What our OT says?
As an OT, I highly recommend blowing bubbles as a sensory regulation activity to promote relaxation and calmness. This simple yet effective technique has a profound impact on an individual's emotional state, helping to:
- Reducing Stress and Anxiety:
-
- Blowing bubbles engages the breath and encourages slow, rhythmic breathing. This deep breathing activates the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and reducing stress.
- The visual appeal of floating bubbles can distract from anxious thoughts and provide a calming focus.
- Regulating Sensory Processing:
-
- The tactile sensation of touching bubbles provides sensory input. It can be soothing for individuals who are sensitive to touch or need sensory modulation.
- The visual tracking of bubbles as they float and pop supports visual processing and attention.
- Improving Mood and Emotional Regulation:
-
- Bubble blowing is a joyful and playful activity. It releases endorphins (the “feel-good” hormones) and can lift mood.
- The act of blowing bubbles allows children and adults to express emotions in a non-threatening way. It’s a safe outlet for emotional release.
-
Enhancing Focus and Concentration:
- Focusing on creating and observing bubbles requires attention. It encourages mindfulness and concentration.
- For children, following the bubbles’ movement helps develop visual tracking skills.
-
Promoting Deep Breathing and Relaxation:
- Blowing bubbles naturally involves slow, deliberate breaths. This type of breathing activates the body’s relaxation response.
- The repetitive motion of bubble blowing can be meditative, calming the mind and body.
