With all the uncertainty around going back to school, teachers, parents and children alike are naturally feeling anxious – at the least!
What I love about sharing yoga with kids (and adults!) is how easily it helps even the busiest of minds to calm down.
A great way to boost self esteem in children is to use an affirmation. I’m a huge fan of affirmations for kids, and have been using them for years now – personally – and in my children’s yoga lessons.
This week we look at how to build self esteem in children with some easy to implement child self-esteem activities to use in the classroom or home, perhaps as part of a yoga session.
Visualisation is a powerful tool for all of us, including children. Here I guide you through a visualisation to build a child’s confidence to share with your children.
Some kids naturally have more confident characters than others – but I do believe that we can all learn to be more confident.
So how can yoga build a child’s confidence?
If you’re homeschooling right now this breathing exercise is a great way to help your children focus and get them ready for learning.
Hello and welcome to another episode of the Real Yoga for Kids Show!
Today I have a special breathing technique class episode for you to share with your kids.
Increased ability to focus is one of the big reasons that schools are drawn to offering yoga to their pupils – and understandably so.
Not only does enhanced focus help us to achieve more – it builds self-esteem and confidence.
Welcome back to another episode of the Real Yoga for Kids Show!
Last week I talked to you about 3 of the magic ways that great children’s yoga is able to balance energy levels – to leave pretty much all kids feeling calm and relaxed by the end (when taught right!).
One of the main reasons I love sharing yoga with children so much, is the incredible effect it has on balancing their energy levels and helping kids calm down.
Learning to breathe properly and practise specific breathing exercises, are a big part of what makes yoga so holistically beneficial.
Isn’t it amazing that so many people go through life, not breathing fully!
We can teach kids early on how to breathe for optimal physical and emotional wellbeing.
