School during COVID has been no easy thing, for all involved (students, parents, educators, and administrators). Yet returning to in-person school can bring its own uncertainties, anxieties, and other ways that can block those involved from doing and feeling their best. Yoga and mindfulness is no “silver bullet”, and sometimes professional clinical support is necessary -- yet these practices can offer moments of “reset” that bring calm, focus, and a greater feeling of clarity.
The following exercises can be easily integrated into the typical activities of a busy school day and help the young ones you care about, and maybe even yourself, feel better in the face of returning to in-person school. They’re appropriate and beneficial for all ages. Then, simply notice what can blossom from moments of greater calm and ease!

This is a great way to bring greater calm and focus into a simple activity that we do each day.
5-Breath Space Maker for Transitions
Notice the difference between taking the space and letting activities overlap. The mess will be reduced. The mind will be clear. It’s a wonderful transition activity for teachers and parents.
This straightforward activity can “reset” us to a more calm and centered place -- try it out for yourself!

In classrooms and communities around the world, educators and parents alike are placing a growing emphasis onsocial and emotional learning. And for good reason: helping children understand, manage, and express their emotions in healthy ways is just as critical as teaching them to read or do math.
