Kids' Imagination in Yoga

If there is one thing kids know how to do, it's play. And if you're teaching yoga to a child, you'll see how quickly s/he will take to the poses. In a practice like Kundalini yoga, for example, the concept of energy as a coiled snake within our spine is quite readily accepted by children. Their imaginations are so pure that as they practice the asanas and pranayamas, they will be more able to envision the symbols that enhance each stage of the practice.
