Relax, and enjoy the calming effects of Easy Pose. Children can do this pose in their classroom chairs, car seats, or circle time!

Some of our favorite relaxing activities that incorporate Easy Pose are Focus Your Energy and In November. Both are fun and easy ways to bring yoga into elementary schools, preschool, or yoga class.
