This month’s theme is Root to Rise
Trauma can disconnect us from our bodies and leave us feeling uprooted from the ground we walk upon. Likewise, collective traumas can lead us to feel uprooted from our land and cultural traditions…leaving us feeling ungrounded and disconnected from the body of the earth. From a yogic perspective, the root cause of suffering is not knowing the truth of who you are. Yoga is a path back to that truth of Self.
Therapeutic yoga is tremendously effective, in part because of how yoga interacts with your vagus nerve. Your yoga practice helps you to become increasingly flexible…not just of the physical body but in your nervous system. This will help you become skilled at switching between sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system with greater ease and choice.
Research has shown tremendous benefits of yoga for increased vagal tone, stress reduction, and trauma recovery. Therapeutic Yoga for Trauma emphasizes mat-based practices that walk you through the sacred path of yoga to facilitate your own courageous journey of self-discovery and help you release the adverse effects of trauma from your body and mind.
I would love to have the opportunity to practice with you!

Key principles of class:
You are your own best teacher
Listen to the cues you receive from your body, mind, and breath about the state of your nervous system
Honor your body, your pace, and let your breath be your guide
Each posture is an opportunity to explore
There is nothing to perfect and no goal to achieve
Follow your instincts and make the practice a unique expression of you
Have fun and let yourself find your inner joy
Stop and rest as often as you would like
Let this practice nourish your body, mind, and soul
