Thank you for this and congratulations to those who built it! This is a noteworthy achievement. I taught high school for a number of years, and I still miss this creative energy.

Teens typically feel a 4 out of 5 calmer after a breathing exercise.

Our teen focus group found that a single breathing session helped them feel significantly calmer.
