Below is a powerful quote from the article, “7 Ways Yoga Helps Teens” by Psychology Today:
“Yoga is fast becoming one of the most popular health practices, with over 1.7 million children and teens practicing yoga-- a number that has grown by 400,000 in the last decade. Many schools are now offering movement and mindfulness programs to help reduce stress, improve mood, and promote physical fitness. Yoga during this formative period is useful for developing healthy exercise habits in general as well as strength, flexibility, and balance. The timing of yoga for teens is also particularly important for the mind because the brain continues to develop throughout early to late teenage years.”
