Yoga is a group of practices that we can integrate into our lifestyles to gain a sense of stillness in the mind. We learn to take an observer perspective stepping outside of ego and the rules we have integrated into our being since childhood. There are physical movements or asanas but there are cleansing rituals and spiritual ways of being that are incorporated in the whole lifestyle that the ancient Indian scriptures have taught us. I aim to bring the threads of my awareness as a psychologist, healer and yoga teacher to enable those I co-create experiences with to reach their full potential. I firmly believe that even with the purely physical aspects of asana we can learn so much about how we approach life on the mat and apply this to life off the mat. The more and more awareness we develop the more able we are to approach life with a calmness and sense of inner peace and joy. This course explores how yoga can help children to regulate emotions, boost self-esteem, improve body awareness, enhance concentration and memory and develop strength and flexibility. As parents it is a way to bond, have some fun times and create secure relationships. This course is appropriate for parents of children age 2-17. I work just with parents as there is a lot of material to cover and it is aimed on the parent facilitating yoga with the child to enhance relationships.
This course covers:
- Benefits of Yoga for children
- Benefits of shared activity with parents in child development
- Pranayama and Mudras
- Creative pastimes
- Yoga Asana
- Creating Narratives
