Trauma Sensitive Yoga, what is it all about and how might my clients benefit?
Currently in the US there is increased discussion of yoga in the general culture and specifically in treatment settings. As yoga becomes more “mainstream” it brings both opportunities and risks especially as it relates to mental and behavioral health care.
Yoga can foster mental and emotional well-being, especially for those who have experienced trauma. But not all yoga is created equal. Some forms of yoga may provoke negative physical and emotional responses for trauma survivors, while others, such as TCTSY, may be empowering and supportive.
TCTSY is the first and foremost trauma-sensitive yoga program. Our trainings combine decades of research and Evidence-Based studies and is grounded in principles of equity, intersectionality, and trauma care.
This half day training gives a taste of the TCTSY modality’s roots, applications, and most recent research findings.
Learning objectives:
- Develop an understanding of the theoretical underpinnings that inform TCTSY;
- Differentiate TCTSY from other types of yoga;
- Discover a short experiential TCTSY practice to see how it might restore a sense of safety and agency.
Research:
The history with links to additional research on TCTSY can be found on the History of TCTSY website.
Target Audience: social workers, mental health practitioners, creative arts therapists, marriage and facility therapists, psychologists, addiction professionals, medical professionals, and other interested individuals.
This program is for professional development and learning. We recognize that although many of us may have experiences of trauma the time we spend together will not be an intervention for our own individual healing. Talking and learning about trauma, even in the context of training, can be triggering.
