Students Complete 6-Week Yoga Programme for Wellbeing

Over 6-weeks in Term 3, 15 students participated in an introduction to personal home yoga practice. Each week the group went through a different aspect of practice. And everybody learnt how to use their breath as a means to calm the mind, ground, and feel their connection to the natural world. It was awesome!

Here are some words from students who took part:
“I feel better after the course. Everything just feels a bit more colorful and brighter and I get the feeling that no matter what would happen for the rest of that day, it would not make me anxious or angry. I get this deep feeling of relaxation and inner calmness.”

“I felt like I was ready to sleep for an eternity after because I was so calm and connected to the earth.”

“I feel more lightweight, less thoughts of overthinking, and finding myself thoroughly enjoying the rest of the day.”

“I also like knowing I can bring the new skills home with me for the holidays and before exams.”

“Knowing how to do the breath and the yoga movements makes me feel like I can do it anytime, anywhere when I need to.”
