"I found several helpful strategies in this presentation: I will use the "Just Breathe" video with my students for sure. I also plan to incorprate the Rainbow Breathing activity for mindfulness. I can make it a class art project, then put their poster up in the room for a reference. Periodically, we can refer to that visual as we do the breathing. I am excited to try these ideas!"-SLP
