What is Neurogenic Yoga™?

Neurogenic Yoga™ is a revolutionary technique to heal trauma and reduce stress. It combines yoga poses (asana) and breathing (pranayama) with the body’s body’s natural therapeutic shaking response. The human (and animal) nervous system has an instinctual shaking response that is genetically coded to help us discharge long-held tension and trauma. It is an unconscious muscle contraction that restores the body to wholeness after stressful or traumatic events.

Neurogenic Yoga™ is especially suitable for those experiencing chronic pain, daily stress & long held tension, PTSD. It is also, however, an opportunity to simply shake off the stress from your day or week as a means of maintaining healthy nervous system balance.

Description: The workshop will begin with a 45-minute introduction to Neurogenic Yoga™. This will be followed by a 75-minute class featuring meditation, breathwork, and 30 minutes of gentle movement. The class will then transition into a series of lying postures designed to safely introduce neurogenic tremoring – the body’s natural, therapeutic shaking response to release physical and emotional stress and tension. Variations will be offered to accommodate participants of all experience levels and body types.

Herbal tea will be provided at the end, accompanied by a 30-minute discussion period for participants to ask questions and share their experiences.
