Chakras & Superpowers: A Blissful Yoga Adventure for Kids
Chakras & Superpowers: A Blissful Yoga Adventure for Kids
It all began one morning while scrolling Grounded Kids Yoga’s Facebook page. Co-Founder Amy Haysman had posted a super cool photo of Deepak Chopra’s book The Seven Spiritual Laws of Superheroes—and the cover instantly captured my imagination.
There she was: a new kind of superhero with the world in her hands and the words, “Harnessing Our Power to Change the World.” I had to learn more.
In the book, Chopra teaches us that when we explore the boundaries of energy and awareness, we better understand ourselves—and unlock the potential to change the world. YES. This made total sense to me. And so, I accepted the challenge: to save the world, one Chakra at a time.
From Inspired to Ignited
As I dove into my own Chakra journey, I felt more grounded, creative, present, and aware than ever before. My soul opened up—and I knew I had to bring this to my students.
Tapping Into Super Powers with Yoga
Kids LOVE discovering their inner super powers. Teaching them about the Chakra system through movement, breath, and storytelling made yoga not only accessible—but empowering.
As we balanced each energy center, the kids became more in tune with their bodies, emotions, and strengths. Their senses sharpened, and their confidence blossomed.
Just like Hulk, Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, and Supergirl have superpowers… so do we! When we activate our inner energy, life becomes more blissful.
Foundation, safety, and living in the present moment. Helps us feel secure and grounded.

Creating Chakra Superheroes
Each week, we explored a new Chakra and designed our own Chakra Superhero. Kids drew, named, and embodied their unique powers. Our heart-centered theme was always: Bliss.
Anusara Yoga founder John Friend once said, “Yeah, I’m blissed out. I’m dancing better with the Divine all the time.”
That’s how I want our kids to feel. Blissed out. Joyful. Empowered. Connected.
By the end of our journey, each student had a new way of expressing themselves—and tools to tap into their full potential.
“Chakraaariffic!” became our battle cry.

Grown-ups like numbers. When you tell them about a new friend, they never ask questions about what really matters. They never ask: “What does his voice sound like?” “What games does he like best?” “Does he collect butterflies?” They ask: “How old is he?” “How many brothers does he have?” “How much does he weigh?” “How much does his father make?” Only then do they think they know him. If you tell grown-ups, “I saw a beautiful red brick house, with geraniums at the windows and doves on the roof…” They won’t be able to imagine such a house. You have to tell them “I saw a house worth a hundred thousand francs.” Then they exclaim, “What a pretty house!”…That’s the way they are. You must not hold it against them. Children should be very understanding of grown-ups.
“How do you become flexible on the Inside?”
