Yoga , is definitely good for the body ,mind
and overall well being. But what yoga can do for teachers- the
people of the noble profession of teaching is amazing. Today an
increasing number of teachers over the world are turning to
yoga.
A teacher who puts effort with his students
,loses vitality by his presence in the class everyday. This is
why teachers generally feel weary and run down- not from doing
physical labour (they usually have a lot of holidays), but
something which they can't make out. The energy which they seem
to have lost does not seem to come back even with sleep and
rest. They as a result sometimes get frustrated and irritable,
and as a consequence distance themselves from their students
even more, thus getting trapped in the vicious cycle. This is
not true to all teachers, but yet is very common. I'm sure most
of us will be able to remember (from our schooling/college
years) atleast one if not more of such teachers whom we never
really agreed with.
The solution for the teachers to become
better lies in yoga. Let's see a few points which can be
implemented in the class for a happier teacher and students.
