Yoga therapy for mental health practices are designed to suit all abilities. They consider what may be triggering, and how to make each practice a healing experience for YOU. All poses and practices are trauma informed.

We start by releasing tension held in your body, building awareness of maladaptive emotions, and re-patterning dis-regulated nervous system responses. In regular language that means you become more aware of the things that cause you to react in a way that isn’t healthy. Once you build awareness you can use yoga tools that help you to, more easily, shift out of these reactions.

Yoga has been shown to be very helpful at alleviating anxiety and depression. In my experience many group yoga classes, by necessity, adopt a one-size-fits-all approach that lacks the personalized attention needed to address individual mental health needs. For example, it’s common for people with anxiety to feel anxious about queues like “take a deep breath.” It can also be very unhelpful to lie in Savasana (relaxation) for long-periods. In one-on-one Yoga Therapy we can work through these issues, develop modifications and uncover practices that will be most helpful so that you can benefit from the healing power of yoga.

If Yoga Therapy sounds like it might be a good fit then I would be honoured to support you and encourage you to schedule a free consultancy call so you can decide if Yoga Therapy is right for you.
