Many children suffer from stress due to concerns about climate change, global warming and pollution as well as terrorism and street violence that they hear about on the news. Stress hormones suppress the immune response, relaxation allows the immune system to recover and so function more effectively.

Relax Kids can also be used outside school either before or after; at bedtime; set up a chill out corner; weekly family chill night or during travelling.
