"It's not about being good at something. It's about being good to yourself."
Over the past decade there has been a huge increase in children and parents taking up yoga. Many, many people are seeing first-hand how yoga benefits children and adults alike. Doctors and nurses, even mental health professionals, neurologists, teachers and the Government are beginning to recognise how yoga benefits children’s mental health and physical wellbeing.
The benefits of yoga for you and your child are endless, yoga:
-Gives your child confidence
-Promotes healthy bodies
-Improves concentration
-Introduces mindfulness
-Helps manage stress
-Improves balance
It’s easy to see why more and more schools and nurseries are encouraging the need for yoga in their classrooms. Children and toddlers who learn yoga at an early age have a healthy head start in life. This is certainly important at the moment with our fast-paced and stressful world. Through bringing increased awareness to the external environment and to the internal experience of the body and the mind, children will benefit psychologically and emotionally. Children can easily learn these techniques to become lifelong tools.
Yoga is all about the connection with your mind and your body and what makes it such a beautiful thing to bring into your home and introduce to your family.
