Pet of the week<br />
One-year-old King is a loyal, loving and smart Pitbull mix. He<br />
is up-to-date and has been neutered. He quickly became a staff<br />
favorite at the Northeast Animal Shelter located in Salem, MA.<br />
King enjoys rides in the car, going on hikes, playing ball and thinks<br />
he is a lap dog. He knows the commands for “sit” and “wait” and is<br />
always eager to learn more. Currently he is at Loyal Canines, but<br />
he is available for adoption through the Northeast Animal Shelter.<br />
Please call 978-745-9888 to set up a meet and greet. You can watch<br />
King in action on his special video @ www.Vimeo.com/213899150.<br />
Why should I introduce my child to yoga?<br />
Children, or Kiddie Yogis as I<br />
like to call them, are like sponges.<br />
They will soak up anything that<br />
you pour over them, so why not<br />
yoga. The rewards are endless and<br />
it’s a fun way for both children<br />
and adults to discover a healthy<br />
and happy balanced well-being.<br />
Yoga is not something new that<br />
just arrived on the exercise scene<br />
or a fad. In fact, it originated in<br />
India over 5000 years ago and is<br />
a combined practice of physical<br />
and emotional exercises that can<br />
create inner-peace.<br />
As children develop a practice<br />
they become more aware. They<br />
learn to listen, trust their natural<br />
instincts and begin to discover<br />
emotional balance.<br />
The controlled breathing of an<br />
advanced practice is introduced<br />
slowly to children…we do after<br />
all take 20,000 breaths per day<br />
KIDS YOGA<br />
so why not start at an early age.<br />
Teaching children to breathe in<br />
a more mindful manner- in with<br />
the good and out with the bad is<br />
a great thing. With that we can<br />
teach them to take in good feelings<br />
(positivity) and purge bad/<br />
sad (negativity) feelings, as a<br />
route to emotional well-being.<br />
During kids yoga classes the<br />
Sanskrit names of the poses take<br />
on a new identity-they become:<br />
frog, snake, airplane, ballerina,<br />
goal post, and rock. Kid’s classes<br />
are designed to be kid friendly!<br />
Yoga Alliance states that<br />
there are many benefits of children’s<br />
yoga, including:<br />
• Enhances concentration<br />
• Increases self –esteem<br />
• Teaches present moment<br />
awareness/mindfulness<br />
• Cultivates a peaceful and relaxed<br />
state of body and mind<br />
• Provides tools for stress<br />
management<br />
• Encourages visualization<br />
• Promote kind interactions<br />
• Enhance body awareness, including<br />
the benefits of breathing<br />
exercises<br />
• Teaches discipline and inner<br />
peace<br />
• Paves the way for a lifelong tradition<br />
for mind/body wellness<br />
• Noncompetitive exercise appropriate<br />
for all levels<br />
