☀️ Yoga at the Farm ☀️

Come dip your toe into how horses help you be “feely”: let’s do some yoga and meditation! We are going to spend 30 minutes stretching out, getting in tune with our bodies, breathing and being mindful - and then we are going to follow it up by standing next to a horse and listening to a guided meditation. Our equine pals are going to help us stay grounded and regulate our nervous system as we take a walk in our minds eye. What a fun way to bring yourself back to center and be present in your body. Refreshments are to be served and peppermints to be distributed to the goodest horses!

Sue Durand will be leading us through a 30 min yoga session followed by a 30 min of meditation with Lindsey alongside our equine friends. We are so honored to have Sue lead us through this session. Sue has over 300 hours in yoga certifications, she is a trauma certified yoga instructor with 120 hours of training and has 18 years of experience.

Is it time ⏰for your school to have a better understanding of the past 45 years of knowledge related to executive function skills ?

Does your school have a culture of teaching executive function skills built into the school day ?
