This class is a beginning class for anyone interested in using yoga as a part of trauma recovery. Before class, I talk with Lisa Danylchuk. Lisa is a psychotherapist and a Yoga for Trauma specialist. She and I discuss the benefits of yoga for someone recovering from trauma and tips for how to start a practice with this in mind. For more information about Lisa and resources for Yoga for Trauma Recovery visit howwecanheal.com

The class portion of this podcast will be 40 minutes long.

Allow yourself to take rests and make choices for yourself during this class. Ask yourself if the pose you are doing feels good to you. Give yourself the choice to rest, and invite yourself to do something different if it is not agreeing with you at the moment.

If you are coming to this class a second or third time and you would like to skip to the class portion, it begins around 22 minutes.

I am currently teaching live yoga asana classes via Zoom. You can find my full weekly schedule at BODY MATTER
