63 | Teaching Trauma Sensitive Yoga | Rose Wippich

  • Summary

  • On today's conversation, previously released on Chat off the Mat, Lara Land speaks with Rose Wippich about the profound impact trauma can have on the nervous system and how yoga can serve as a pathway to recovery. Lara guides us through the differences between trauma-sensitive yoga and traditional yoga classes. We explore how this specialized approach creates a sanctuary for students who have experienced trauma by emphasizing safety, choice, and non-judgemental exploration. Our discussion covers the spectrum of trauma responses, acknowledging that each student's healing journey is unique. Lara illuminates how trauma-sensitive practices such as gentle asana, breathwork, and tristana can facilitate reconnection with the body and a sense of empowerment. Lara is a deeply compassionate yoga teacher trainer, author, and trauma-sensitivity coach. She is the Executive Director of Three and a Half Acres Yoga, a nonprofit whose mission is to broaden access to yoga, breathing, and mindfulness techniques focusing on communities who have experienced trauma. Three and a Half Acres Yoga offers trainings for yoga teachers who want to create safer classes for their students. Their next trauma-informed virtual training is being held September 27th-29th. Lara also travels to yoga studios nationwide to train yoga teachers in trauma sensitivity. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with Lara! www.laraland.us Instagram.
