Trauma Sensitive Yoga

This is not for everyone. If you have experienced a traumatic event or am looking for way to calm your mind and regain safety in your body, this gentle and respectful practice might be for you.

Trauma Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) is developed at the Trauma Centre at the Justice Resource Institute in the US by David Emerson and David Emerson and trauma expert, Dr Bessel van der Kolk, and the programs are solidly based in trauma, attachment theory, neuroscience, and yoga. Centered in practices of invitation, choice, and mindful body awareness (interoception), Trauma Sensitive Yoga can help people who are living with trauma to release tension, strengthen their sense of self by learning to tolerate physical sensations. Interoception, is directly correlated to how well we can regulate our emotions, and hence our subsequent susceptibility to mental health problems such as anxiety and depression.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND TCTSY : According to research, yoga has greater beneficial effects in alleviating traumatic stress symptoms as the best possible medications. One study with a group of women who had suffered domestic violence, and were exposed to a 12-week trauma sensitive yoga course of one class a week, showed a reduction in severity of PTSD symptoms and frequency of dissociative symptoms, and gains in vitality and body attunement.
