Therapeutic Yoga for Trauma recovery is about finding ways of moving consciously with a sense of compassion, curiosity, and care. Using methods based on our current understanding of Interpersonal Neurobiology and neuropsychology (including Polyvagal Theory), we will embark on a journey of re-embodiment, co-regulation, healing, and discovery of reclaiming your deepest sense of belonging: to yourself, to others, and the world around you.

Trauma-focused or trauma-sensitive yoga is based on the understanding that trauma impacts the entire mind-body system. Bessel van der Kolk explains that “trauma is not just an event that took place sometime in the past; it is also the imprint left by that experience on mind, brain, and body.”
