Hero at Home: Create an OHMazing™ Day

by Beth Reese

In Yogiños: Yoga for Youth® we spend a lot of doing yoga off the mat. In fact, I was happily surprised when I learned that yoga is a way of life not "just" poses or asanas. Asanas are 1 branch of the yoga tree. The overarching philosophies pf yoga are known as the 8 Limbs:

Meredith encourages yogiños to cultivate pratyahara
by carefully looking at this sculpture of Vishnu as Varaha
in the Crow Collection of Asian Art.

Yama :  Making good choices for others

Niyama :  Making good choices for yourself

Asanas :  Body postures or poses

Pranayama :  Breathing exercises

Pratyahara :  Cultivation and control of the senses

Dharana :  Concentration, focus, inner awareness

Dhyana :  Meditation

Samadhi :  Union with the Divine within yourself

Sometimes at first it may be hard to imagine practicing yoga off the mat. In this week's Yogiños in Your Home we offer a short film showing Remy and one of her OHMazing™ Days.

Be a hero at home and share yoga on and off the mat!

Beth is the mother of three OHMazing yogis under the age of 12. Her oldest daughter, Jordan, is the inspiration for  Yogiños: Yoga for Youth® as she learned to navigate challenges associated with Sensory-Integration "Disorder" through practicing all 8 Limbs of yoga.
