A friend posted this video on her facebook page and I LOVE it!
Conscious breathing changes EVERYTHING. I teach kids all different styles of pranayama and they respond positively. Not only that - they do it on their own! At school, at home and with friends.
I guess this whole yoga with kids thing - including conscious breathing - is going mainstream when Sesame Street includes the techniques in their show :) Awesome. If kids learn to breathe with awareness...when they are mad or sad, we can change the world. When kids learn to slow their breath down and relax we can teach them to create a sanctuary within - regardless of what is happening around them.

Sometimes this means we have to learn to breathe! With all the stress, lack of sleep, and rushing parents do in their lives it's no surprise breathing isn't on the top of your list. I will say - when you learn AND teach your kids conscious breathing you can shift your world. Parents tell me about it all the time. Just yesterday a sweet momma told me about her 11 month old daughter doing long deep breathing with her when she starts meltdown.
You can do it too!
Send me an email if you are interested and we can make a plan to get your family breathing!
Have fun, create more relaxation and make space in your life and your kiddos.
Inhale.....and exhale
