On this #wellnesswednesday, we want to share some Garden Yoga with you! Garden Yoga (or any yoga,) is great for helping children to learn to listen to their minds/bodies, self-regulate, and practice calming strategies.
Here are a few yoga poses to try out outside soon!
- Pretend to be a tree: stand on one leg, bend the other knee and place the sole of your foot on your inner thigh. Sway like a tree in the breeze.
- Pretend to be a frog: come down to a squat with knees a part and arms resting between your knees. Touch hands to the ground. Jump like a frog.
- Pretend to be a seed: sit back on your heels and bring your forehead down to rest on the floor. Pretend to be a seed in the garden.
Try these out with your child! Yoga can be great for getting re-centered!

On this #wellnesswednesday, we want to stress how important it is to help your child have a positive body-image. Body image is a part of self esteem - it is how you feel about how you look - it also includes how you think others see you.
Having a positive body image means that:
-you feel comfortable in your body and the way you look
-you feel good about the things your body can do
-you feel empowered to take good care of your physical health
Struggling with body image is a common thing - even in elementary students. Here are some ways we can help:
-Ask your child to list three things they like about themselves and three things they are good at. Talk about how everyone is different and has different strengths and weaknesses.
- Talk with your child about the things they can do to have a positive body image like: spend time with people who make you feel good about yourself, use positive self talk and affirmations, remind yourself that you are unique and special, eat foods that make you feel great, and talk with someone you trust any time you are feeling low.
