I would like to share a few thoughts about how yoga therapy differs from a regular yoga class and why can it have a transformative value in our lives.
Yoga Therapy defined by the International Association of Yoga Therapists:
Yoga therapy is the process of empowering individuals to progress toward improved health and well-being through the application of the teachings and practices of Yoga.
What a yoga therapist
does:
• Skillfully applies profound
theoretical, scientific and clinical knowledge together with the principles and practices of Yoga to address mental, emotional, physical and spiritual imbalances (dis-ease) in the individual
• Yoga Therapists work across
hospitals or in outpatient clinics, physical therapy, rehabilitation centers, aged-care facilities, military and in private practices
• Yoga Therapists assess and craft an individualized practice for clients, which may include:
- Combines breathing practices, meditation and imagery, philosophy, lifestyle advice, secular spirituality and physical movement
• Through a dynamic, therapeutic relationship, practices and protocols are crafted to empower the individuals in their journey towards greater well-being
• IAYT certified therapist have 1000+ hours training
• Clients often come to yoga therapy as a final refuge, after exhausting many other health alternatives
•Many yoga therapists are licensed in other healthcare modalities (i.e., PT, OT, RN, Psychology) and often work interactively with other healthcare practitioners
