Perseverance marks a student’s ability to keep going despite the many challenges that often present themselves. This inner source of strength supports students as they navigate the many obstacles that can inhibit them from leading a healthy, happy, and productive life.

The mindful breath practice Lion’s Breath invites students engage in a practice that holds space for and celebrates inner strength and courage. The symbol of the lion is representative of the courage, strength, and the bravery it takes to keep going. The accompanying yoga posture, Chair Pose, is a practice with the capacity to welcome and embrace a challenge and tune into your body and breath. Chair Pose provides the opportunity for students to cope with challenge and celebrate their strength and resilience.
