(From a previous session): On our
last class during relaxation, I read them a cloud visualization where we
drifted up into the sky on a soft, fluffy white cloud, and they were
able to let the cloud take them wherever they wanted it to take them.
At the end of the class I asked them to answer three questions (if they
wanted to): 1) where they went on their cloud, 2) what they liked best
about yoga, and 3) what it meant to practice peace (a principle of yoga
that we talk about often, also called 'ahimsa'). These were their
responses:
1) I went to Heaven. My dog and great-grandparents were there. 2) I
like the magic mist (lavender oil and water that I spray over them
during relaxation to help them relax a little more) and the
visualizations. They help me to feel calm and relaxed. 3) Always have a
friendly smile, use kind words and always be nice.
1) I went to Heaven. My grandparents were there. 2) Relaxation time.
3) When there's someone new at school, don't avoid them; talk to them,
be kind, share with them.
1) I was with my family. 2) I like that yoga is peaceful, quiet, not
loud; I can concentrate on one thing. 3) Be yourself, don't change
because someone else wants you to; be honest.
I am blessed!
