Sensory-enhanced yoga for self-regulation and trauma healing

Register by Tuesday, October 30, 2018 at 11: 00 AM ET.

Presenter: Marika Paquin

This webinar will focus on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) including major symptoms and what goes wrong with the stress response to cause these symptoms. They will also describe the inverse relationship between brain changes that occur in response to PTSD and in response to mindfulness-based practices, using the evidence of neuroimaging studies. The Iraq Yoga Study, which incorporated sensory-enhanced yoga techniques into a yoga treatment protocol used with active duty U.S. military personnel, will then be described.  The implications for treatment will be discussed within the context of a Transdisciplinary Model for Post-Traumatic Growth.

After taking part in this webinar, participants will:

  1. Understand how PTSD affects sensory processing and specific brain functions.
  2. Understand why yoga is considered by some experts to be one of the best adjunct treatments for PTSD, along with the supporting evidence.
  3. Study details of the Iraq Yoga Study, and the treatment implications, presented as the Transdisciplinary Model for Post-Traumatic Growth.
