Yoga isn’t just the physical poses; intentional breathing (and therefore mindfulness) are an integral part of it. Yoga and Mindfulness for Young Children explains the physical and social-emotional benefits of incorporating yoga into early childhood classrooms. Readers do not have to have any experience with yoga to be able to use this book, and the ideas and suggestions are easily modified to suit an individual teacher’s needs.
Ilene and Maureen share how to do nine specific breathing techniques and sixty-three different poses with children. The poses are grouped by ten different categories:
back-bending poses
forward-bending poses
harmony poses (about balance)
just for fun (offer emotional release)
lying down poses
partner poses (in pairs)
sitting down poses
standing upright poses
twisting poses
upside-down poses
Information on how do yoga with children with diverse abilities is included.
