Book of the Month: Yoga Storytime

Yoga Storytime by Miriam R. Aventos is a simple picture book that explains how yoga began in India and gives easy instruction on how to start yoga, the poses, and what is so beneficial about practicing it.

Summary: Discover the basics of practicing yoga by tracing the story of its beginnings in India, showing how its earliest practitioners observed things in nature, such as trees, cats, snakes, and lions, and then imitated their poses. 

 Ages: For children of all ages

"Just breathe, nothing more."

The illustrations were as calming as the subject and this can be a very interactive book with your child. Poses can be tried, breathing exercises can be done, all while learning about the subject and India. 

I would recommend this book for any parents interested in introducing yoga to their child or practicing yoga together.
