VFit Kids – Lets Get Ready for Dreamland

Share

VFit is back with a BRAND NEW series and this one is for the kids! Join Shari as she brings us a soul soothing and calming set of stretches for our little ones to enjoy. Rest is of utmost importance for our kids growth and development, (and parental sanity), so enjoy this new series:

Studies have shown that kids who practice mindfulness tend to have better self-control and attentiveness in class.  Meditation also helps alleviate stress, depression, ADHD, and anxiety in children.

Although the rate of children participating in mindfulness and meditation is rising, it still only includes around 9% of today’s youth.    (https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/08/health/yoga-meditation-rising-cdc-report/index.html)

Even though, meditation has been proven beneficial to people of all ages, including children, it should never be forced or used as punishment.  Instead, provide gentle encouragement and model by example.

The following video is a great place to start as it will guide your child (and perhaps yourself) off to dream land.  It includes a gentle stretching session followed be a mindful visualization to help ease your child into a goodnight’s sleep.

About Shari

Shari is VFit’s resident miracle worker from Texas! She leads an “Unwind” class, unlike anything you’ve ever experienced. But don’t let her zen like ways fool you. She can deliver just as Yang of a high intensity class and leave your muscles “good” sore for days to come.
 
“Born and raised in Texas, I was a competitive gymnast in grade school and went on to be a competitive twirler in High School.
I attended college at The University of Texas in Austin, majoring in English and Kinesiology.

Having always had a love for physical fitness, I taught group fitness throughout college, and upon graduating was hired to teach public school.With the demands of a new job and a new husband, exercise became my time to unwind.

With my 3 children now in school, I returned to my first career as a group exercise instructor.

Yoga is one of my favorite styles to teach because it has something for everyone. It is healing and strengthening all in one. It truly is the complete package.

When not in the gym teaching, I enjoying spending time outdoors hiking and exploring with my husband and 3 children.

We are avid travelers who enjoy each new adventure that we encounter. All three of my children are very active in competitive sports.”
