On Demand Course: Professional Yoga Skills for Working with Depression
£50.00
Reviews of yoga research indicate that there is strong evidence for yoga’s effectiveness in supporting people with depression. Given that the fundamental premise of yoga is to still and regulate the mind, this is perhaps unsurprising.
In this on-demand course, Heather Mason, an established leader in the field of yoga therapy for mental health, provides an overview of depression, explores why yoga can be an effective therapeutic approach, and outlines best practices and important precautions. The course also includes practical sessions that add essential skills to the toolkit of any yoga professional.
