Improve Quality of Care with Subtle Yoga
Recent research and thousands of years of practice have found that the use of holistic body centered practice is beneficial physically and mentally. As healthcare shifts towards integrative and client centered practices like yoga, the need for trained professionals providing integrated behavioral health increases.

Yoga, an ancient health science and system, can be used in a prevention and treatment context to bring physical, mental/emotional and spiritual balance. Research shows positive effects with cancer, depression and anxiety treatment. A recent study from Boston University School of Medicine found yoga to provide a more positive effect on mood and anxiety than any other form of exercise.

The techniques taught in this training are simple, safe and have been used for centuries. Somatically-oriented processes (postures, visualizations and breathing practices) as well as meditation, ethical thinking, decision making, and lifestyle assessment and modifications will be practiced.

This groundbreaking program will qualify participating behavioral health professionals as registered RYT200 yoga teachers and offer up to 180 continuing education credits through MAHEC. Join us for three 8-day sessions: August 22-29, 2012, October 17-24, 2012, and January 23-30, 2013.
