 On 9th of November, in the morning, a very interesting

extension workshop was organised with regard to
'Mindfulness in Classroom’. Ms. Prachi Tanwar
instructed all the students. The workshop comprised of
a variety of excercises as well as yogic postures such as
Virbhadra-2, Janu shirshasana, vashisht yoga, ardha
matsyendra, Trikonasana, Vrksasana and many more.
We followed along with Ms. Prachi.

 REFLECTIVE NOTE ...
 The overall experience can be concisely called 'refreshing’
and 'calming’ and According to me, that was exactly the
purpose it was meant to serve. The yogic postures and
exercises were really elaborate and some students even
struggled to do them perfectly but this workshop was
carried out in an azure garden with verdant trees and
resplendent firmament which significantly added up to the
beauty and harmony of the experience as a whole. Also,
the Calming effect lasted throughout the day.
