Yoga in children can enhance immunity
In fact, many kindergartens and schools in India have yoga courses and special yoga classrooms. Children's yoga is as indispensable as our physical education classes. Carry out corresponding yoga practices according to the different ages of the students. Nowadays, not only in India, but also in some European and American primary and secondary schools have begun to promote yoga to exercise students 'bodies. However, children need to choose yoga postures in a targeted manner to practice yoga, and many yoga movements performed by adults may not be suitable for children. It is best for children's yoga activities to be specially designed to meet their physical development needs.
Correct bad posture and cultivate attention
"Yoga itself is very personal. We don't force children to set any special standards in their movements. For children of a few years old, it is enough to master a direction and achieve their own maximum," Chen Qi explained. Nowadays, children are under great pressure to study, and they tend to be hunchbacked and stiff at a young age. A major advantage of practicing children's yoga is that children have strong curiosity and imitation. Some imitation of various postures in nature can increase children's interest in training. Some spinal stretching movements can correct children's poor posture and promote bone growth. At the same time, it can alleviate cervical spine and back fatigue caused by long-term study at the desk. It's a healthy activity for children, she said. Yoga emphasizes deep breathing, which can help improve problems such as asthma and airway sensitivity. It can also strengthen the personal immune system and relieve mental tension. The benefits are numerous. Practicing yoga since childhood can keep the body in a state of good elasticity earlier, which is more effective than practicing as an adult.
On the other hand, it can improve children's attention. Being lively and active is the nature of children, but being too lively and active, coupled with many temptations from the outside world, will directly draw children's attention, which will affect children's concentration and thus affect the quality of learning. The purpose of children's yoga is to allow children to play happily and learn carefully, rather than deprive children of their nature. Through targeted concentration training, children can actively resist external interference, gradually master rapid concentration methods, and have the ability to control their own thoughts and behaviors.
