Healing yoga is a term that is used to describe the therapeutic aspect of a yoga practice. For centuries, yoga has been used as a form of therapy—to help with various physical, emotional, and mental conditions. More an more studies are showing the benefits of yoga.
Healing yoga places emphasis upon both the physical body, and the subtle, energetic anatomy. As we learn to work more consciously with our breath and vital life energy, we are able to facilitate healing from deep within.
Healing yoga can involve a number of different practices, and encompass many different techniques. But each of them will have as their aim some form of healing on the physical, energetic, or mental level.
More and more, yoga is being introduced into various integrative centers, as a complementary therapy to modern medicine and psychotherapy.

• Be curious. Take note of how you feel not only during the practice, but after.
