SUMMARY:8-Week Yoga Therapy Course for Mental Health\; Stress\, Anxiety and
  Depression
DESCRIPTION:Developed by 'The Minded Institute'\, this 8-week yoga therapy 
 course\, is a comprehensive and evidence-based program for anyone looking 
 to better manage stress\, anxiety and/or depression\, on a day-to-day basi
 s.\n\nThis course is being led by our yoga therapist\, Sammie Mason.\n​\
 nBoth mindfulness and therapeutic yoga are well known for their mental hea
 lth benefits\, reducing anxiety\, depression and negative affect\, this c
 ourse will help you access these profound healing properties. Combining sp
 ecific yoga therapy techniques\, with research from the fields of psychot
 herapy and neuroscience\, it will provide you with a tool box of self-reg
 ulation techniques that you can use on a daily basis to better manage and 
 help to improve your mental health both on a short-term and life long bas
 is.\n​Course structure\nWe meet once a week for two hours over an 8-week
  period. Each week has a theme which is explained and explored through pra
 ctice. This includes a 1 hour and 10 minute yoga practice\, breath work\, 
 mindfulness\, meditation\, relaxation self-inquiry and discussion. During 
 the first two weeks of the course\, we focus on regulating breath as a mod
 e to alter the functioning of your nervous system so that you can manage s
 tress with greater ease.\n\nFrom weeks 3 – 5 we concentrate on the relat
 ionship between body and mood and in weeks 6 – 8 we focus specifically o
 n\nthe mind.\n\nAs with most things the best results come with practice. E
 ach week you will be given a home practice which you will be supported and
  encouraged to do\, encouraging the positive change that you wish to see.\
 n​\nTo support your practice the course also provides:\n\n 	A comprehens
 ive course manual with detailed explanations of mind body connection\, res
 earch and practice descriptions\,\n 	Audio recordings of practices taught\

 estions or queries.\n\n​How is this course different from other courses 
 for emotional healing?\nUsually courses will focus on just the mind and/or
  just the body as a way to enhance mental well-being. The 8-week yoga the
 rapy course works on the understanding that the most effective way to enco
 urage long-term transformation is by focusing on the entire person\, body
  and mind.\nIs this course for me?\nThis course is open to anyone who wish
