Much of our mental suffering comes from how tightly we hold our beliefs. In the monastery my teacher Ajahn Chah used to smile and ask, "Is it true?" He wanted us to learn to hold our thoughts lightly. Within the stillness of meditation we learn to observe how words and images arise and then vanish. When we let thoughts come and go without clinging, we can use thought, but we rest in the heart.

This is where we need to be introducing meditation. These kids are open and still connected to that beautiful truth we are all born into. This is one of those places where the impact of meditation shows its power right upfront, close, and personal. I meet so many amazing teachers here in Denver, and all over the world, through my meditation practice. I’m blown away at the number of schools that are allowing meditation to be offered. Some schools are actually replacing detention with meditation, and having huge success. I’m grateful for every opportunity I get to share the power of meditation. #kidsmeditation #childrenmeditating #milehighmysticmeditation #blu #prison #hair #love #connection #mysticmysterblu #mysterblu #beards #beardsofinstagram #beards_model #beardlife #motivation #beautiful #govegan #organic #fitness #compassion #photooftheday #jesus #chef #yoga #meditation #workout #lift #maninblack (at Denver, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/B09pURLnhTo/?igshid=1nnstrgidw5u2

Yourself: Love yourself and focus more on yourself. Accept you for who you are. Accept that there are things that are beyond your control. Accept the things you cannot change. Stop comparing yourself to others all the time. Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is. Yoga gives you that moment to express the smile in you to come out willingly. #slumyoga #communityyoga #villagelife #yogaeverywhere #yogagirl #yogamats #yogaflowwithokurut #yogapracticenotyogaperfect #yogaflow #yogafun #meditation #inspire #motivation #childrenmentalhealth #childrenyoga #childrenmeditation #okurutgeorge (at Kampala, Uganda) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcUjUHpqiLP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The promise of school yoga. Research on school-based mindful yoga is still in its infancy. Several research reviews support implementing these programs, but it’s important to keep in mind that some studies have found limited or no effects from them. And many studies use “self-report” questionnaires where students rate themselves, rather than collecting objective data or reports from parents and teachers. Larger, more rigorous research needs to be done to clarify the benefits of these programs and what causes them, including the optimal amount of practice time and best practices for implementation. In just the past two years, more than 350 new studies have come out exploring the benefits of yoga and mindfulness for youth—a clear sign that interest in this subject is growing rapidly. We’re confident that the evidence for yoga in schools will continue to expand, and that it will help students cultivate social, emotional, and physical health; academic success; and a positive school climate. So here is my first class with St. Janan Luwum Kabalagala branch, students shown up in big number to do yoga even though the challenge was yoga mats but it didn't stop us from doing the session. I did with them some breathing techniques which were so challenging to some of them and then introduction to yoga that's beginner's class. I need to continue with these yoga classes to different schools in Uganda 🇺🇬 but I need people who can support me with connection to schools and also those ones who can fund me to give these classes to children at free cost because they really need them. @yolohayoga @yogawithcrio @barbiekyagulanyi @yogajournal @kathie_yogi @yogainspiration @alo @aloyoga @baronbaptisteyoga @baptisteyoga @stretchylicious @nude_yogagirl @prisonyogaproject @givebackyoga @prisonyogaproject_newhampshire @prisonyogasb #yogainschools #childrenmentalhealth #childrenmeditation #childrenyoga #children #schools #teaching #communityyoga #prisonyoga #schoolyoga #healthylifestyle #healthyfood #meditation #yogaeverywhere #yogagirl #yogalove #yogaboy #yogapose #yogainspiration #yogachallenge #yogajourney #yogapractice #givebackyogafoundation #yogateacher #uganda🇺🇬 #okurutgeo (at St Janan Luwum Ss Kabalagala) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaRzLfJtViA/?utm_medium=tumblr

Think about it. How often would you tell your children not to study or play and just watch TV instead? Probably not too many times, right? Why, because you obviously want the best for them. And who other than you would know the best for your child? You always want to give them the best of everything, be it clothes, education or food. You get them the best gifts on their birthdays and do whatever it takes to keep them happy, healthy and be successful in life. And now it’s time to give them the best gift of their life – something which they will cherish lifelong and be grateful, for it will change their life for the better. A simple yet very effective technique called meditation - one of the most valuable skills we can teach our children. Did you know that regular practice of meditation has several beneficial effects on our children’s emotional, mental and intellectual development? Yes, it helps children tune into themselves, sleep better and develop better social interactions. Now that’s what you as a parent would always dream and wish for your child, right? So this is #Anapana meditation course for children which took place at Banana Village Eco Retreat in Entebbe as I collaborated with Andrew of Buddhism Temple in Uganda 🇺🇬 to share these knowledge to young generation has they have been at home for two years and now they are back to school. Stay with me and keep track on the benefits why you should recommend your child to meditate always. #meditation #children #childeducation #child #childrenmentalhealth #childrenmeditation #anapana #anapanameditation #yoga #yogaeverywhere #yogafun #yogadaily #slumvillage #educational #motivation #inspiration #encouragement #SwingDanceUganda #heartofdanceafricanrhythm #yogateacher #okurutgeorge https://www.instagram.com/p/CZXyB8Loy2Y/?utm_medium=tumblr
