Late-elementary student reflections...

(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!

Quotes from early elementary students...

What do you like about yoga?

'It can make you peaceful after a very loud day.'

'What I like best is when we do the Sun Salute and when we sing the *Peace Song.'

'What I like best is the Sun Salute.'

'What I like best is doing the Bending Tree.'

'I don't really have a favorite thing about yoga; what I do like is just yoga.'

'I like Seaweed (pose).'

'My favorite thing is the Peace Song* and the Sun Salute.'

*The Peace Song is adapted from Ajeet Kaur's lyrics, and is: 'Peace within me, peace surrounding me, peace from me, everywhere let there be peace.'

Hard to describe how amazing sharing yoga with children is...

Gotta love these mini yogis...

The Gift of Teaching Yoga

Last week in one of my my early elementary yoga programs, we talked about positive affirmations - when we think positive things about ourselves, we are more likely to see those positive things happening.  It also easily translates to things we are grateful for.  We did an art project where the children drew a self-portrait, and then wrote positive affirmations about themselves.  Things they wrote included:  I love my family.  I take good care of myself.  I am caring.  I am generous.  I am kind.  I am helpful.  I am patient.  Several days later, Louisa was inspired to do this on her own at home...

...I love the work that I do.
