I’m back to remind you how good yoga is for your child, especially if they have ADHD.

A study was conducted in 2006 comparing the effectiveness of yoga and conventional motor exercises for children with ADHD.

According to the parents, the children who were in the yoga group of the study, showed greater improvements in attention and reduced symptoms of ADHD.

By the end of the study, the children in the yoga group and the conventional motor exercise group improved.

The authors concluded that yoga could be an effective complementary or adjunctive therapy for children with ADHD.
