Yoga therapy teacher training level II
Yoga therapy is the adaptation of yoga to a particular set of people—those with health problems. Although general yoga classes can often help resolve mild health problems, they may be ineffective for serious conditions. For example, coronary heart diseases, management of diabetes, hypertensive clients, obesity, and all the other common disorders, i.e., hormone imbalance, and sleeping disorders.
Yoga therapy tailors yoga to individuals, taking into account their medical condition, constitution and life situation. Despite being specialized, yoga therapy retains the basic principles and aims of yoga. Therapy yoga is based on the holistic concept and therefore includes a balanced set of practices that calm and vitalize the mind and body, as well as acting on diseased parts.
Each class has a maximum of 10 to 12 students, and this will give you the privilege of being closer to your master and applying yoga as therapy to clients. Devise long-term plans for private clients.
High quality teaching, better learning and understanding, and better connection to your consciousness and inner peace. The following are aspects of the topics that you will cover during this yoga therapy program:
- Deepen understanding of the connection between asanas and disease
- Learn to design and specify a therapy asana plan for 3 month
- Learn about the importance of mind management and staying healthy
- Learn the science and secrets of the 7 Dhatus: Shukra, Majja, Asthi, Meda, Mamsa, Rakta and Rasa
