Publisher Description:

Based on the teachings of The Sutras of Patanjali, A Child's Journey into Yoga is an inspiring story story that follows the life of a girl named Mica who learns to live yoga. With activities at the end of some of the chapters for teachers and parents to bring these ancient teachings to life. This book was designed to inspire young yogis to stay the course on their inward journey toward self-knowledge and inner peace.

This book is many things:

  • a full-color, 23-chapter story book
  • a coming-of-age story
  • a teaching book with activities
  • a reference for yoga principles
  • a thought-provoking collection of situations for children and adults.

A Child's Journey into Yoga contains insightful and practical teachings, including:

  • anxiety and anger management
  • meditation, concentration and self-awareness
  • karma, charity and selfless love
  • confidence, patience and perseverance
  • embracing rather than excluding different cultures
  • healthy and mindful lifestyle choices
  • simple explanations of key yoga concepts and Sanskrit terms

Authored by Lydia "Nitya" Griffith, the author and coproducer of the children's yoga DVD, "Yoga with Nitya." Nitya has devoted her life to bringing yoga into children's lives to spread peace, health and love. Illustrated by Nitya's student, Bella Nathanson, age 11.
