Body
Yoga therapy is not about doing a pose.
Designed around your specific needs, this movement builds your capacity to be guided by your internal sensations.
This intuitive movement is also informed by polyvagal and somatic science, and other physiological and neurophysiological systems that are preventing you from moving freely, breathing fully, and keeping you in pain and emotionally charged.
Breath
Patterns of breathing are central to the work of yoga therapy.
Much of the movement we do in yoga therapy is about freeing up primary breathing muscles and establishing a regular rhythm.
The combination of movement and breath increases
- interoception: your ability to sense internal physical and emotional shifts
- proprioception: where your body is in space and time
- neuroception: your body's automatic ability to respond appropriately to environmental signals
Spirit
Yoga therapy *may involve prayer, meditation or other spiritual practice, depending on your preference.
Layering this depth of meaning into a movement and breath practice isn't just a good thing to do for your soul, though that may be all the reason you need! It is also scientifically proven to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. It increases feelings of security, compassion, and love - and even slows down the aging process!
Prayer and meditation of your choosing can permanently change many structures and functions in the brain and alter the way you perceive your reality.
