"With big changes come bigger learnings. In the online learning space, our students (and honestly ourselves as educators!) contend with countless new challenges: distractions, shared spaces, lack of eye contact, missed social cues, passive observation and more.
Amid these challenges, how can we as educators and families ensure engagement, connection and quality learning within the students under our care?
We’re here to share what we’ve learned with you. In this month’s toolkit, you will:
Understand the imbalances in the mind-body that may happen during distance learning,
Identify when you and your students may be experiencing overstimulation of mental/cognitive domain and under-stimulation of physical, emotional and social domains, and
Learn 8 accessible yoga and mindfulness tools to feel connected and engaged during distance learning.

"‘Tis the season of gratitude and reflection, of homecomings and joyous tidings... At least, that’s what the end-of-year holiday time usually brings. While we acknowledge that this year has been anything but usual, simply saying “2020 is different” feels like too obvious an understatement.
Many of us simply aren’t ready or even willing to reflect on a year of thwarted plans, grave safety concerns, and extraordinary challenges to our core values and identities. Even so, we realize that some kind of closure, however small or personal, is essential to moving forward with courage and wholeheartedness.
With this toolkit, we share our favorite practices for heart-centered breathwork, movement and mindful presence. The journey of returning to joy can carry us through sorrow, anger or exhaustion, and we provide tools here to support you with release, relief and rest.
