Steps: 

1.Have the students stand up with both arms out, feet placed wide apart, and knees slightly bent.

2.Provide the instructions: As I say “the wind is blowing,” you should move softly as if the wind is blowing through the trees, waving your arms from side to side, and forwards and backwards like a tree in the wind.

3.Have the students close their eyes and take a few deep breaths.

4.Begin the activity.

5.After a few minutes have the students take a few more deep breaths, standing in silence. Ask the students to open their eyes and put down their arms.
