MOVING TO RECOVERY
6 week program to address mental health: stress, anxiety, trauma and depression
PsiYoga offers a unique program that promotes understanding of mental health from both a yoga framework and the framework of recovery. It brings an understanding of psychological and scientific principles to the practice of yoga and mindfulness to promote wellbeing on multiple levels: physical, mental, emotional and social. Research reveals that faster and more long-term healing occurs through the intelligent integration of mind and body techniques.
Over six weeks participants will learn to incorporate:
-
Breath based movements to help regulate and calm the nervous system, as well as supported restorative yoga poses that facilitate deep rest and relaxation
-
Learning safe and effective breathing techniques that mobilise the parasympathetic nervous system to balance the stress response system, and regulate the mind and emotions.
-
Evidence based techniques you can use in your daily life
-
Bottom up (somatic) versus Top Down (cognitive) approaches are explained and explored in practice
-
Important contraindications and guidelines for stress, anxiety and depression
-
Provide a safe and supportive community
