Breathing

Simon Lancaster

Chapter Chapter 7 in Winning Minds, 2015, pp 104-108 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Every parent has a child care secret they proudly share with anyone who wants to listen, so here’s mine: when my daughters were babies and going through the inevitable sleepless nights, I had a little technique to turn them from screaming banshees to gorgeous Buddhas in minutes. I held them tightly to my chest and deliberately imitated their breathing. Then I slowed it down. As my chest pressed out, so would theirs; before long our breathing would sync. We’d be breathing in harmony.
