Grounded Blog

Sedef Dion who co-created our Pre-Grounded program shared with me the story of a four year old girl who in the cutest way mistakenly called Savasana....Lasagna.  This inspired me to write a Savasana visualization with a Lasagna theme that Amy and I recently used to connect with our Fernbank Elementary Yoga Club students.  After we did our practice complete with the Lasagna Savasana, one of our students..the Principal's  five year old daughter said..."that was so relaxing...this could help me fall asleep at night".  Since it was her birthday that day, we wanted to put together a recording that her parents could play for her as she settles down for a good night rest after a long day.  The artwork in the slideshow is that of our Fernbank students expressing themselves after the Savasana.
