Ep #23 | Brain on Yoga, Neurodiversity, and Your EIGHT Senses
Description
Recently, I had the privilege of participating in an incredibly informative training with the Soul of Yoga for my Yoga Therapist Certification. This training taught us all about brain development and regulating our nervous system through yoga. Part of the training was led by Yoga Therapist, Shawnee Thornton Hardy. Shawnee is the author of Yoga Therapy for Children and Teens with Complex Needs and the founder of Asanas for Autism and Special Needs. Throughout this training, I learned SO much about the autism spectrum and sensory processing challenges. In this episode, I share with you the challenges these children and adults may have with their ability to navigate the world with ease and comfort. I also provide ways to start feeling embodied and safe again through yoga practices such as breathwork, meditation, visualization, and asanas.
I hope that this episode opens all of our eyes and brings more awareness to what all children need from their caregivers to co-regulate and how we all have the ability to self-regulate and heal ourselves and our nervous systems through yoga.
