Five 2-Hour Weekly Webinar Sessions; $195 Regular Tuition/$165 Early Bird (until August 19)

Our 5-week, 10-hour Webinar Series for occupational therapists, licensed counselors, certified yoga therapists, and other health professionals presents the science and theory behind Sensory-Enhanced Yoga® and how and why it can be especially effective for addressing symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, mixed anxiety/depression, and related mental health conditions.  The information can be applied both “on and off the mat” and presents an evidence-based roadmap for healing these conditions.  No yoga experience is necessary.  Please note:  This webinar series includes several experiential activities but is mostly lecture and discussion.  It provides a solid scientific and theoretical grounding for the chair and mat practices that are presented in the 16-hour workshops. This is not a prerequisite for the 16-hour workshop; rather, it presents a quarter of that content and expands on it.)
