			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h5>Guest post by Jennifer Cohen Harper</h5>
<p>This activity, inspired by Thich Nhat Hanh&#8217;s pebble meditation, connects students to aspects of nature and the different kinds of strength that make up the whole.</p>
<p>In this <a href="http://www.littlefloweryoga.com/">Little Flower Yoga</a> version of a pebble meditation practice, we incorporate movement, drawing and <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2009/12/09/yoga-journal-writing-a-window-to-the-soul/">journaling</a>, along with the a mindfulness practice, to create a complete experience for our students. You can do this activity all at once, or you can break it up into smaller parts and practice it with your children over several sessions. Using small stones to represent each of element is something that supports the students and provides a grounding energy to the activity. Four different colored stones will represent the following: mountain, tree, flower, still water.</p>
<p>To introduce this activity you want to give the students a chance to explore the feeling of each element. A wonderful way to do this is to allow the students time to draw each element as part of their practice.</p>
<p>1. Give each child 4 stones (one of each color &#8211; and tell them that these stones represent a mountain, a tree, a flower and still water) and 4 index cards, and ask them to put them on their mat in front of them.</p>
<p>On the first card, ask the students to draw a picture of a mountain. Now pick up your first pebble, which will represent a mountain (you can let the students choose which color best represents a mountain to them). Tell the students that a mountain represents strength and stability, and that inside each one of them is a mountain that is strong and steady, no matter what is happening around them. Have them hold the stone they have chosen, come into <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2009/07/20/mountain-pose/">mountain pose</a>, and then practice saying the following together: &#8220;Breathing in I see myself as a mountain, Breathing out I feel strong.&#8221; Repeat this 3 or 4 times, and then take one or two breaths silently together. Have them write along the bottom of their drawing Breathing in I see myself as a mountain, Breathing out I feel strong. Optionally, on the other side of the card, they can draw a picture of themselves in mountain pose.</p>
<p>2. The next element to explore is a tree. Invite the students to draw a tree on the next index card. Then pick up the pebble that represents a tree, and come to stand in <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2010/01/27/kids-yoga-poses-tree-pose-vrksasana/">tree pose</a>. Tell the students that a tree represents balance as it reaches its roots down into the earth, and it’s branches up to the sky. Let them know that they have the balance of a tree inside each of them, and that this balance will help them live a healthy life. Practice saying together: &#8220;Breathing in I see myself as a tree, Breathing out I feel balanced.&#8221; Repeat 3 or 4 times, and then take one or two breaths silently together. Have them write along the bottom of their drawing Breathing in I see myself as a tree, Breathing out I feel balance. Optionally, on the other side of the card, they can draw a picture of themselves in <a href="http://www.littlefloweryoga.com/little-flower-yoga-blog/movement-activity-seed-to-forest-of-trees">tree pose</a>.</p>
<p>3. The next element is a flower. Have the students draw a flower on their third index card, and have them choose a stone to represent flowers. Then come into <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2011/04/04/kids-yoga-poses-flower-pose/">flower pose</a>. Tell them that a flower represents joy and beauty. Inside each of us is a flower that is always growing, keeping us joyful even during hard times. Practice saying together: &#8220;Breathing in I see myself as a flower, Breathing out I feel joyful.&#8221; Repeat 3 or 4 times, and then take one or two breaths silently together. Have them write along the bottom of their drawing Breathing in I see myself as a flower, Breathing out I feel joyful. Optionally, on the other side of the card, they can draw a picture of themselves in flower pose.</p>
<p>4. The final element that we will explore is still water. Have the students draw still water on their fourth index card. They might need more support with this drawing, and you can discuss still water being a lake or pond. Tell the students that still water represents calm and peacefulness. Inside all of us is a vast lake of calm still water that helps us keep our life peaceful. Have them hold their last stone, and come into <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2009/07/26/corspe-pose/">savasana</a>. Practice saying together: &#8220;Breathing in I see myself as still water, Breathing out I feel peaceful.&#8221; Repeat 3 or 4 times, and then take one or two breaths silently together. You can extend this element by allowing the children to rest in savasana either in silence or with some gentle music playing. Once they have come out of savasana, have them write along the bottom of their drawing Breathing in I see myself as still water, Breathing out I feel peaceful. Optionally, on the other side of the card, they can draw a picture of themselves in savasana.</p>
<p>5. After children have explored the feeling of these elements through postures and visualization, a <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2009/12/09/yoga-journal-writing-a-window-to-the-soul/">journaling </a>activity helps make the experience even more concrete and meaningful, and gives them time to reflect. You can use pages that you have created and photocopied for the students, or you can just have them write and complete the following thoughts in a journal:</p>
<p>Mountain: I feel strong when_________________________________</p>
<p>Tree: I feel balanced when___________________________________</p>
<p>Flower: I feel joyful when____________________________________</p>
<p>Still Water: I feel peaceful when________________________________</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>San Quentin Prison is not the typical locale for a yoga class. James Fox, founder of the<a href="http://prisonyoga.com/" rel="nofollow"> Prison Yoga Project</a>,  however teaches three classes a week here in an effort to bring the rehabilitative benefits of yoga to inmates. For the past decade James has dedicated himself to at-risk populations in detention centers, residential treatment facilities and prisons. He is a firm believer in the power of yoga and mindfulness to assist in working with emotional and psychological issues. Incarceration leads to severe mental, emotional and physical distress with many suffering from PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). Helping prisoners learn non-reactivity, self-control and self acceptance is key. Join James as he shares his extraordinary experiences and compassionate insights. Your yoga practice may never be the same. <em></em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em> Enter to win a fabulous Happy Baby Kit from Lilyfern Botanicals with a comment below. Draw date Oct 28th, 2011.</em></p>
<p>Years ago when expecting my oldest I learned about the benefits and healing properties of essential oils. Quickly adopted into our household were lavender, eucalyptus, and chamomile. Then, this summer I discovered a fab company that uses these same oils and others in a variety of products to sooth and nourish the skin. <a href="http://www.lilyfern.ca/index.html">Lilyfern Botanicals</a> produces fabulous hand-crafted, natural skin care products that promote health and balance.</p>
<div id="attachment_7176" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 235px"><a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/lilyfern_happybaby.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-7176 " title="lilyfern_happybaby" src="http://yogainmyschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/lilyfern_happybaby-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Happy Baby Kit</p></div>
<p>I was thrilled when given the <strong>Heal Baby Balm</strong> and <strong>Calm Baby Massage Oil </strong>for a review. Now, I no longer have an infant at home, but that didn&#8217;t stop the entire family from enjoying these beautifully blended products. Throughout the summer my kids loved using the balm on their mosquito bites: no sting and the itch was immediately gone. We also used the balm on scraped knees, sunburn, dry heals, cuticles and every other skin irritation imaginable. I was continually amazed at how versatile and effective it was and loved the fact that there were no chemicals or other nasty add-ins to harm my family.</p>
<p>The Calm Baby Massage Oil was equally as impressive. It has a lovely light scent and a little goes a long way. When they were little I used to give my babies a massage after every bath to calm and soothe them and really wish I had this handy pump dispenser filled with a mix of nourishing apricot kernel and sesame oil then. For this review I used it on all members  of my family and was impressed with its feel and texture during massage and will definitely be stocking up on more.</p>
<p>Lilyfern Botanicals has generously donated one <strong>Happy Baby Kit</strong> as a giveaway. The kit includes Heal Baby Balm (25ml), Calm Baby Massage Oil (30 ml), and Clean Baby Body Wash (250 ml).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Comment below to enter this giveaway. Contest ends Friday, October 14th at 9:00 pm MDT. </em></p>
<p>The good folks over at <a href="http://addriya.com/">Addriya </a>have done it again. Created<a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2011/01/26/abc-yoga-cards-for-kids-a-must-have-resource/"> another fab yoga card deck</a>, this time with a focus on small spaces.</p>
<p><a href="http://addriya.com/shop/yss-office-school-chair-yoga/">Yoga for Small Spaces</a> includes 52 large sized (5&#8243;x7&#8243;), heavy duty cards that can withstand lots of use. Each card features a yoga activity which can be done in a small space such as an office, classroom or airplane. The front of each card has a fun graphic which shows the pose and an object the pose is inspired by. The back is packed with information including step-by-step instructions, benefits, modifications and a positive affirmation.</p>
<p><a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/yoga-for-small-spaces-yss-001-smallspaces.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-7101" title="yoga-for-small-spaces-yss-001-smallspaces" src="http://yogainmyschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/yoga-for-small-spaces-yss-001-smallspaces-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a>One of the things I like best about the cards is the color coding system. Each card has a border which defines the health and behavior benefits such as <span style="color: #ff0000;">Red</span>: to help ground and support especially good for people that are nervous, anxious or fearful or <span style="color: #ff9900;">Yellow</span> to help foster self-esteem, risk-taking and leadership. I find this super helpful as a reference tool when preparing classes.</p>
<p>For years I have taught a popular <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/servicescontact/inservice/">Yoga with a Chair</a> class in schools and for professional development workshops. Everyone is always amazed at the thorough and fun workout you can get by sitting in a chair. This yoga deck added to my repertoire of poses and is handy for a quick yoga game.</p>
<p>So if you think you can&#8217;t do yoga unless you move the furniture or have a yoga mat, block, strap and other props, think again. With<strong> Yoga for Small Spaces</strong> yoga can be done anywhere and the poses are ideal for all ages and abilities.</p>
<p><em></em>You can purchase your own deck for $19.99 from the <a href="http://addriya.com/shop/yss-office-school-chair-yoga/">Addriya on-line store</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4>Guest post by Jillian McKee</h4>
<p>It is heartbreaking when children are diagnosed with cancer. The treatment affects not only them, but their families, doctors and communities as well. The treatments for cancer exhaust the body and it is difficult to watch as children become ill and bed-ridden from cancer treatment, when they would normally be out growing, playing baseball, having sleepovers and painting nails. During this treatment, both the minds and the bodies of children take a toll. They become exhausted, lose muscle, have stunted growth and  high levels of stress. For these reasons, many doctors have started recommending<a href="http://www.yogajournal.com/health/126/"> yoga as a therapy</a> along with the normal cancer treatment regimen.</p>
<p>The breathing and meditative practices utilized in yoga are especially helpful to children, both physically and spiritually. On a spiritual level, it reduces the amount of stress and anxiety for both the children and their families. When we breathe, we breathe in prana, or life energy. By breathing slowly and deeply, children can learn to rid themselves of excess anxiety and emotions. It is also a way for parents to learn to remain calm and stress-free. When the parents are calm and reassuring, it allows for a better experience for the children.</p>
<p>Using <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/yoga-101/breathing/breathing-exercises/">breathing techniques</a> also helps on a physical level. The body is able to eliminate more toxins and work more efficiently as more oxygen enters into it. The treatments for cancer are extremely toxic, which makes this technique beneficial. A breathing practice is also very helpful to children suffering from cancers that can inhibit their breathing, such as rare aggressive disease <a href="http://www.mesothelioma.com/">mesothelioma </a>that is triggered from <a href="http://www.mesothelioma.com/asbestos-exposure/">asbestos exposure</a>. Mesothelioma can cause shortness of breath, fatigue, and wheezing. When breathing deeply using techniques taught through yoga, these symptoms can lessen.</p>
<p>During cancer treatment, children are often bed-ridden and hospital-bound. Their muscles deplete, and they are not engaging in the normal play that enables them to gain muscle and flexibility. Practicing <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/yoga-101/poses/alphabetical-list-of-poses/">asanas </a>can help children gain back muscle strength, balance and flexibility. Asanas can also help children to gain more energy, which is something that many families say is an incredible benefit of yoga during cancer treatment.</p>
<p>A<a href="http://jpo.sagepub.com/content/27/5/276.abstract"> recent study </a>completed by the Children&#8217;s Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota has shown that yoga is a positive experience for both children and their families, and it can reduce anxiety in adolescents and adults. Yoga has proven to be an enjoyable practice for both children undergoing cancer treatment and their families. It can help to improve their physical health, energy levels and stress levels. Doctors, families and children have reported immense benefits from this treatment. After cancer, yoga gives children the techniques to live a more fulfilling and aware life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h5>Guest post by <a href="http://www.childrensyogabooks.com/about.html">Janet Williams</a></h5>
<p>I teach yoga to children ages 4-8, on a weekly basis, at a local yoga studio and I have used many of the activities from Donna Freeman’s fabulous book “<strong><em><a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/store/book/">Once Upon a Pose</a></em></strong>”.  I also teach parents and teachers how to do yoga with children and I wanted to share how effective and fun the game “Sea Shells” has been with my students.</p>
<p>One of the children’s favourite activities is the “<a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2009/09/28/useful-and-fun-yoga-games-sea-shells/">Sea Shells</a>” game, which my students request on a weekly basis.  I always encourage creativity in my yoga classes and I enjoy empowering children and fostering self-confidence within them by letting them ‘direct’, ‘lead’ and ‘teach’ the class through a yoga pose or share an idea that we all can try.</p>
<p>I have also been blessed to teach highly intelligent, fun and inventive children, so when we started playing “Sea Shells”, I started with having them run to the Sea and to the Shore and then calling out “Sea Shells” and having them do a<a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/yoga-101/poses/alphabetical-list-of-poses/"> Yoga Pose</a>.  They loved it and we played it so often that I started adding distinctions like Deep Sea vs Shallow Water, and Shoreline vs Shore.  This all happened gradually and each week, the children and I would add something new until a story started to emerge.</p>
<p>Each part of the story has a different area of the room that the movement or activity has to be performed in.  We ended up with so many movements and activities, that I created a map.  We also used some of the poses that are from my book “<strong><em><a href="http://www.childrensyogabooks.com/">What I See, I Can Be:  A Guided Yoga Flow for Children</a></em></strong>”.  This is a wonderful activity because children like to run, which gets their heart rate up, they find it fun wondering what will come next that they will have to dash off to, and they get to incorporate yoga poses into a story.</p>
<p>When I call out “Sea Shells” they choose which yoga pose they are going to do.  I encourage them to choose a different yoga pose every time that I call out “Sea Shells”.  I also leave the “<strong><em>What I See, I Can Be</em></strong>” Full Size Poster in a place that they can easily reference, in case they need an idea for a yoga pose.  This helps alleviate any potential stress for young children who may not be able to remember all of the poses or think of a new yoga pose to do in the excitement of running from place to place, and allows them to focus on the fun aspect of the game.  This is also an excellent activity because other than the poster, no equipment is required and every one is a winner.</p>
<h3>The story goes like this:</h3>
<p>“<strong><em>All the children get into the car &#8211; mom and dad are taking us to the beach</em></strong>”. – The children then do an excellent <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2009/07/27/boat-pose/">abdominal yoga pose</a> by sitting on their bottoms, bend their knees, put their feet in the air and press on the imaginary gas pedals, and their hands are on the steering wheel straight out in front of them.  They drive the car to the beach and I call out – “<em>Faster, Slower, Turn to the right, Turn to the left, Stop at the light, Go again, See the Beach Entrance, Find a Parking Spot”</em>.  This encourages them to hold the pose longer, as they pretend to drive their cars.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Everyone we have arrived.  Time to get out of the car</em></strong>”. – The children stand up.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Run to the Shoreline and put your Toes in the water.  Check the temperature of the water</em></strong>”. – They go to the shoreline.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Swim to the Deep Sea</em></strong>” – Using their arms they swim as they run to touch anywhere on the back wall.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>You see Dolphins swimming and playing. Go in and join them</em></strong>” &#8211; They do the<a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2010/07/28/kids-yoga-poses-shark-pose-looks-suspiciously-like-dolphin-pose/"> Dolphin Yoga Pose</a>, by placing their hands and forearms on the ground and with their feet behind them, they push their bums into the air as they would in Dog Pose.  Then they make their heads move in a circle by coming forward with their body as far as they can go (usually just passed the fingers) and then they swoop back as far as they can go (usually around the elbows).</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Sharks are Circling</em></strong>” – They run in a circle.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Children in the playground</em></strong>”. – They go to the back corner and pretend to be in a playground.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>There is a Large Boat in the Deep Sea</em></strong>” – They do the Boat Pose from the book “<strong><em>What I See, I Can Be</em></strong>”.</p>
<p><strong><em>“There are large butterflies on the beach.  Join the Butterflies</em></strong>” – They do the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mUwHJpDvWE">Butterfly Pose</a> from the Yoga Match Game.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>There is a Row Boat in the Shallow Water</em></strong>” – They get up and go to the Shallow Water and they sit on their bottoms, raise their legs in the air and balance in a V pose and move their arms as if rowing the boat.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Time to Fly a Kite</em></strong>” – They do the Triangular Kite Pose from the book “<strong><em>What I See, I Can Be</em></strong>”.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Time for a healthy lunch.  Join Mom and Dad on the Picnic Table and have a Picnic</em></strong>.” – front wall in the middle – sitting down pretending to eat.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Have to wait after eating before going swimming – Put on sunscreen and Sun tan on the Beach to catch some sun rays</em></strong>”.  – They do the Meadow Pose from the book “<strong><em>What I See, I Can Be</em></strong>” on the beach.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>I see Oysters on the Beach</em></strong>” – They do the Oyster Pose from “<strong><em>What I See, I Can Be</em></strong>”.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Trees in the Forest</em></strong>” – they do <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2010/01/27/kids-yoga-poses-tree-pose-vrksasana/">Tree Pose</a> along the front wall.  (Chairs in a Circle in the Forest &#8211; If there are enough children, they make a tight circle with their left shoulder facing into the middle of the circle and their right shoulder on the outside of the circle, and slowly and carefully, they can squat down, until everyone is sitting on someone else’s knees and then they raise their hands in the air.  This is known as the <a href="http://yogainmyschool.com/2011/01/10/kids-yoga-poses-chair-pose-utkatasana/">Yoga Chair Pose</a>, but in this case, with some support from each other.  Again, everyone is a winner.)</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Making Sand Castles on the Beach</em></strong>” – they use their imaginations and build sand castles.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>You found a 5 pointed Star Fish on the Beach.  Be a Star Fish</em></strong>” – the children lay down and make 5 points with their 2 arms and 2 legs and 1 head.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>It’s finally time to go swimming.  Splash in the shallow water</em></strong>”. – the children pretend to splash around.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Lily Pads in the shallow water</em></strong>” – the children do Full Lotus Pose or Half Lotus Pose, with legs crossed.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Frog squatting on the Lily Pad</em></strong>” – the children do the Yoga Squat Pose, with knees bent, feet apart and pointing at 45 degrees outward, bum close to the ground, back straight and head pointing to the ceiling.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Frog jumping off the Lily Pad and eating flies</em></strong>” – the children jump up out of the squat pose and stick their tongue out to catch flies.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>It was a great day and it is time for a photo.  Take a picture</em></strong>” – Children pretend to take a picture.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Smile and Do Your Favourite Yoga Pose for a Group photo</em></strong>” – children smile and freeze in a Yoga Pose as I pretend to take a group photo.</p>
<p>“<strong><em>Catch the last rays of the sun before leaving</em></strong>” – children do the Meadow Pose from “<strong><em>What I See, I Can Be</em></strong>”.</p>
<p>During these 24 steps, I will call out Sea Shells randomly 6-7 times as we are going through the story and the children then choose a yoga pose to do.  We hope you have as much fun playing “<strong><em>Going to the Beach</em></strong>” as we have!</p>
