Have you ever wondered how yoga and meditation can improve your life, or maybe even your kids’ lives? In this episode, we sit down with Jessica Smith, a yoga instructor and mom of three young kids, to discuss how we can teach yoga and meditation to kids, and how it can improve their behavior and self-esteem. We also talk about her experience of deciding to stop distance learning and switch over to homeschooling.
