Yoga in Schools

The scientific rationale and research evidence

Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times

Yoga is an ancient behavioral practice that allows for the development of the skills of mind-body awareness or mindfulness, self-regulation of internal physiological and psychological state, and physical fitness. Yoga is becoming increasingly popular as a behavioral strategy for the promotion and maintenance of health and wellness, and as preventive medicine.

In this online program, you will learn the important need for such skills in our education system and public schools, discover the scientific evidence on the underlying mechanisms of yoga practice supporting the rationale for yoga in schools, and review the existing research evidence for its efficacy in school settings. Please join us for this heart-centered offering.
