Sometimes it seems like yoga and meditation are only for wealthy folks who can afford to go to a fancy studio or wellness retreat. It doesn't have to be that way -- and it shouldn't be that way! The benefits of yoga, meditation, and mindfulness are undeniable and I want to bring these practices to at-risk teens. I am a certified yoga instructor (200hr) and have been practicing for over a decade. I've been working with our Dean of Students to identify kids who would benefit from breath work to aid with self-regulation and stress reduction. At our last class, eight students attended, but we only had five mats. Since our dance/yoga studio is in a converted auto shop, it still smells like a garage! The essential oils would help set the mood and create an oasis of calm. Additional mats and props are necessary for our budding program to grow.
