Teen Yoga Classes Thurles with Marie Mills
Teen Yoga…
is always a success!
Teen Yoga in schools is a great way to educate the students on the various types of stress reduction techniques that are available. And Yoga is one of the best educational systems to restore balance and recalibrate the breathing and posture…all vitally important for optimal learning!
In my experience both Male and Female teenagers take on the experience of Yoga
with a light heart,
many come to my classes quite sceptical and a little wary,
alot of students bring a touch of experimentation into unknown territory,
the majority have a true curiosity to just what can Yoga do for them personally, if anything at all.
Yoga for teens holds tremendous value for the development of personal Self inquiry through the physical and mental investigation of the Yoga components.
Teen Yoga in schools is easily adapted to class format:
-Marie uses Yoga physical practices to redirect the mind from school work to singular focused attention.
-Marie brings her own Yoga mats for the students, if the school cannot provide them. There are many spaces to bring Yoga into a school, it is even viable in a classroom if a hall is not available.
-Skills for correct breathing is an integral part of Yoga and a large part of stress management and relaxation therapy.
-Yoga Nidra is a form of concentration and focus to restore and rebalance the mind and body.
-Once the teens have adapted to the novelty of Yoga, we develop relaxation skills and mind focus to affirm the power of the mind and to learn the basics of mindfulness.
Science shows that meditation enhances our sleep, and helps to re-balance sleep patterns including insomnia and anxiety that disturbs sleep. And most importantly mindfulness and focus create the optimal mental environment for memory and comprehension as these skills allow stress, tension and anxiety to exit the mind anytime we are aware of their presence.
This is just one area that Teen Yoga in schools can help teens under exam year stress. Tools for stress relief that will be support for any other stress, tension or anxiety they may come across in the future.
Yoga is not a panacea for all ills, it does not remove stress, it cannot take away the experiences that come towards us.
Teen Yoga in schools does help us to be less fearful of stress, giving us a better view of what stress is, how it is created and can be made worse. And opposite to that, exactly how stress relief and stress management skills are also valuable tools for Life.
