Yoga for Addiction Recovery

Yoga for Addiction Recovery



This class is designed for anyone
who counsels people suffering from addiction, as well as for anyone working
through an addiction of their own. Emerging evidence suggests that combining
yoga with traditional twelve-step treatment programs may increase recovery
rates. In this class, you’ll learn how yoga can be a powerful ally in breaking
addiction’s grip, enabling addicts to replace destructive habits with ones that
replenish the body and spirit. We’ll explore the breath techniques and physical
postures that quiet the mind, reduce anxiety, increase endorphins, and foster a
sense of well-being.
