Yoga Therapy is that facet of the ancient science of Yoga that focuses on health and wellness at all levels of the person~physical, psychological, and spiritual

Yoga Therapy focuses on the path of yoga as a healing journey that brings balance to the body and mind through an experiential understanding of the primary intention of yoga: Awakening of Spirit, which is our essential nature. Yoga Therapy addresses the larger questions of the meaning of life and the role of health and healing within it.

• The healing journey is unique to each individual.  Yoga Therapy selects, adapts and modifies the practices of yoga appropriately for the individual with respect to age, culture, religion, and specific physical challenges and conditions to facilitate optimal health and healing of the body/mind.

• The Yoga therapy process begins with a thorough description of the student’s present status at physical, psychological and spiritual levels. It takes into consideration the student’s Ayurvedic constitution, specific areas of physical and psychological strength and weakness, the role of stress and areas of separation in the life of the student. It then looks at which facets of yoga would facilitate optimal wellness and finally designs a program of yoga practice to meet the needs and goals of the student.
