Wanted: Mothers for the Congress

I recently signed the Mom Congress. I encourage all concerned mothers to sign it too! It's a great opportunity to have your voice heard in the congress. This will affect our children. As parents, we are naturally concerned about our children and their well being.

This is one reason I make sure my kids are doing yoga with Wai Lana Little Yogis. I know they will be living their own lives and making their own decisions. I want them to be able to have everything they need to stay healthy, and be healthy. I trust that Wai Lana Yoga can do that for them, as it's done it for me. Of course I don't force the issue on them, and I am thankful that they actually enjoy doing their yoga and always ask to do it even on days I've forgotten to put the tapes on.

Happy living!

Develop Healthy Habits Early

I've been volunteering at a nearby elementary school for the past two months, and more than ever, I realized the importance of developing healthy habits early in life. This responsibility lays largely on parents and teachers, who help a child develop the path and life they will eventually live- on their own. Seeing that many of the children were far above their healthy weight and were- at their tender ages- not very healthy, I raised my concern with the other teachers and parents. I introduced Wai Lana's Little Yogis series to them. Some parents faced my ideas with a little apprehension, while others welcomed the concern. I proposed that the children try it out even just for two weeks, and from there they could assess whether it was working on not.

The funny thing is that many of the parents were surprised that the kids absolutely loved the fun songs and doing the yoga poses with Wai Lana. After two weeks, the parents all voted that the 30 minute "yoga fun and way with Wailana" would continue, and even got Wailana's daydream CD for kids for the preschool children.

I hope and trust that this is a great way to start these children on a healthy lifestyle. As they become accustomed to feeling great and having good fun doing yoga, they will always look forward to it throughout their lives, or at least know how wonderful yoga can make them feel. Kids need to relax too! My next project now is to introduce less sugary snacks, and I know Wailana yoga yogi bars and snacks for kids will be perfect for this.

A new line of children’s yoga products called Little Green Yogis has been released by Wai Lana, host of the long-running PBS television series Wai Lana Yoga, aimed at parents who are looking for eco-friendly ways to help their children stay healthy, safe and happy.

This new line helps kids learn to love yoga and exercise, leading them toward greater fitness, balance and well-being. At the same time, it also uses non-toxic, ecologically sustainable materials that are kid friendly and planet friendly too.

“As a parent, I’ve enjoyed watching my own children grow up to embrace healthy lifestyles” says Wai Lana “and I know that a little encouragement when they’re young goes a long way. That is why I’m pleased to be able to offer parents fun and healthy products for children that are also good for the planet.”

Little Green Yogis includes a kid-sized, phthalate-free yoga mat as well as a kid’s sized Stretch N Play Eco Yoga Ball Kit. Kids can also tote their mat with a Little Green Yogis Tote Kit which includes a tote made from recycled materials, a yoga mat, a cartoon poster with 21 poses and Wai Lana’s award winning Little Yogis DVD, as well as silly cartoon stickers.
Wai Lana’s Little Green Yogis will be available this year on Earth Day, April 22nd. Wai Lana’s already popular Little Yogis line of children’s product includes exercise DVDs, music CDs, mats, kits, games, and activity books and can be seen online at www.wailana.com.
