Required Reading: Peace From Anxiety by Hala Khouri
This unit is designed to help participants learn about trauma and how to keep private and group yoga clients safe using trauma informed practices. We will use the koshas to help us frame how trauma presents in our human experiences. Through discussion, practices*, activities, and lecture, we will explore topics like types of trauma, the polyvagal theory, trauma responses, the importance of connection, how to move and change energy in the koshas in response to trauma, and more. You will leave with resources to use with private clients or group classes to help people feel grounded and safe in their yoga experiences with you. We will reference and use some practices from the book Peace from Anxiety by Hala Khouri. It will also be helpful to have a notebook and/or computer for electronic resources.

Your homework from this class will include creating a session for an ideal client using the materials shared and discussed in the course and book. You will not record it, but share what you would do and why. More details will be provided in class. 

*Practices are not full yoga class practices but be prepared to move, breathe, and try new things.
