Inner Phoenix Yoga Videos
Welcome to Inner Phoenix, a series of short, trauma-informed yoga practice videos using gentle techniques for all skill levels
Yoga unifies the mind and body (as trauma creates a split between mind and body).
- Yoga helps control emotions by:
- Connecting with breath
- Increasing body awareness
- Being present
- Yoga helps balance the nervous system to reduce the fight, flight or freeze
response - Yoga helps improve mood by increasing endorphins in the brain; anxiety and depression may decrease
