Unity plays an
essential part in positive children's development. It lies
at the core of defining one's unique talents and skills as well as of
establishing self-discipline and healthy habits. Through Yoga and
relaxation practice, children become more knowledgeable, strong,
focused, and centered individual ready to face the fast-paced
life challenges and
ever changing social life-style. As the primary purpose of
schools is to educate, it is the best place to guide children through
their developmental period toward becoming strong individuals.
Schools that create an environment where children can get an optimal
support in their autonomous behavior play very important role in
children's behavior-management skills. It is always more
difficult to control, change, or influence the external circumstances
than to be in control of one's own inner Self. To learn how to
establish healthy habits through self-control and discipline, as well
as how to honor one's unique talents and skills it's essential for
developing positive attitude toward a happy and healthy self-guided
life. Through well defined self-knowledge, children become
accountable for their own actions, make the right and honest decisions
not being swayed by external circumstances or pressures, and thus
setting a strong foundation for healthy, happy, and fulfilling life, while being solely
responsible for their own life course. The Best Learning Comes from Experience. Yoga is not a once a week activity, but rather a way of life. As children get involved in executing Yoga asana (postures) more properly with each practice while focusing on breathing and balancing their bodies, their minds become clearer, more focused, and calm. At the same time, their bodies gain strength, flexibility, and agility. Their redeemed lightness of being enhances their overall life style. They become more conscious, more aware, and more mindful. Yoga practice and its nutrition guidelines naturally establish healthy eating habits. Obesity and other by-products of unhealthy lifestyle will gradually subside with regular Yoga practice. The Yoga Benefits for Children. The overall beneficial properties from Yoga practice suggest the importance of making Yoga a way of one's life. It is essential for children to have the same guidance and support in parents as well as in their teachers. Parents and teachers working together in making Yoga practice a child's daily routine will strengthen child's Yoga experience and its full benefits. The Enhanced Classroom Learning Experience. The role of education is to teach not only how to be successful materially, but also how to be successful as people. In addition to facts, students need to learn skills more clearly focused on human needs and interests. The classroom experience for teachers and children could improve if children were able to learn how to focus and concentrate, how to attain self-knowledge and self-control, how to get along with others, and even more importantly, how to get along with oneself, how to live healthfully, how to develop one’s talents and abilities, and how to live a balanced life. While the primary purpose of schools is to educate, it is the best place to guide children through their developmental period toward evolving into strong and responsible individuals. The most important role of schools is to create an environment where children can get an optimal support in their autonomous and positive development.
