Abstract

Many elementary school age students have not yet developed sufficient strategies for stress management, and particularly may be unaware of the benefits of yoga. Because they do not have well-developed strategies, they are more vulnerable to negative effects of stress such as poor behavior problems or low school performance. Yoga may help these children better manage stress. Therefore, I created a three-day lesson for fourth graders at Virginia Rocca Barton Elementary School in Salinas, California.
