When I received the YogaBuddies Bed Time Stories DVD, took time to explain to Juju the benefits yoga would offer him, both to his health and mentality. I wanted to possibly spark his interest so that he would want to learn and practice.
A funny story about Ju and yoga - we were painting in the house and things were a bit hectic around here. My jujubean was allowed to help where he could and was then shooed out of the room so Mom & Dad could finish up. He kept coming in wanting to help and I'd suggest something he could do while I was busy. I could tell it was a frustrating day for him. At some point I took a break and came into to find him, he was sitting on top of a five gallon paint bucket sitting Indian style, his eyes closed, chanting Om. After he finished I asked him where he learned that. He told me Grandma. I asked him how it made him feel - he said happy. I asked my Mom if she had taught him Om. She said she hadn't even thought of Om for years! We don't know where he picked it up but I encouraged him to practice it if made him feel happy.
YogaBuddies has really engaged him and has become a part of his days. He calls himself a yoga master and has invited his cousins over to teach them. They all enjoy doing YogaBuddies and we really enjoy watching them :)
I am grateful that YogaBuddies has sparked his interest that I will encourage and cultivate as long as he has that interest. Yoga is a wonderful tool to have and for a child who has had problems with self control I want to gave him as many tools as I can to help him learn that control and ways to calm his mind.
I am thrilled with YogaBuddies Bed Time Stories and suggest it to all of you as a way to spark interest of yoga in your child.
WIN IT!!!
