  • Yoga & Movement

Integrate Hakomi with mindfulness and yoga for powerful transformation. Yoga practitioners and teachers will learn how to work with emotions in the practice. Therapists will discover ways to access the wisdom of the body for healing. 
 
Psoma yoga therapy is an integrated approach to yoga therapy based on the yoga sutras of Patanjali, pranayama, and mindfulness practice including mindfulness-based asana and applied mindfulness: the Hakomi Way (body-centered psychotherapy). This is an approach to body/mind/spirit healing which understands healing as the unfolding of wholeness, or wholeness happening. Renew your yoga, meditation or therapy practice in this hands-on instruction in the psoma yoga approach to emotional healing.
 
This seven day training is aimed at yoga teachers and practitioners who aspire to teach, as well as therapists who have a yoga practice and who would like to learn a way to incorporate a mindfulness-based mind/body/spirit approach with other methods. Receive hands-on instruction, guidance, and practice in the psoma yoga approach, in how to teach psoma yoga to groups, including multi-level groups and people with health issues, along with a combined yoga and Hakomi approach to emotional healing. This will be taught experientially with opportunities for personal work as well as to participate in supporting others.
Participants will receive the psoma yoga instruction manual, and a certificate of completion in psoma yoga therapy.
