In addition to raising two kids, she's  a Course Creator, College Professor, and Podcast Host of "From My Mat to Yours" (available anywhere you listen to your podcast). Show Notes There a number of styles of Yoga. Be sure to do some research and  find what works for you. There  is Yoga for mindfulness, Yoga for a workout, Yoga with music and Yoga without. There is Yoga that focuses on the energy centers (Chakras) and Kenya has found that really helpful in learning to be more present and understanding, especially with her children. She has learned how to be more mindful of her thoughts which in turn, has helped her to teach her kids that, too. Once we 'get it', we can help our kids with mindfulness and recognizing that there are always consequences (positive or negative) to our actions. When we are more mindful, we can see that we have both choice and responsibility. This always applies to ourselves and to our children. Some tips about what you should look for in yoga and how to make it a regular part of your week: Ask: What do you want to accomplish with Yoga?  Reduce stress? Burn calories? Build strength? Do your best to establish a regular time to practice Yoga. Schedule it into your planner. Start with a duration that is workable, like 20 minutes. Do it 2x a week to begin with and establish a habit. Aim for accomplishing this - so you have the experience of success.
