Over and over I get asked the same question - what exactly is Trauma-Sensitive Yoga and how is it different from other types of yoga? So let's clear that up shall we 👇👇
Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TSY) is a unique and tailored approach, designed for individuals who have experienced trauma, anxiety, and stress. It's a practice rooted in empathy, understanding, and gentle invitations —which can be quite different from traditional yoga classes that may focus solely on physical fitness, postures and "pushing through" to meet your edge/ultimate capacity 🥵
🧘♀️The principles of TSY (which are the foundations in our Reconnect course) include:
🌿INTEROCEPTION (Sensing the Body): We invite you to be curious about your internal world at your own pace so you can learn and understand your Nervous System more.
🌿CHOICE-MAKING: We invite the constant question of what feels right for you, what aligns with your needs in each moment and inviting a sense of control and agency over your experience moment to moment.
🌿TAKING EFFECTIVE ACTION: TSY isn't about complex shapes or sequences, instead it's about gentle, intentional movements that foster emotional support and self-compassion.
🌿PRESENCE: Mindfulness is at the heart of our practice. It's about being fully present in each moment. No right or wrong.
🤝 There's no rush, no competition—just a genuine focus on what feels comfortable and safe enough for your body and your experience. It's a space where you can really be as you need to be (hello nourishing self care!) 🤗
Reconnect is more than just a 10 week program of stress management strategies. It has been designed to nurture, provide space and choices in our hectic, overwhelming world - a sanctuary of well-being, a place where you can reconnect with your mind and body.
If you're seeking a gentle, compassionate approach to support you in your daily life, you're in the right place 🌻
