Yoga–Another Tool for Confronting the Impact of Trauma
The last two decades of neuroscience research have advanced our understanding of the impact of trauma on our brain and nervous system. It showed us that regular talk therapy is not enough to treat the impact of trauma, because it lives in structures of the brain that do not respond to the words. We also learned that body–based practices like yoga have a very positive impact on the health and well–being of trauma survivors.
 
This course will bring you up–to–date on the latest and most relevant neuroscience research as it relates to trauma. It will also help you demystify yoga and understand how it can help. You will learn specific techniques and tools that you can use in individual and group work with your clients, as well as teach them and encourage the use of those tools outside of your office. You don't have to be a yoga teacher to integrate those techniques—they are simple and accessible to you and your clients regardless of physical or other limitations.

What You Should Bring:

  • Yoga/exercise mat

  • Water bottle

  • Wear comfortable clothing

6.0 CE clock hours for LPCs and PLPCs.  No NBCC credits available through LCA.

Presenter:  IRINA DIYANKOVA, PhD, RYT-200
