“Our daughter finds doing yoga poses and breathing techniques a very helpful way of calming herself in times of distress and as a way of remaining in a calm state more often. She is becoming better at self calming rather than allowing her anxiety to take over and become “out of control”. I believe having a set of helpful skills such as those gained through yoga can help our daughter throughout her lifetime.
Thank you Loraine!” – Jonelle (mother)
