In easy-to-understand language, this program will include satsang lectures that review some of the basic science underlying the psychophysiology of yoga practices and describe some of the cutting edge biomedical research studies with relevance to yoga, including research on psychology, physiology, molecular biology and brain imaging. A model summarizing all of the physical, mental, and spiritual mechanisms of action will provide a modern scientific overview of how yoga works.The experience of trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have been recognized as debilitating conditions with an unfortunately high prevalence in modern society. There is now a growing implementation of trauma sensitive yoga for the treatment of trauma and PTSD. We will review the scientific rationale for multicomponent traditional yoga practices including postures/exercises, breath regulation, relaxation and meditation/mindfulness techniques for treating trauma and PTSD. We will also review the research literature on the published clinical trials using yoga as a therapeutic intervention. Yoga practice workshops will include Yoga practices sessions believed to be specifically useful for elevating wellbeing and for managing trauma.
