Our focus for some of our new younger students this next term is a book called '...Peaceful Piggy Yoga' by Kerry Lee MacLean. Aimed at 4-7 years it is perfect for introducing little ones to yoga and includes lots of classic yoga poses.
I will be sharing bits of this book with you over the next few weeks, so those of you who cannot make the classes can share it with your little ones.
To start, for those of you who do not already do yoga, here is what the author says:
'Yoga is a series of gentle stretches that bring joy and relaxation. You should never stretch muscles to the point of pain, but just enough to feel a nice pull. Try to hold each pose for at least three deep breaths. The Peaceful Piggy Yoga series is safe for piggies of all ages. It can be done at home to spend time with parents, brothers and sisters; at school in the classroom (before a test or just to calm and quiet everyone); and just about anywhere with your friends. Regular practice teaches piggies that caring for their minds and bodies feels good-and it can even be fun!'
So you can see, yoga is for everyone, everywhere, to share with anyone :)
More from this book later, in the meantime, Beaming Buddhas wishes you a Beamingly Beautiful weekend, BB x
