Breathe Carterton

07/09/2026

Breathe Carterton is changing!

For the last year, I’ve been running my Breathe Carterton sessions as a space for adults to slow down, breathe and learn more about how the way we breathe affects how we feel.

But I’ve had a few requests from parents asking whether I could offer something for parents and their babies or toddlers too,
and actually, this feels like a really natural next step.

When I first became a breathing coach, supporting children was always part of the bigger picture for me.

We’re seeing children growing up in a world that can place increasing demands on their nervous systems, with rising challenges around stress, anxiety, emotional regulation and mental wellbeing. I believe that learning simple tools to support the nervous system and healthy breathing patterns from an early age can be incredibly valuable.

Also, When I became a new parent, I remember how overwhelming it could feel. There was always someone who needed something, and finding time for yourself could feel almost impossible
just one minute of slowing down and breathing consciously can make a difference, I didnt know that then.

Alongside my Oxygen Advantage instructor training, I’ve also completed a Certificate in Children and Young People’s Mental Health, as well as additional breath training in supporting better breathing in children.

So, rather than continuing with the previous adult Breathe Carterton session, I’m offering a free 30-minute parent & baby/toddler Breathe session. 💛

This isn't class where you need your child to sit quietly or behave perfectly!

Quite the opposite.

Your baby or toddler can wriggle, crawl, play, feed, cuddle, make noise or need your attention. This is about finding a few minutes to breathe and relax while being a parent — not escaping from being one.

We'll spend around 15 minutes practising simple breathing techniques for you, followed by some practical information and tips about supporting healthy breathing for both you and your child as they grow.

Little things can make a difference
from encouraging nasal breathing to something as simple as helping children learn to blow their nose effectively so they can keep their nose clear and open.

My hope is that this becomes a little moment of calm in the week
a place where you can take a breath, learn something useful and leave feeling just a little more supported.

We will meet at the bandstand on the Rec in Carterton then decide on the best spot to sit for our outdoor session while the weather allows for it, because getting time in the daylight is an incredibly important physiological need.
For the winter I hope to find a suitable indoor venue.

So if this sounds like something you and your little one would enjoy, I'd love to hear from you.

First session will be Tuesday 15th September at 10am

Comment below or send me a message if you'd be interested in coming along.

And if you know a new parent who could really use five minutes to breathe, please tag them or share this with them.

Does your child ever struggle with big feelings, worry, overwhelm, poor sleep or finding their calm?

What many parents don't realise is that something as simple as breathing can make a big difference

As part of Carterton celebrates i am running my childrens wellbeing workshop for FREE

Carterton family centre
JULY 26TH - 2PM
Booking required
Spaces are limited

Many children who are feeling anxious or are being hyperactive are told to “just breathe” or "calm down"— but aren’t actually shown how, this can be more confusing than helpful.

🦥 In Susie Sloth Workshops, children learn simple, playful ways to use their breathing to feel calmer, more confident, and more in control

It's an interactive, play-based wellbeing session best suited to children aged 5-10 years, but younger/older siblings or older developmentally delayed children are also welcome.

Through games, movement, stories, connection and practical breathwork inspired by the award winning wellbeing book, Susie Sloth and her Secret Superpower, families learn playful techniques they can continue together at home.

Children are guided to explore:

What calm feels like in their bodies
How breathing can help with big emotions
How to slow down and reset when things feel overwhelming
How breathing well supports health, energy and learning

They will develop:

Skills to help them manage big feelings and feel more confident and in control of their emotions.
Tools to improve focus and concentration for learning, and to build resilience and self awareness

Please DM me to book

Better breathing isn’t about taking bigger breaths to get more oxygen for more energy. It’s about creating better conditions for the body to do what it’s designed to do.

We often talk about “having energy” like it’s something we either wake up with… or don’t.

The food industry has made us believe if we 'need energy' we should eat something full of sugar

And, yes we need a consistent good amount and quality of sleep to wake up refreshed,
We need to eat a good balanced diet to give our body the resources it needs for energy.

But, energy isn’t something we simply HAVE.
It’s something we CREATE.
Your body creates energy through movement, oxygen, circulation, adaptability, and demand.
The body responds to what we ask of it.
When we move well, breathe well, and create the right conditions internally, our cells can produce energy more efficiently.
And breathing is a huge part of that.

Functional breathing helps improve oxygen delivery and carbon dioxide tolerance — both essential for efficient energy production, recovery, focus, and resilience.
When we feel tired, stressed, in pain, or overwhelmed, we often breathe in ways that actually reduce efficiency:
• shallow breathing
• mouth breathing
• upper chest breathing
• over-breathing
The result?
More tension. Less efficiency. More fatigue.

Movement creates demand.
Breathing supports the system.
The body responds.

Energy follows function.

That’s why functional breathing retraining can impact:
✔ energy
✔ recovery
✔ stress resilience
✔ movement quality
✔ sleep
✔ pain
✔ performance

Your body is always responding to the signals you give it.

Breathe better.
Move better.
Create better energy.
