| We
do yoga for the fun of it, to twist, stretch and
move around is pleasant and enjoyable; A body
holiday. There is an unexpected delight in meeting
the earth and the sky at the same moment.
Quote by Vanda Scoravelli
Many children spend hours sitting before television
sets, playing computer games, etc. They are often
driven to and from school. Sit all day at their
desks and when walking, carry heavy schoolbags
around. In general, children basically, have become
far less physically active than years ago.
