Yoga Event (Single Day Class every Wed)

Wednesday from 5:30pm to 6:15pm at the Cedar Rapids Mott Bldg location.

“Trauma-Informed Yoga and Somatic Movement.” Trauma-informed yoga (TIY) is an evidence-based somatic practice that helps release stored trauma energy to better regulate one’s nervous system, become less reactive to triggering situations, and spend more time in your authentic self. These exercises will teach you to be more present by harnessing your own power and choice with movement, to increase vagal (parasympathetic) tone to calm an overactive and easily stimulated sympathetic nervous system that may have developed from various types of trauma (early childhood attachment and/or later traumatic experiences).
