Calm Corner, Safe Space, Meditation Station: Whatever you call it, creating an area in your home or classroom for children to balance their energy can be incredibly powerful.

In this episode of Mindful Conversations with KAY, Kelly and Kristi describe their successful Calm Corners including:

• recognizing body signals and utilizing tools to self-regulate
• setting rules for Calm Corners
• best tools and props to fill your Calm Corner
