Any age works
Deep breaths – slow deep breaths. Inhale, count 1-4 and slowly exhale, count backwards if you like…..4,3,2,1. Always slowly- not sudden or quick counts or quick breathing. That doesn’t work. You may even feel like you’re hyperventilating, so it’s not effective. Deep breathing helps you slow down, take a pause. Step back. Nothing is too urgent that you have to make a snap or impulsive decision. This used to be my behavior, that I had to overcome. I still do it every once in a while. I’ve just evolved a lot. It really takes time and lots of repetition. During my introspection, I had lots of practice with raising my two kids during the course of my life.
Enjoy and have at it :)
