From muscle relaxation and box breathing to sensory grounding techniques, these tools provide children and adults alike with ways to manage anxiety anywhere. We even create a fun challenge for Arie to rate his plane landings on a scale of one to ten, transforming a potentially stressful moment into an engaging activity.The conversation takes delightful turns through Arie's recent accomplishments, particularly his baking adventures. His pride in creating nine perfectly arranged chocolate chip cookies and a memorable Lego-shaped cake highlights how everyday activities build confidence and joy. These moments remind us that preparing for adventures involves more than just packing bags – it's about bringing our whole selves, complete with skills, strategies, and curiosity about the world around us.
