Little Bodies, Big Minds: Paediatric OT Uncovered

Importance of Breathing


Listen Later

In this episode of Little Bodies, Big Minds, we explore the powerful connection between breathing, the nervous system, and a child’s ability to function and thrive. We talk about how breath acts as a regulator for the nervous system—supporting calm, focus, and emotional balance—and why this matters so much in both everyday life and therapy. We dive into the role of the deep core and postural muscles, how they support functional movement and regulation, and why breath is the foundation for postural stability. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or therapist, this episode will give you valuable insights into how something as automatic as breathing can unlock big changes in little bodies.
