Yoga for Trauma Healing

In this 3 week closed group (same participants each week), we will focus on Shame/ Inadequacy. The group follows the principles of trauma informed care; developing safety, trust, offering choice, collaboration, and empowerment. Perfect for one who has never done yoga, because every movement is optional. I even offer chairs if you would like to try movement in a chair versus mat.

We will learn how these feelings of shame/ inadequacy show up in our body. We will learn about the nervous system and ways to regulate our nervous system. Each group follows a similar sequence;

Psychoeducation – around trauma, the nervous system, and healing

Self-Regulation- tools / skills provided to help you learn to consciously regulate your nervous system.

Somatic psychotherapy practices- practices that help you explore sensations and messages that the body is holding so you can gain deeper self-awareness and discharge unresolved trauma from the body, mind, soul.

Self Study / Meditation- for inward reflection and inner peace.

Pranayama- intentional deep breathing (sometimes survivors are distressed by attending to the breath. Participating in the pranayama is always a choice, not a requirement)

Asana and mudra- yoga postures and hand gestures that help release pain and increase freedom in the body, mind, and soul.
