No one knows how to share yoga with kids better then Jennifer Cohen Harper. In their new card deck, Jennifer and Mayuri took yoga off the mat and put it in the chair. With fun activities suitable for sitting at the dinner table or at your deck in school. Mindful Chair Yoga is an important addition to every parent’s and educator’s bookshelf.

I love how accessible and practical this workbook is, even for people who don’t know much about yoga. The clean layout and valuable content make it a great resource for clinicians, educators, and parents. There is a great deal of science suggesting that the way we move our bodies impacts our emotions. This workbook will help kids move their bodies to build emotional regulation.

Stress is an epidemic in our society. Kids not only carry the stress of their own lives, but also absorb the anxiety that comes from the adults closest to them. This book is a wonderful resource for parents and teachers to teach our kids the essential life skills they need to thrive in a world that grows more complicated by the day. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to teach their child how to be happy, healthy and well balanced.
