Our school is focusing on mindfulness techniques for our students this year. Student brains that come from poverty are found to have been hard wired differently than brains that haven't been exposed to trauma. Mindfulness techniques can help to rewire the brains that have been exposed to different traumatic experiences. Yoga is one of these techniques. Your generosity will allow my students to safely practice and learn mindfulness techniques that will serve them in the future to make better choices. Students will be able to practice different yoga poses as well as other mindfulness techniques. Yoga can help my students be mindful in their choices and life decisions.
