Headaches and Stomach Aches

We've been in school since Aug 6th and I decided to try something different with the kiddos and it has been a blessing!

So I've been using the WOW tx for Headaches and the Grounding Exercise for stomach aches, anxiety and the general "I just don't feel good". They really do work! The majority of my kids are ready to return to class after doing either one. Salt water gargle is the miracle cure for sore throat this year as well! ?

With the grounding exercise, the WOW tx and salt water gargles I've sent nearly no one home AND I don't have a lot of repeat offenders! ?

Thought I would share. Anything that can help us keep our students in class is a bonus!

This seems like it could be really fun, too! A good way to connect with the kids.

I'm not a school nurse, but these examples and posters are so uplifting. Strong work!
