Kids’ Meditation and Yoga Camp
Growing up as a high-tech generation, our children experience stress and emotional challenges every day in school and in their social lives, just as adult do. Meditation is a set of relaxation techniques that can help kids learn how to calm their minds and deal with their emotions better. By calming the mind through meditation practice and the simple moves of yoga, anyone of any generation can bring harmony to body, mind and spirit. These quiet activities help promote health, better concentration, progress in studies and success in other activities. Children are encouraged to bring adults with them – moms, dads, grandparents, aunts, uncles – everyone is welcome to learn together. This unique camp is an enjoyable day that creates opportunities for further interaction later as you practice the new techniques that you learned together.
