Publisher's Synopsis
This Yoga book for Children and Adults invites you into mindful movement for body, mind and soul. The children from Arken Kindergarden in Norway brings you into a colorful story of movement, playfulness and breath. At the end of the book each yoga pose is illustrated with detailed instructions, giving adults practical and mindful lessons of the "how-to". Breathing life into stories helps children's playfulness to come alive, as playfulness invites children to be present in their own life. Playfulness also stimulates childrens´ capacity to learn and to be engaged in their own learning process. The book you are now holding in your hands was birthed when my youngest son Benjamin attended Arken Kindergarden and I was teaching kids´yoga classes here. So, this book is not merely a constructed of my mind, but a living story that the Children of Arken Kindergarden in Norway have moved, played and breathed through for more than two years. It has given them and me many joys and challenges, but most of all, it has taught us all the importance of being present and playful in our own lives.
