Jessie - thank you for sharing this! I re-posted it to the ACEs in Education , Practicing Resilience and ACEs and Child Care communities to share there as well. This can be used in many settings!

Jessie - Your ideas are inspiring and so timely! As I read your description and overview this plan seems so do-able. I am wondering if you see any behavioral changes in the students following the yoga session(s)? I am also wondering if you may be aware of any preschool curriculum that has incorporated mindful practices such as yoga? This seems like such a great idea - I just wonder how mainstream these practices may be. Your work is inspiring! Please keep writing and sharing!! Karen
