Yoga for Sleep and Insomnia
Yoga offers gentle, evidence-based tools for improving sleep and easing insomnia. By calming the nervous system, releasing tension, and quieting racing thoughts, yoga helps the body shift naturally into rest. Practices like restorative poses, breathwork, mindfulness, and Yoga Nidra reduce hyperarousal and retrain healthy sleep patterns. With consistency, yoga supports deeper rest, emotional balance, and waking with more clarity and resilience.
What to Expect in a Private Session
A private session offers a safe, supportive space for healing tailored to your needs. Each session begins with a consultation to set intentions, followed by grounding practices like breathwork or mindfulness. From there, we may integrate yoga therapy, restorative postures, sound healing, or reflective activities to support physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Sessions close with reflection and rest, helping you carry calm, balance, and resilience into daily life.
Yoga Therapy vs. Regular Yoga: What’s the Difference?
Yoga and yoga therapy share roots but serve different purposes. A regular yoga class focuses on group practice for fitness, stress relief, and general well-being. Yoga therapy, on the other hand, is highly individualized, using postures, breathwork, and mindfulness to address specific health concerns like chronic pain, anxiety, or trauma. By integrating with healthcare, yoga therapy provides tailored support for healing and long-term balance.
What Is Yoga Therapy And How Is It Different from Yoga?
Yoga therapy is a personalized, evidence-informed approach that adapts yoga practices—like movement, breathwork, and meditation—to support specific health needs. Unlike general yoga classes, it involves assessment and tailored practices within a therapeutic relationship. Research shows yoga therapy can ease stress, anxiety, depression, and PTSD, while also improving mobility, posture, strength, and pain management.
