Mindful yoga therapy for veteranS & ACTIVE MILITARY Free class!
Yoga's physical postures promote healthy, flexible bodies and often provide relief from pain and tension.
This beginner yoga class is intended for all body types. The movements are gentle enough that those with health conditions or physical limitations will find the postures comfortable and easy to do. FLEXIBILITY is NOT required!
Stress Management techniques involve quieting the mind chatter through guided imagery, brief meditations and body scan relaxation (yoga nidra). We practice grounding techniques to establish a safe place to work from, and establish a new awareness of body and breath to bring about self regulating relaxation. All ages and branches of service welcome!
From one of our participants:
"Welcome Home Vets has been providing psychological services for veterans for over three years. We have seen some miraculous results with individual and group psychotherapy, but our vets who have experienced Akhila's Yoga for Veterans have gained an extra edge in calming and centering we have not seen with any other modality. But you don't have to have PTSD to benefit; I am "hooked" on Yoga for Veterans myself, because of the calming and stress reduction I've experienced since starting. Keep up the good work, Akhila!"
