NOTES
The incidence of childhood health problems is rising: from ADD and ADHD to obesity, it’s glaringly evident that we need to bring our children back to healthier habits. Introducing the practice of yoga is a holistic way of doing so, where the coordination of the body and breath, and stilling a busy mind or upset emotions, is at the core. In the hands of these talented Brazilian writers and illustrators, kids learn yoga through play—the game of “playing statue,” i.e. holding a posture—the natural world and animals, and creative characters that simply this ancient philosophy. That’s not to say that yogic principles are overly simplified: in fact, the authors break down sophisticated back bends and forward folds, balancing postures, and breathing and meditation techniques—making the book as instructive to adults as it is to children. A book for the whole family to enjoy with a promised sense of strength, focus, and calm at its core
