ABOUT GOOD MORNING YOGA

helping kids and families have calm + focused days

Kids love yoga—and it's great for them, so much so that the President's Council has added the practice to the fitness activities in the annual President's Challenge. For parents and caregivers looking for a fun and effective new routine for bedtime, innovative educator Mariam Gates presents Good Morning Yoga, a great way to meet all the moments of a child's day with focus, calm and joy!

Calm and awake, "I can do this!"
is all I need to say.
A deep breath in, a long breath out - I am ready for the day!"

This "wake up" story is so much more than a story. It's a practice for kids and parents to greet the morning with joy and embark on their daily adventures with intention and confidence. Turn the page and reach up to the sky, press your feet into the earth, and get ready for a great day!

Praise for Good Morning Yoga: A Pose by Pose Wake Up Story by Mariam Gates, Illustrations by Sarah Jane Hinder

Read Book Reviews

"A great book that can give our kids the fundamentals of a good life-a life that comes from living from the inside out."

-Congressman Tim Ryan, author of A Mindful Nation

"Mariam Gates' ability to entertain while teaching correct yoga poses at the same time amazes me. Good Morning Yoga is perfect for kids, but I have to admit that I had a blast practicing while reading it, so I wouldn't limit it only to young yogis..."

-Kathryn Budig, yoga teacher and author of Aim True

"Mariam Gates weaves in the beautifully illustrated yoga postures in such a uniquely creative and exciting way...What a great way to start a young life. I wish I'd had this book when I was five!"

-Beryl Bender Birch, author of Power Yoga, Beyond Power Yoga, and Yoga for Warriors

"Good Morning Yoga is absolutely perfect! What a wonderful beginning for children towards a lifetime yoga practice."

- Bryan Kest, Creator of Power Yoga

"Mariam Gates has done it again.Your family will love this accessible adventure into yoga... Kids of all ages will remember the rhythm of her rhymes for years to come."

-Elena Brower, author of Art of Attention

"...Here in lies the secret to unhurried mornings, family harmony, and well-being."

-Katrina Kenison, author of Mitten Strings for God and The Gift of an Ordinary Day

"...I know Good Morning Yogais going to help make the world a better place."

-Sarah Gardner, founder, Yoga Reaches Out

"This joyful and inspiring book offers an incredible way to start your child's day."

- Jennifer Cohen Harper, author, Little Flower Yoga for Kids: A Yoga and Mindfulness Program to Help Your Child Improve Attention and Emotional Balance

"After helping young readers gently end their days in Good Night Yoga (2015), Gates and Hinder return with a salutation for their mornings... Hinder's playful illustrations animate Gates' descriptions and affirmations. Each character fully embodies his or her pose as if ready to leap off the page. The balance of bold and soft colors mirrors the energizing yet focused movements of the stretches. Young readers will easily see themselves in one of the many diverse children in the book. Also included are a recap of the poses with short instructions and a guided visualization that adults can read to children. An energizing yoga practice portrayed by lively and diverse characters that should inspire multiple readings."
