How We Do It: Healthy Habits for Successful Kids (Part 1 of 3)

According to Katherine Lewis, author of the new book The Good News About Bad Behavior, we are in a crisis of self-regulation among kids today. This, she explains, is the reason why nearly half (50%) of today's children will develop a mood disorder, behavioral disorder or substance abuse problem by age 18.

“The rise of social media and web culture, which has us "always looking outside ourselves," along with the decline of community and unstructured play time. Today's children tend to roam the world as independent contractors, and are taught to focus more on individual achievement rather than their contributions to family, neighborhoods and friends.”  

We believe Yoga can bridge that gap. With the trend of individual achievement, kids can learn how to contribute their gifts to their local communities and in turn, create positive global impact.
