Our high school alternative students experience stress and violence outside of their school day. While we cannot do a lot to keep them from experiencing this type of stress, we can bring in stress-reduction programs such as restorative yoga to help our students manage their stress and their reactions to these stressors. The restorative yoga equipment will help us to teach our students to manage their stress and how to breathe through this stress. We need 15 yoga mats, 15 yoga straps, 15 yoga bolsters, and 30 yoga blocks. Restorative yoga will help students to control their breath and their thoughts by practicing mental stillness through the use of props that promotes relaxation. Different from regular yoga, restorative yoga helps unite mind, body, and spirit by holding poses longer and by allowing the mind and body to completely relax; true relaxation and letting go is something our students seldom experience.
