Breath as a Gateway to the Self
SATURDAY / 2:10- 4:10
This workshop will be a guided discussion and experiential practice on the breath and how it relates to a deeper understanding of the self.
Yoga therapists often begin with clients by teaching breathing practices and will benefit from this thorough discussion of breathing as a behavior and what the drivers of various breathing behaviors may be.
Specifically, participants will gain greater confidence of respiratory physiology and mechanics, as well as the somatic, emotional, mental, social, and spiritual drivers of altered breathing behaviors.
Yoga therapists will learn how to use meditation, inquiry, and guided imagery to help clients transform their relationship to their breath and therefore, sense of self.
This framework will advance skills for all yoga therapists, especially those working with chronic pain, respiratory conditions, or trauma populations.
Yoga Therapy for Postpartum Recovery
SATURDAY / 4:30 - 6:30
When does a woman’s postpartum recovery end?
How can the birth experience alter a women’s connection to herself and her experience of the world around her?
Participants will gain an understanding of how to design a yoga therapy program that supports the need for the postpartum woman to reorganize and stabilize on many levels.
We will discuss how a comprehensive yoga therapy plan will integrate the unique musculoskeletal, emotional, mental, and spiritual needs of a woman after experiencing birth.
