Mistry Yoga Sessions aren’t just about the yoga poses, we make sure to include a moment for mindful arts and crafts.

“Research has shown that child creativity and imagination have decreased significantly over time when compared to previous generations.” Dr Nicole Beurkens - Child Psychologist March 19th 2024

Including arts and crafts in our yoga sessions allows children to use their imagination, express themselves and develop cognitive, social -emotional and multi sensory skills.

🌙 Yoga Poses for Better Sleep in Children 🌙

Ensuring a good night's sleep for your little ones is essential for their growth and development. Incorporating yoga into their bedtime routine can be a wonderful way to calm their minds and prepare them for a peaceful slumber. Here are three soothing yoga poses that can help children sleep better:

1️⃣ Balasana (Child's Pose)

Benefits:
Relieves stress and anxiety.
Stretches the spine and shoulders.
Encourages deep, calming breaths.
How to Do It:
Kneel on the floor, big toes touching.
Sit back on your heels and extend your arms forward, forehead resting on the floor.
Breathe deeply, feeling a gentle stretch in your back.

2️⃣ Viparita Karani (Legs Up the Wall Pose)

Benefits:
Calms the nervous system.
Reduces anxiety and stress.
Improves circulation and relieves tired legs.
How to Do It:
Sit close to a wall with your side against it.
Swing your legs up the wall as you lie down on your back.
Relax your arms by your sides or place your hands on your belly.
Close your eyes and focus on your breath.

3️⃣ Supta Baddha Konasana (Reclining Bound Angle Pose)

Benefits:
Opens the chest and hip area.
Relieves tension in the lower back.
Promotes relaxation and a sense of security.
How to Do It:
Lie on your back and bring the soles of your feet together, allowing your knees to drop to the sides.
Place your hands on your belly or by your sides.
Breathe deeply, feeling your chest rise and fall.

Remember, these poses should be done gently and without force. Encourage your child to breathe deeply and relax while holding each pose for a few breaths. Incorporating these yoga poses into their bedtime routine can help create a peaceful and restful atmosphere, making it easier for them to drift into a deep, rejuvenating sleep. Sweet dreams!

🍂🌕 Hey there, autumn lovers and moonbeam chasers! 🌕🍂

Guess what? It's officially autumn and the full moon is shining bright tonight. 🍁🌝 But hold up, before you get lost in all the pumpkin spice madness, we've got a cool idea for you: Family Yoga under the moon's enchanting gaze. 🧘‍♀️👨‍👩‍👦‍👦

🍂 Nature Vibes: Go outside, look for the moon. Take a deep breath of that crisp, autumn air. Feel the ground beneath you – it's like Mother Earth's yoga mat! 🌍

🌕 Moon Salutations: We're not talking about waving at the moon (although that's cool too). Try Moon Salutations, a groovy yoga flow inspired by lunar energy. Reflect on your wild September ride and set some intentions for the month ahead.

👪 Family Huddle: Family Yoga isn't about being all serious with your poses. Nope, it's about bonding. Share laughs, cheer each other on, and create a circle of awesomeness under the moonlight.

🌌 Chillax Mode: If September has been a rollercoaster, time to hop off. Yoga helps you chill, find your chill, and say "adios" to stress.

🍂 Gratitude Party: End your yoga session with gratitude. Everyone takes a turn sharing something they're thankful for – big or small. It's like a gratitude buffet!

Ready to try Moon Salutations and make the moon your BFF? 🌙✨ We've got a FREE Moon Salutation guide just waiting for you. Head over to https://www.mistryyoga.com/category/all-products to download your FREEBIE and let's get bendy under the moon! 📥🧘‍♂️

🌟 Hey there, lovely people! 🌟

I'd like to introduce myself to you all! 🙋‍♀️

I'm Mandy Mistry, and I've always had a passion for creativity and working with children. For 15 incredible years, I had the privilege of being a primary school teacher, molding young minds and watching them bloom. 🍎📚

But like many of us, when COVID struck, it brought along a wave of anxiety, self-doubt, and a confidence crisis. I found myself dipping in and out of yoga for years until it suddenly clicked. 🧘‍♀️✨

Meditation became my sanctuary, my lifeline. It helped me navigate through those dark times when I genuinely thought there was no way out. Even as a kid, I was the "quiet one" in my loud and lively family, letting that label define me, especially in social situations.

Yoga, my friends, is SO much more than just striking poses. It's a lifeline. It's a journey of self discover, a path to self-belief, and an arsenal of coping strategies for when anxiety feels overwhelming. 💪

And here's the best part: as an adult, discovering yoga has inspired me to share this beautiful practice with children and families, creating a confident, happy, and united community. 🌈👨‍👩‍👦‍👦

So, let's embark on this adventure together! 🚀 Stay tuned for exciting yoga sessions, mindfulness tips, and lots of positive vibes coming your way! 🧘‍♂️🧘‍♀️
