This is where you want to start in Neuro Regulation. You'll want to make sure you do this program slowly and daily initially to improve the communication between your brain and nervous system. 
The goal is to push yourself, but slowly, through this routine until you feel "checked out". 
You may get lightheaded, tired, or feel "zoned out". That's exactly where you want to be. 
When it takes too long or you're not able to get to that zone, then you move on to the next level of routine. 

If you're having your child do this, make sure you are very hands on. As their system becomes overwhelmed, they will move very quickly or incorrectly and it's important these are done right. 

I added an acupressure point at the end to help ground your practice.

With a slight bend in the knees, tip of the tongue resting on the roof of your mouth behind the 2 front teeth; sink down into a comfortable position by bending the knees. Hold your arms out so your hands are at the level of your heart. Focus on your breathing. Imagine energy traveling up your spine as you breathe in and down the front as you breathe out. 

This position will be challenging to hold at first, but with practice, you'll be able to hold it longer.

Qi Gong- Hugging the Tree

Lay on your back and bring your knees towards your chest. 
Cross your arms and place your hands on your opposite shoulders. 
Crawl by bringing your hip and shoulder together on the same side then do the same on the opposite side. You will slowly inch your way forward. 
I have my head slightly off the ground.

The slower you go the more effective this will be.

Back Crawl

Take the pads of your fingers and gently tap them up your face from your jaw line to your cheekbones. 
This brings qi and blood to nourish, tone, and balance this area.

Face Tapping

Lay on your back in star fish position. 
Take opposite hand and opposite knee and have them slowly come together in the center. Repeat on the other side. 

The slower you go the more effective this will be.

Crossovers

This group of four points located on the very top of the head. You can put your entire palm on the top of your head and gently press down to get all of these points. 
Hold for a minimum of two minutes. Repeat if you feel you need more time here.
