Art Of Living

ART OF LIVING

During the first week of school, like every year, the school organised for my generation an activity called ´´art of living´´. This activity consisted on learning a lotof values of life, as well as learning some breathing exercises and some relaxing exercises such as ´´el saludo del sol´´, and also duing some yoga. The classes of art of living started oncewe finished our lunch, and every day of school during that week except for Wednesday we had the classes of art of living for 3 hours.
During the courses, we made a lot of interestingactivities. Every day we made the same things except for the last day. We always started by doing some yoga. It was very comfortable to start the class by doing relaxing exercises. We then madethe breathing exercises, and then proceeded to do the´´saludo al sol´´, which were a series of stretching exercises that also relaxed the body. After making those relaxing exercises, we playedsome games to finish the class, and then usually the teacher sent us some special homework such as being vegetarian for one day, or making some good actions.
The last day of ´´art ofliving´´ was different. We didn´t do any yoga and relaxing exercise. The whole class we made games, and the teacher recited us a poem made up by him. I think it was really good. I think thatduring this week I learnt a lot of things. For example, during a game I learnt to work with my class mates, and during an other i learnt to trust them in order to win the game. Apart of this, ialso learnt that it is important to eat vegetarian once some time, because it is important to the world in general.
In conclusion, i think it was a very nice activity. I learnt really alot of things but what i really think that is the most important of this is that they make you value the life in general, and i thimk this is a very important thing to live a good life.
