Yoga for Trauma Recovery

Theory, Philosophy, and Practice

Yoga for Trauma Recovery outlines best practices for the growing body of professionals trained in both yoga and psychotherapy and addresses the theoretical foundations that tie the two fields. Chapters show how understanding the safe and effective integration of trauma-informed yoga and somatic psychotherapy is essential to providing informed, effective treatment.

Uniting recent developments in our understanding of neuroscience and trauma recovery with ancient tenets of yoga philosophy and practice, this foundational text is a must-listen for those interested in the healing capacities of each modality. Listeners will come away from the book with a strong sense of how to apply theory, philosophy, and research to the real-life complexities of clients and students.
