About Yoga Therapy
Yoga therapy is part of complementary therapies under a holistic approach. Yoga enables individuals to develop healthy practices that promote mental wellness, balance, and the ability to center oneself and stay present in the moment. Yoga is a beneficial exercise for anyone looking to enhance their spiritual and emotional development.
Yoga fulfills many goals of treatment. Through this physical activity you gain stronger recovery, maintain that recovery more easily and enhance your lifestyle in sobriety. The holistic approach means it brings whole-person wellness. In essence, yoga helps you heal and stay healthy from head to toe.
Complementary therapies like yoga provide natural support for your medical treatments. You cannot substitute yoga for rehab or medical care. But together, yoga and medicine work exceptionally well together. Each method fills the voids in the other.
Mind-Body Connection for Substance Abuse Treatment
Yoga therapy includes the use of yoga poses for the connection of your body, mind, and spirit. Yoga uses your breath to help you understand your body and gain self-awareness in all areas of your life. In yoga, you focus your attention on your inner self. About 21 million Americans actively practice yoga, from the very youngest children to the oldest adults, as anyone can safely do it.
Benefits of yoga include:
- Relieves stress and pain
- Improves physical energy, strength, and sleep
- Increases self-confidence, self-awareness, and self-reflection
- Encourages healthier eating, exercise, and lifestyle
- Reduces fatigue
- Heals your emotions
- Gives you overall health and wellness benefit
Yoga therapy helps balance your brain and body. This balance occurs naturally, along with physical and emotional benefits. You become attuned to your body, listen to your innermost needs and learn breath regulation. Together, all of these benefits create better self-awareness and inner peace.
One of the most prominent keywords for describing yoga is a balance. Through yoga, you gain a balance you have not felt for a very long time. You gain control over your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Yoga also gives you a means of dealing with your cravings, instead of falling into relapse.
Instead of competing with other spiritual aspects of addiction programs, such as 12 step programs, yoga works with these for a more significant benefit. Through mindful meditation and deep breathing, you gain a deeper connection to your spirituality in recovery. You more easily find inner peace, attain self-reflection and understand what you need for secure, lasting recovery.
