Yoga as behaviour change: There are stories in your fascia.
I realised I can’t give up facilitating yoga, when you dig deep into what yoga has to teach you, it’s more than movement & physical activity- it is a behaviour change approach too. Having studied yoga and movement philosophy & psychology in India & Nepal, I now apply behaviour change psychology as a registered Psychologist with the British Psychological Society into Yoga and Yoga into Systems Evaluation and Learning.
Yoga is behaviour change. Behaviour Change is Identity Change.
In fact, there are eight limbs in the realm of yoga, as described in many ancient yoga texts, that come down to three general categories; meditation, ethics, and healthy living. But, the science is catching up and evidence shows mindful physical activity can:
reduce stress
relieve anxiety
help manage depression
decrease lower back pain
improve quality of life in those with chronic conditions or acute illnesses
stimulate brain function
Learning more about yoga psychology and its integration into our life is my speciality - from teacher training to online courses it’s my passion to pass this knowledge on to you.
Such a learning experience, thoroughly enjoyed the course, even though it was a lot tougher than I had anticipated. So glad I decided to do it.
