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.
