Yoga Kids Pose of The Week is Bold Warrior

Part of a healthful lifestyle is being active.  Kids need to see us as a good example and working to keep ourselves fit.  It also helps when the activity is fun and builds character. 

 

This weeks Yoga Kids pose of the week is Bold Warrior

 

My girls love Yoga.  We have a blast working on the different moves.  I have one that is a gymnastic and really can do some power moves. 

 

One thing I love most about Yoga is the peace and strength it brings to the mind and body.  Positive affirmations are important to use daily and help support mental wellness.  I want to raise strong minded, positive, well rounds kids, and love this weeks affirmation to go along with the pose.
