My DD is a visual learner... I am soooooo using this. Thanks.
Glad to help....you are so on track with the "something else" question. Sometimes kids can't express whet it is....sometimes it's the seams of their socks! I love to give kids concrete examples of how to recognize stress: tense muscles, clenched jaw, rapid heart rate, shallow breathing, facial flushing, tight stomach muscles, restlessness, etc. For my bright kids, they love to learn about our body's autonomic response system and how they can learn to control their heart rate just through relaxing and concentration. Talk about a
lesson in physiology!
