Yoga Therapy
Yoga Therapy applies the self-realization practices of Yoga. The tradition of yoga offers methods to alleviate suffering in the quest for harmony of body, energy, mind, intellect, and spirit. Yoga Therapy is a process of evolution, as clients' awareness may only approach and benefit from the next steps in consciousness awaking. Ancient healing methods are based on creating balance. The comprehensive lifestyle approach of Yoga revitalizes these methods to include the physical, psychological, mental, and spiritual. These widespread lifestyle factors include practices for relationships, attitudes towards work, relaxation, meditation, personally meaningful spiritual aspects, as appropriate for the clients' personal belief systems.
Yoga Therapy educates and empowers clients to make clinically-proven healthful choices about work, nutrition, rest, relationships, movement, and thoughts. Yoga supports the entire person: body, energy, senses, intellect, and spirit. Comprehensive Yoga Therapy (CYT) practices include movements, breathing exercises, mental techniques, lifestyle education, and personal growth philosophy. These practices help bring physical and psychological processes into balance.
