YOGA
Our children live in a hurry-up world of busy parents, school pressures, incessant lessons, video games and competitive sports. We usually don’t think of these influences as stressful for our kids, but often they are.
Children derive enormous benefits from yoga. Physically, it enhances their flexibility, strength, coordination, and body awareness. In addition, their concentration and sense of calmness and relaxation improves. Doing yoga, children exercise, play, connect more deeply with the inner self, and develop an intimate relationship with the natural world that surrounds them. Yoga brings that marvelous inner light that all children have to the surface.
This week all classes took part in their first yoga sessions. Everyone enjoyed the experience and found them very relaxing!
Yoga will continue in school every Friday for all children until the summer holidays.
