I used the book 'My Heart fills with Happiness' for 3 yoga sessions this week.

(and saw it on the shelf of this weekend!)

Heres what some kiddos shared fills their heart with happiness:

💛'I get ice cream with my dad'

💛'Love'

💛'When I see a dog!'

And here's some ways my heart filled with happiness at Take A Leaf this week:

🌿A camp day with new friendships, sharing, kindness and bubbles!

🌿A child new to meditation sat and meditated in free time! Peace begins with me!

🌿Spending time in the beautiful Prana Yoga space on their last day.

🌿Walking barefoot on the grass and doing flower Toega with awesome families.

🌿Improvising a 4-4.30pm daycare sessionwithout music and have a kid turn to me and say 'This is the best yoga ever!'
