Dubuque Trauma-Informed Yoga and Mindfulness Practices for Yoga Instructors (1)

This course, Trauma-Informed Yoga and Mindfulness Practices for Yoga Instructors, is designed to help yoga instructors create classes that encourage and promote resiliency, as well as physical movement, through the practices of yoga and mindfulness.

Participants will develop an understanding of the effects of trauma on one's body, brain and overall well-being.

Participants will learn how yoga/movement and mindfulness activities, as well as other strategies, can be used in a way that helps promote the building of resilience to mitigate the effects of traumatic experiences. This will be achieved through a series of discussions, physical movement, breathing exercises, games/activities, and reflections.

Participants will also reflect on their own past experiences and how that impacts the atmosphere they create for yoga students. Lastly, participants will expand their understanding of how to avoid re-traumatizing through a mindful approach of being aware of their language, environment, and their own teacher qualities.
