BOOK with LittleTREE Yoga CD
NEW BOOK and CD
Yoga Makes Me Feel ... by Yael Calhoun, Illustrated by Svea Lunoe
This book is offered as a way to introduce young children to yoga. Young children immediately connect
with yoga for two simple reasons: yoga is intuitive and yoga is fun. Yoga can provide children with the
same benefits as adults: increased energy, body awareness and definition, balance, strength, focus and
concentration, and stress management skills. But doing yoga with children has a wonderful difference.
Science continues to show us that the young mind is much more open to change and to learning new
things -- music and languages are good examples. So what better time in life to introduce someone to a
powerful tool for healing, for stress management, and for exploring who we are?

1. Introduction (2:22)
2. Let's Act Like Animals (11:00)
(*CD is the audio version of the LittleTREE Yoga DVD below)
I love this book! The combination of vocal and physical activities in combination with the bright playful pictures makes yoga accessible to all of us. It highlights yoga in a playful way, giving teachers and parents all over the world, a fun easy way to engage children in a traditionally adult form of meditation and relaxation. ~ Beth Brewster, Executive Director, Giving Asha, USA and Nepal
Research is finally starting to confirm what has long been known: that doing yoga helps improve the flexibility, strength, discipline, and joy of our bodies, minds, and souls. Yael and Svea will take the children in your life on a journey that can expand their horizons. What a gift! ~ Emily Traupman, PhD, RYT, Seattle, WA
Yoga Makes Me Feel... is accessible, down to Earth and an eye-pleasing treat. Surely it will spark the imagination of any child, all the while providing the incredible physical and physiological benefits of the ancient art. ~ Katy Proietti, RYT, Denver, CO
We are very excited to use Yoga Makes Me Feel... as a tool in our Therapeutic Preschool Program to teach not only the different yoga poses for calming and soothing, but for learning to identify feelings and emotions. The bright engaging pictures interest and captivate preschoolers, encouraging them to try the different poses. Our preschool groups can use the poses during times of dysregulation to increase structure, individual body awareness, and to down regulate the group into a calmer state.
~ Sandra Valentine, LCSW, The Children's Center, Salt Lake City
Yoga Makes Me Feel... is beautifully illustrated and written simply for children to explore the poses and learn about their bodies. It will serve as an excellent foundation for a lifelong habit of stretching and body awareness.
~ Nicole Mihalopoulos, MD, MPH, Salt Lake City

"Best kids' Yoga book on the market today…" ~ Lilias Folan
FitYoga Review Click Here
Catalyst Review Click Here
"Making the practice of yoga simple is not easy. But the authors have done just that, providing an inspiring and upbeat book that will not only charm children but also educate and support their teachers."
~ Judith Hanson Lasater, Ph.D., PT, yoga teacher since 1971, and the author of six books, including 30 Essential Yoga Poses
"It feels like the authors have emptied their hearts to share the beauty of yoga with children, teachers, and parents. There is so much richness in the book. The relaxation techniques at the end of the book are amazing. One of my 11 year old students said the other day, I love Yoga because it begins with you are beautiful and perfect not that you are bad and wrong. My heart dances when people like Yael and Matthew take their time and energy to serve children and graciously and generously share so much."
~ Sheryl Edsall, Director of Naturally Yoga in New Jersey and creator of Barefoot Kids Yoga

“…contains a wealth of yoga exercises that kids will find fun, challenging and relaxing…packed with practical suggestions for teachers who want to share their love of yoga ...” “Too often we forget that Yogis see our world as the “play” (lila) of a creative and loving Goddess. This book introduces kids to Yoga the way it should be practiced by people of all ages: as a joyous celebration of life. The poses included are both accessible and challenging, the instructions and background information clear and age-appropriate, at the same time warm and inviting. If you teach kids or teens--heck, if you teach adults--this book will be an invaluable resource.” “This book should be on the shelf wherever children and young adults gather. Clear, creative instruction offers many opportunities to learn and teach yoga. From meditation and relaxation, slow flow to intense asana, there is much information here. The book also introduces the "SOLA Stikk"...a tool to hold poses longer and encourage alignment in the asanas." Marsha Wenig, Founder, YogaKids® International. www.yogakids.com “Lots of studies show how much we all need to exercise and to reduce our stress. And this is even true for our youngest citizens. Luckily the authors have created a great guide for learning not only yoga poses but also for understanding the deeper truths upon which yoga is based. Highly recommended for teachers of this special age group.” ~ Judith Hanson Lasater, Ph.D., PT. Author of 30 Essential Yoga Poses and A Year of Living Your Yoga. www.judithlasater.com “Yoga for Kids to Teens is an excellent resource for anyone who wants to share yoga with children. It is user-friendly, straight-forward, full of relevant themes, facts and tips as well as great coaching from an experienced teacher.” |
