Teaching meditation to children

with Lorraine Murray

Yoga Spirit Studios is bringing Lorraine Murray from the UK to present her level 1 and 2 trainings, which are based on her book Calm Kids.

As a qualified aromatherapist, Reiki practitioner and meditation teacher running her own company Feel Good Therapies in the UK, Lorraine was keen to see children benefit as well, so she began approaching schools.

Working in a socially challenged school in Edinburgh presenting meditation a an elective for students, her program became so popular that Lorraine taught the teachers of the school to deliver it so they could also help children during regular classes.

From there she began teaching in schools and eventually wrote her book and developed a three part teacher training program so that more teachers can help more children.

The first two parts of the program will be delivered in this visit.

Level 1
