  1. Brian,

    Great graphic, thanks! California is not surprising but 34 schools in Pennsylvania is. Interesting.

    It would be amazing to see more meditation in schools in the US. Hopefully educational leaders can cut through the stereotypes (i.e. meditation is religion, meditation is a waste of time, etc.) to drive positive change. Thanks for sharing this with us 🙂

    PS Thought you might find it interesting that one of my yoga teachers who grew up in India said that they were taught Ashtanga Yoga as part of the primary cirriculum in elementary school.
