Mindfulness, Meditation, and Yoga
I am a huge fan of connecting the Body and the Mind. The world we live in is filled with text messages, constant noise, and can be overwhelmingly fast-paced. Sometimes slowing things down, creating a calm environment, and actually feeling alive is all you need towards improving your quality of life. Mindfulness, Yoga and Meditation should be part of every Health and Physical Education curriculum and school because of the overwhelming research that has shown how amazing it is on your body and mind, especially when you connect it to student learning and success. They are phenomenal ways to also introduce fitness components such as cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength/endurance, and flexibility at the same time. So, stop what you are doing, take a deep breath, and just feel yourself alive!
