Trauma-Informed Yoga and Meditation for Sexual Assault Survivors
A Professional Training in Trauma-Informed Care
A Holistic Training in Supporting Sexual Trauma Survivors
We created this 36 page guide to offer healing professionals a practical and broad overview of the concepts, resources, and practices that create a more accessible healing space for survivors of sexual trauma, while also bolstering professionals in their vocation.
Co-authored by 8 trauma-informed yoga teachers, this 70 page guide is designed for healing professionals and trauma survivors to explore the profound ways in which yoga can support trauma healing. The toolkit combines both survivors' perspectives as to the risks and rewards of yoga as told to us in our research study, Alternative Therapies for Survivors of Sexual Assault, with the insights teachers offered regarding best practices to increase safety and connection in yoga.
