As an educator, if a student with pre-existing physical injury came to your doorstep, what will you do? Dr. Paul Jerard, E-RYT 500, Director for Teaching Yoga in Aura Wellness Center, talks about how to creatively deal with students who are suffering from forms of physical trauma and want to practice Yoga for the betterment of their physical well being. In this video, there will be a brief discussion on how to assess, not only the person, but also your capacity as a Yoga professional. You will be acquainted with how important it is to know anatomy and its significance with assessment. Also, you will realize the importance of creating a community that not only expands with Yoga enthusiasts, but also with health practitioners, social workers, police officers, and counselors in your area. Efficient collaboration is the key to a holistic approach to the trauma-sensitive. How good are you with modifications and variations of techniques to be able to help these people? This video is an eye opener, which exposes a greater practice of trauma-sensitive Yoga. Learning such expertise will expose you to greater continuing education and give you a chance to view greater horizons of life. Teaching Yoga is not only a fruitful career, but it will impose great progress in your spiritual well being. We emphasize that Yoga is not a cure; rather it is an effective tool to deal with both emotional and physical imprints from physical accidents.
