About this episode

Wendy discusses with Lauren Chaitoff how yoga can help children build resilience and emotional regulation.

What if yoga could help kids build resilience, emotional regulation, and confidence, without needing perfection, pressure, or performance? In this episode, Wendy sits down with Lauren Chaitoff, founder of Yogi Beans, to talk about how yoga practices can support kids through big feelings, hard moments, and the everyday challenges of growing up. Lauren shares how yoga helps children connect with their breath, bodies, emotions, and inner world in a way that builds self-awareness from the inside out. From holding a pose for one more breath to learning that “yoga is a practice, not a perfect,” this conversation is full of simple, doable ways to help kids grow resilience, self-compassion, and emotional steadiness. If you’ve ever wished your child had more tools to calm their body, move through discomfort, or believe in themselves when something feels hard, this episode will feel like such a breath of fresh air. ➡️ Head to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.freshstartfamilyonline.com/330 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for more info and links.⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📕 Grab your copy of ⁠⁠Fresh Start Your Family: Powerful Parenting to Restore Peace in Your Home⁠⁠ today! 🎶 Click here to check out the award winning Pep…
