What is a Cozy Corner?
A cozy corner is a corner in your house that is set up to be a calming, comfortable place to relax, decompress, chill out, rebalance your emotions, meditate, reflect, read or journal. It is sometimes called a Calming Corner.
They are used in Pre-Schools to help kids regulate their emotions and remove themselves if things become over stimulating. This teaches coping skills and how to self soothe.
As a Mom, I get over stimulated too. We can all benefit from our own cozy corner.
