Bullying and violence are a major problem in schools and among youth. This special episode will focus on how yoga-based techniques are proving effective in bully proofing our children and classrooms.
Dee Marie, of Calming Kids, will share her ground-breaking program that teaches yoga and conflict management skills to youth giving them the skills needed to be calm and compassionate, strong and resilient. We’ll also discuss the recent Harvard study results of the program. Also joining us is Cheryl Crawford (Grounded), with the program Quest for Elevation which is used in schools to teach yoga based techniques to combat bullying.
Find out how yoga can empower your children and stop bullying.

So wonderful! Social and emotional education is crucial to the prevention of bullying. It’s great to see so many school-based yoga programs integrating this into programming. Yoga 4 Classrooms (www.yoga4classrooms.com) is another program with this focus as is Shanti Generation (www.shantigeneration.com).
Keep us the great work!
