Rules for conducting breathing exercises
Undoubtedly, classes will be most effective if they are carried out not only during a lesson with a speech therapist, but also periodically repeated at home. Parents need to remember that breathing exercises and games can tire the child and even cause slight dizziness, so it is important to consider some conditions:
- It is best to exercise before meals.
- The room in which classes are held must be well ventilated. It's even better if you have the opportunity to exercise outdoors.
- You cannot use the artillery attack tactics. Classes should not be long. 3-5 minutes at a time is quite enough.
- A teacher or one of the parents needs to monitor the correctness of the breathing process. During breathing, the shoulders should not rise, the muscles of the neck, face or abdomen should not tense.
