Sid's Yoga Adventure

Sid’s Yoga Adventure By: Kiara Morales

Sid is very nervous for the first day of 3rd grade tomorrow and does not know what to do.

Sid’s dad tell’s him it is okay to cry. It is normal to feel anxious before 3

for the first day of school, many kids feel the same way.

Sid’s dad said, follow me I will show you some tips and tricks to deal with nervous and worried feelings.

4

The first thing we are going to do is practice yoga! It is simple, just follow what I do.

5

I will show you my favorite yoga pose. First, stand up straight put your feet together and focus your attention on something in the room.

6

Take a few deep breaths, put your feet together, and raise your right leg off the floor. The sole of your foot should be touching the inside of your left thigh.

7

Lastly, stretch your arms up towards the ceiling and press your palms together. And that’s it, you just did the tree pose! Great job Sid. 8

Another thing I do to relax and calm down is practice mindfulness. I just sit down, close my eyes, clear my mind, and focus on my breathing.

9

I try to practice yoga and mindfulness whenever I can. Especially on the days where I feel anxious, it helps me stay calm and relaxed.

Wow, thanks dad! I’m less nervous and excited to go to school tomorrow.
