Yoga, Meditation, Mantras, Knowledge Filled mornings with Children

What's the morning like of your child? Here is the first 1.5 hrs morning of my children.

Dear Friends,

As you know, it’s been around 12 years that my revolves around children. I have tried different ways to be around children for their wellbeing, inspiration, and knowledge. Children start their day by drinking lukewarm water and some freshly germinated sprouts.

We slowly gather in the school field and begin walking around in some order. This is a quiet time, we chant some mantras, chant the sound of ‘OM’ or the seven pure notes of the music.

Now, everybody is fully awake. We start running. A few rounds around the ground, and around the school campus, through the garden, around the temple and then back to the ground.

With a few active warm up and stretching exercises, it’s time to do some monkey walk, frog jump, and 25 times sit-ups. Then we do a few asanas and end with Surya Namaskar.

Before we begin studying and chanting Bhagavad-Gita, the students do tap massage followed by breath work. Then we do Kapalbhati, Bhastrika, Nadisodhan, and end with Bhramari Pranayama.

This is followed by chanting mantras and reading Bhagavad Gita.

To end the morning practice, we sit and meditate for a few minutes, and end it by expressing gratitude to the Mother Earth and everybody around us through pranam.

With Love,

Veda
