a practice and routine that integrates physical, mental and emotional
development, including:
-
Simple breathing techniques to slow down the nervous system,
develop self-control and connect children with their feelings

Yoga poses to release energy, learn compassion, and develop
strength, concentration and self-confidence
-
Counseling games and social/emotional processes that develop
patience, mindfullness, compassion, leadership, and other social/emotional
skills

Relaxation techniques and storytelling to calm the body and
mind and integrate physical, emotional and cognitive experiences

or learning difficulties as a way to develop personal awareness
and specific strategies to maintain focus, and manage emotions
and impulses. Over time Yoga Calm skills and practices develop
greater health, self-mastery and well-being. Ages 7 - 12.
