- increased positive embodiment,
- mindful awareness,
- self-regulation and agency,
- sensory integration,
- improved health,
- and sense of increasing wellbeing as a whole human being.
TI focuses on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where participants can reconnect with their bodies, calm their minds, and build resilience.
- Key features of trauma-informed yoga:
- Emphasis on choice and autonomy.
- Adaptive and accessible postures.
- A focus on mindfulness and grounding techniques.
