    Finding Flow with Prof. Billy Hawkains, III

    Prof. Hawkains presents "Finding Flow," a movement practice that integrates Somatic and meditative practices such as Safety Release, Yoga, and Qigong, for the sake of promoting body-mind-spirit connectivity and longevity, and conscious connection to the breath. Breathing is a vital part of our existence as humans. That said, it is vital that we consciously consider the breath throughout our daily activities and bodily movements. This is an excellent activity to do first thing in the morning before class, during recess (or a substitute for recess even), quiet times and nap times, and just before the end of the school day. Feel free to modify any movements when necessary.
