Make yoga and meditation mandatory in primary and secondary schools in UK.

Increasing research evidence shows that children derive enormous benefits from yoga and meditation. Physically, it enhances their flexibility, strength, coordination and awareness. Mentally, they have enhanced sense of calmness and relaxation and their concentration improves, resulting in overall wellbeing. By integrating physical movement with breathing exercises, yoga serves as a promising form of physical and cognitive training to enhance learning related outcomes. ( Butzer et al, in press )
