Parent-child yoga integrates family love for health
Parent-child yoga includes three categories: infant yoga and yoga for children aged 2 and 3 to 5 years old. It can help children stretch the muscles and bones of the whole body and correct scoliosis, hunchback caused by wrong sitting, sleeping, and walking postures. Problems such as high and low shoulders, and leg deformation can enable the skeleton of developing children to grow healthily. During yoga practice, children's ligaments will not stretch too strongly to prevent children from feeling tired and bored. It can also massage internal organs, strengthen digestive system functions, and prevent constipation, gastrointestinal discomfort and other symptoms. More importantly, children can also learn to deal with negative emotions such as tension, irritability, and depression during yoga practice and create a good character.
Among all fitness events, yoga is the exercise that requires the most artistic conception. Unlike adult body yoga, which imagines being in nature, parent-child yoga relies on multiple short stories to develop children's imagination. The following is a set of artistic conception of "Journey to the West" created based on the psychological characteristics of children.
The parents and children sat on the floor, breathed a long sigh of relief, and entered the role with a raise of their hands. At this time, the music played. (Parents: Look up, the mountain has cracked open. Did Sun Wukong jump out of it?) Set up the lotus seat, sit down cross-legged and straighten your waist, slowly open your hands, look up at the sky, and listen to the gentle whisper of your parents, let your thoughts begin to enter the mythical dream of Journey to the West.
(Parents: Sun Wukong jumped out of the Five Finger Mountains and blew mischievously, blowing left and right, and the lotus flower started to move.) The body begins to tilt to the left according to the voice, with your head pressed tightly to your left leg, slowly pressing down your right hand and stroking your left toe. After 3 seconds, get up, then slowly right, press your legs into the more difficult side pull. Pause for a moment to complete the lateral pulling and twisting of the waist and abdomen.
Parents began to take their children into the second artistic conception.(Parents: Sun Wukong picked up the golden hoop stick and slowly stretched out his waist. He was checking if Pig Bajie was here.) Slowly raise your head, touch your hands vertically, tilt your hips, and touch your toes on the ground-this is a relatively easy backward camel pose. Immediately afterwards, in different artistic scenes, the parent and child can cooperate to complete the snake pose, dog pose, cat pose, lifting leg pose, rabbit pose, stomach pose, car pose and boat pose in yoga.
It is difficult to maintain a child's interest in things for a long time and needs new things to stimulate it at any time. Therefore, when designing the artistic conception of yoga practice, it is best to ask the child to pay attention to only one thing in each story and let him imagine a certain part of his body during practice. Parents can create various styles of artistic conception according to their children's characteristics, but no matter what artistic conception, they should arrange more training for their children's breathing and motor system movements to improve their children's diet and sleep and enhance their physical fitness.
After practicing yoga, the child's physical fitness and concentration can be significantly improved. Moreover, parent-child yoga is not just a simple exercise, but also a way to educate children and enjoy family happiness. Because of the whole process, mother or father to the artistic conception of the vigorous construction and devoted participation, enough to allow two generations to exchange love, feel kinship, parent-child relationship can also be more harmonious in practice. Children accept their abilities quickly before the age of 7. If parents can personally guide their children into the wonderful world of yoga, teach them simple yoga postures, and cultivate their interests, then children will surely become confident, cheerful, healthy and progressive babies.
