Why yoga for kids?
"Being mindful means having your mind on what you are doing. It's the opposite of rushing or doing too many things at once. To be mindful, you slow down to take your time. You do one thing at a time. You focus on what you're doing in a calm way." 💻 Definition pulled from kidshealth.org
We don't really think of kids being busy, or stressed, or over scheduled, but it definitely happens a lot. They get overwhelmed and overstimulated, just like the rest of us, but it shows up in different ways. The practices of mindfulness, yoga poses, and introduction meditation techniques can be extremely beneficial to mental and physical well being. Every class (somehow!) we transition from super wound-up kids, to a collective sense of calm and moving more slowly. But you don't need to take my word for it, take a class near you and see for yourself!
