I have to inform you that being a diehard Yoga enthusiast & a hands-on Momma, includes some fantastic perks to the son or daughter. Well, now's kids get chained to the bustling lifestyle their parents pull right from toddlerhood. And from the time your child is ready for kindergarten, you get a tiny rat racer who is prepared to have the world. Obviously, using a pygmy degree of STRESS.
I have personally experienced the wonders of frequent YOGA clinic in assisting me de-stress & retaining stress away, aside from weight reduction. When you find something as valuable as Yoga for health, you simply cannot stop recommending it to your very best receptacles of fitness -- CHILDREN.
Kids are innately more responsive than adults to actions that involve body motions, play, songs & pleasure. When it might be somewhat difficult for many people to connect Yoga with drama, music or fun, there are ways that you may be imaginative in using the enjoyable components in there. Like anything else as perky as the "Jungle Boogie" tune playing together when the children do some Animal Yoga presents. Oh wait, I will mention them under.
I would recommend you to quit associating Yoga with excellent acrobat skills, in any respect. Your kid does not need to become a prodigy to perform these really easy Yogasanas (exercise positions ), Which You Can teach from the age of two:
This posture hastens the differently restless mind, helps to focus & is a perfect posture for meditation. Additionally, it can help keep the spine straight hence creating a proper sitting posture.
Tadasana enhances control over the pieces of thighs, viz the growing hamstrings & thighs.
- Standing forward bend (Uttanasana)
Uttanasana understands the tender lower body of kids to some suitable stretching & relaxing condition. It, all the longer, leaves good flexibility across the hips.
Vajrasana helps better digestion whilst strengthening the growing leg muscles.
Vrikshasana is a great pose that kids will like to perform. That is because they would find it intriguing to behave as a tree & disperse its branches up eventually bringing them together in the top. It is great to come up with balance & gets child gain control over their upper & lower body since they maintain the pose completely coordinated. The TREE was among those first poses my child learned in the school.
The arch this downward bending pose entails strengthens the arms, calves & shoulders. And since you bend producing your mind face the ground, you encounter a wonderful dash of pressure along your mind, which emanates a improved blood flow around your mind. So that slowly helps you forget each damn annoyance & overeat in a fantastic pace.
- Cobra pose (Bhujangasana)
That is, incidentally, my favorite pose, which not only can help loosen your differently stressed backbone but also causes your wrists, chest, and shoulders feel powerful. Getting your child to keep this posture for around 20 minutes while working gracefully will cause him/her feel good about doing something refreshing.
Well, this one's is exactly what I taught my daughter throughout the previous week & she is enjoying it absolutely. I especially feel this pose could be adored by all kids because of it's main actions -- roaring like a lion near the very top of the lungs! Children, after all, enjoy creating sound & Simhasana makes them do precisely that. This makes them feel empowered because they like the liberty to create some noise undeterred. The lion present is also one which prevents regular throat infections rather than only children, but adults also.
- Warrior Pose (Veerabhadrasana)
This asana is a complete manifestation of this condition of relaxation to the body & head. Plus it possibly helps kids to see the significance of resting, sleep & breathing. You would observe that with time your toddler begins to break through irregular sleep habits.
