Stress, Trauma and Recovery Sensitive Yoga
Yoga is a wonderful self-care opportunity, with time for relaxation and connection as well as movement, pranayama, meditation and more. Classes include practices to improve sense of well-being, physically, emotionally and mentally. The self-awareness and self-acceptance developed on the mat can be used to support us in our daily life. We can learn to be with opposites and breathe through challenges, redirect the mind and so much more.
Yoga means unity, bringing together the different aspects that make us whole. There are techniques for body, mind and soul. It can be mainly body based – energetic, strong, flowing, gentle, restorative and healing or more reflective and developmental. No practice is right, wrong, better or less. Each has value and may be supportive.
I adapt movement and postures to where you are at any time to support optimal health, well being and stage of your life. All ages, shapes and sizes are welcome. The benefits are many. I hear most that sessions create a feeling of relaxation, many sleep very well on yoga day, it helps free niggles in back, back and shoulders as well to create and maintain a strong healthy back.
“Advanced” yoga practice is learning to know AND accept yourself, your story and history. It is listening to your body, adapting, resting as needed.
The rewards of yoga practice include:
- Improved sleep, digestion, and health
- Feeling calm and peaceful
- It can lead to more fulfilling relationships and life
Private and group classes available.
Classes run as courses and create a wonderfully supportive community where everyone feels comfortable and safe to rest, try or not try certain movements and be themselves whatever life is throwing at them.
“When I left Aylesbury I thought I was going to cry when I had my last yoga class, I was more upset about that than all the great friends I’d made” Zoe
