Sometimes stress can make you feel like you want to growl(咆哮) like a bear. Now that we've watched theKidsHealth.org videos on yoga, we'll try a few exercises ourselves. When we're feeling stressed, we can do these exercises so we can be yoga bears instead of growling bears.
Try belly breathing. Inhale (吸气)and exhale slowly while sitting in the chair. This can really help when you're feeling angry, frustrated, or upset.
Try neck stretches(伸展). Remember, these might be good exercises to do right before taking a test.
Try silly faces. Open your mouth wide and make bug eyes, then scrunch up your whole face in a way that makes your eyes seem narrow. Look at a partner and see who can make the silliest face.
Try body stretches. This can really make you feel better.
Stand up so we can try the horse stance with lion's breath.
Now that we're done, everyone say "Namaste!" to each other. The word means" bowing to you".
a. make silly faces with your partners
b. sit in your chair
c. stretch your shoulder, wrist and other parts.
d. try some neck stretches
e. stand up
