Today’s younger generation often face many expectations, stimulation through media and communication technologies, and increased pressure to succeed in school. These exposures and demands can result in stress and anxiety. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) lists yoga as a beneficial intervention for reducing stress and anxiety and improving mental health among adolescents. For younger kids, yoga builds coordination, balance, and self-regulation. For older kids, yoga also helps build flexibility, strength, and self-confidence. The emotional benefits can be especially helpful in the challenging tween and teen years, improving relationships, classroom behavior, and academic performance.
