Trauma Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga
Trauma Centre Trauma-Sensitive Yoga works in conjunction with conventional clinical therapies to support healing by gently assisting survivors to reconnect with their bodies in a safe supportive environment. This unique yoga therapy supports the body to feel safe, strong and comfortable and teaches people how to recognise and modulate arousal that is felt in the body. TC-TSY brings the body into treatment complementing conventional talk therapies and can support healing and recovery by:
Soothing the bodies alarm system
Learning ways to calm down and self regulate
Presenting opportunities for present moment experiences and cultivating positive emotions
Increasing spatial awareness and body attunement
Practicing making choices and presenting opportunities to take effective action
Reduce activation of the sympathetic nervous system, muscle tension and blood pressure.
This is a 6 week group program and is designed to support participants who are engaged in therapy currently.
