Meditation and the Kid!

X

Hi! Hola! Previt! Bon Jour! Ciao! Guten Tag! Sign up Now! for fun info on traveling to Latin America!

My seven year old boy is what you can categorize as a hyper active, extremely energetic kid who can barely sit still for 1 minute. I have no complaints about this (most of the time). However, I was truly intrigued when I found out that Prana Holistic center offers meditation class for children class.

What a great idea! I was truly curious what this would entail. We arrived and were greeted by Fressy, the lovely teacher who knew her stuff and best of all knew how to be with kids. That in itself is an art form!

Parents weren’t allowed to enter, but the room that they were in was wall to wall glass so I was able to observe from the sidelines.

Like most kids, my son rarely tells me the story as it happens, he either moves on to the next thoughts or forgets instantly since he’s already on to a new game. But watching the class unfold, I will say he managed to sit still and follow closely along to what the teacher was doing for the full hour.

And even after the class him and his little buddy were continuing with the mantra.

Did he seem more relaxed after the class? Not sure, but he did leave in a good spirit and I’m sure if I continue the habit of it, it can still his mind even for a second.

Thanks so much Isabelle Legris for introducing me to kid mediation and quality time with my son at your holistic center.
