Rainbow Breaths & Big Feelings

Today both our Mini’s (ages 3–6) and Littles (ages 7–11) explored emotions through a colourful yoga adventure.

We used our colourful scarves to help guide us through our rainbow breaths reaching up to draw a rainbow in the sky, then gently sweeping it down with an exhale. These scarves also became part of our movement, helping us express how different emotions feel in our bodies as we moved through our strong, happy, calm, and peaceful poses.

The older Littles had slightly deeper chats around recognising and expressing their feelings, while the Minis responded beautifully through movement and story.

We finished with our relaxation, helping everyone float home a little more settled and a little more centred.

A huge thank you to both the new and familiar faces that joined us this evening 💜

In an I Am Zen class we blend yoga, breath work, and creative activities to support emotional wellbeing from an early age helping children feel calm, confident, and connected.

If you’d like to join us for the next session, feel free to get in touch 💬

Thank you so much for popping by, attending my classes, for liking and sharing my posts and for your lovely recommendations. Your continued engagement is invaluable and means so much for small businesses like mine ❤️

My name is Katie, owner and founder of I am Zen NI. I am a qualified children’s and teens yoga teacher, meditation and mindfulness coach, an infant massage instructor (although I don’t hold classes), I’m a Reiki Master Teacher, a Six Bricks practitioner, a mental health first aider and currently almost a breath work facilitator. Out side of that I’m a rainbow (girl guides) leader, a mummy to two beautiful girls aged 13 & 19, and our 12yr old pup , a wife, a daughter, a sister, an aunty, a friend and well, just me 😁.

Some would describe me as bubbly, some as talkative (I love a good natter) I like to think Im a happy go lucky kind of person, ready with a friendly smile, encouraging word or listening ear, I’m always 90 miles a minute!

Im a self confessed cake addict who loves a glass of wine on a Friday night.
I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by the people who make my heart smile.

I founded I am Zen in 2018 because of my own passion for mindfulness and yoga which I first discovered the amazing benefits of after the birth of my 2nd daughter. Totally overwhelmed with the responsibility for two tiny humans and my second wrestle with post natal depression I was super anxious.

Anxiety wasn’t a stranger to me, I’d been there before, I’d been there a million times, I was an anxious child who became an anxious teen and then an anxious adult.

Starting yoga, I was quickly hooked!
The time to relax and just simply ‘be’ was invaluable and over time I noticed massive changes personally in how I approached situations in life and how I could put the practices I’d learnt in class into my everyday life. I wish I’d been taught these tools as a child and I knew then that I wanted to teach them to children everywhere.

My Mission - To teach children to believe in the power of believing in themselves, mind, body and soul❤️

As the first children’s yoga classes in my area I had no idea how it would be received, I had no idea that I am Zen would succeed or of the impact I would make to not only the lives of the children I meet but to their parents, carers, brothers and sisters; yet here I am seven years on with my own premises, regular clients and two awards under my belt!

I couldn’t do it without the support and love I have been shown from all my amazing yogis and their families who are all so special to me!!! Thank you!

I am so grateful for you all! It really warms my heart and I will be forever grateful to every single person who has joined me on my journey and believed 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️🙏🏻

So this is me and I am Zen 😊 ....
