Anything that can help children to relax is positive! Yoga and mindfulness are proven ways to help children to connect to their bodies, reduce anxiety, become more present and peaceful in the moment, and increase focus and attention span. In this class, we will begin by connecting with one animal such as bear, whale, cat, bird, dolphin, or rabbit. We will look at some books with beautiful images of the animal and learn some interesting things about the animal to keep in mind during our movement practice (example: whales like to sing!) in the beginning of each class. We will then practice yoga or movement to gently bring us to a calm and peaceful space and connection. We may move like an animal would move and then during a relaxation time we will repeat affirmations or focus on our breathing. We reflect on the animal in this time to allow the learner to easily bring up their affirmation and feeling of calm throughout the day. We will also spend some time drawing to process artistically the animal we are connecting to. Students can join this class at any point in time as our work will not build on previous weeks.

I worked as a librarian at a Waldorf school for six years working closely with grades 1-12 before transitioning to my teaching on Outschool. I also taught nature study and spent many hours in forest classes as part of my teaching at the Waldorf school. I have also taught nature Archetype studies here on Outschool. I teach Waldorf students and other students (including ESL) around the world now as a private reading and writing teacher. I have also taken private courses in archetypes and studied the work of Carl Jung as a B.S. Psychology student. I am also a published writer. I lived on a Navajo reservation for several summers. I also have Masters classes in Library Science, Human Services, as well as diversity training. I ran a middle and high school library at the Waldorf school where I taught creative writing, library, and research classes for six years. I also worked in the Waldorf kindergarten as an aftercare teacher and have authored my own preschool and kindergarten nature based curriculums for homeschool families after homeschooling my own two children. I have taught yoga/meditation to both students and faculty. I am a certified Rapid Transformational Therapist and certified hypnotherapist.
