This course teaches Yoga & Meditation as a path toward Mindfulness.

Mindfulness practices hold the key to success in all aspects of our life, including academic achievement, happiness and compassion. Yoga offers many benefits for growth and development by making us more flexible and aware. It teaches us how to use our most powerful tool, our minds.

Lessons will include breathing techniques to facilitate focus, emotional regulation and physical wellbeing. Postures will be taught, not only as a means to hold our attention steady, but also as a way to find a nutritious movement that will help with postural alignment and correct imbalances. We will work on flexibility and balance of mind and body. Mindfulness is a skill that requires practice so repetition of any of the classes highly recommended.

Course Goals: This class is designed to help you gain more control of your mind, including peace of mind. It emphasizes the importance of awareness of our thoughts and patterns of movement so that we can lead happy and healthy lives. The more we can deliberately hold our attention on our intended point of focus the stronger our focus becomes thus the more purpose and direction we have in life.

Target Audience: This class is design for children over 10 years old and teens.

Course Requirements: This course requires basic movements can be performed like standing, sitting on the floor with the option to sit on a pillow or blanket and ability to put partial weight on your hands. You will also need the space to perform them in. A yoga mat is helpful but not required.

Course Includes:

Hours of Video: 6hrs and 40 minutes, average 20 minute lessons can be repeated as often as you like daily. It includes 21 lessons and 5 printable sheets with pose discriptions and diagrams.

It is my great hope that one day yoga and meditation will be as common in schools as math and English. While our studies in language, history and science are all very beneficial they are information downloads. On the other hand Yoga and meditation are the exercises for using our minds with focus and awareness. Without the ability to control our minds attention, learning is more challenging. Where we hold our attention is here we direct the course of our life. Imagine a child that has the tools she needs for focused learning, emotional regulation and clarity of mind. Yoga and Meditation practices lead to mindfulness. Mindfulness is the key to wellbeing, happiness, focus and academic achievement.
