//Mental Health Awareness Month//
Shining light on the Orenda Society, if you have not checked us out please do @orendasociety We love all the support we get from our community, and are always looking to bring our programming to youth everywhere.✨ #youthmentalhealth #spreadthelove #yogaforschools #mentorship
There is a growing need to provide support to youth and we recognize that they have their own unique challenges, expectations, and stressors to navigate during their growth. ✨
We believe yoga and mindfulness coupled with strong mentorship can be impactful on youth in helping to develop a greater sense of self awareness. ✨
We believe in creating a safe space without judgement so that youth can reflect, move, create, share, and just be. We hear you. We see you. ✨

If you haven’t read this book to your kids yet, then it’s time!
♂️
I love everything about this book; the message, the practice and the cutest illustrations ever!!
♀️
You can use this book to introduce yoga to children or use it as a deeper exploration into what is yoga... It’s also a great tool to learn how to do yoga poses and how they feel on emotional level!
Thank you @peterhreynolds and @susanverde for creating this educational, meaningful and entertaining book!

HOW DOES KIDS YOGA WIRE THE BRAIN FOR LEARNING?
I get asked this question by parents and teachers all the time! You see, most of the children who are having some difficulties at school with attention, concentration, memory, handwriting, letter reversals etc all have one thing in common, retained Primitive Reflexes
My job is to mimic these reflexes using specific yoga movements and breath sequences to help the brain integrate, develop and organize
I’m not exactly sure when I started Yoga.. I do know that I was lucky enough to grow up with it from a young age. As a child growing up in Africa, my mother was an Iyengar Yoga teacher so the culture was always around me. As a young teenager, I was the only young male practicing and it really helped me build confidence, correct my posture, and develop body awareness. As a father, It blows my mind to see Koa show so much interest in Yoga from such a young age - she loves downdog, handstands and of course child’s pose.

Yoga has been such a huge part of my life from the start. I was lucky enough to share this experience with the @aloyoga family, and help them develop a program through Alo Gives to bring the practice of Yoga to millions of children through online videos. Check it out on alogives.com! #alogives.

How old were you when you started Yoga?
39 years on planet earth and the for the last 12 years I have been practicing yoga.. Yoga for me started as an outlet due to my highly stressful Emergency room nursing job and becoming a new mommy to the cutest little man..For me Yoga was fundamental in helping me deal with not only work related stress but day to day newness of being a working mom.. and honestly Yoga is still that for me today! As a mother of two now, I have started introducing this valuable life “tool” to my children, and it is absolutely fantastic to see them just breathe and take a moment to connect to themselves and let go of everything else.. Yoga and mindfulness is so powerful and therapeutic, and when introduced at an early age we have the ability to change the trajectory of future leaders. @aloyoga is trying to introduce this valuable tool #yoga to children at a younger age through Alo Gives, which is a nonprofit foundation that is dedicated to bringing yoga to children and underserved communities.
Alo Gives is a free scholastic approved 12-week program designed for the classroom or at home with fun 5-minute videos that introduce kids to the mental & physical skills needed for social and emotional learning.
Alo’s goal, by the end of the year, is to bring yoga to 2-million schoolkids!! How awesome is that? I absolutely love this mission and I’m so proud to be a part of a community that’s helping make yoga accessible to everyone. Check it out online. @alogives is available to anyone for free on www.alogives.com
