Listen Later

Episode Summary:

In this episode of Yoga Beyond the Spectrum, we dive deep into the connection between trauma and neurodivergence, and why it’s crucial to understand both when creating healing spaces. Many neurodivergent individuals experience trauma differently, and often more intensely, than what’s typically recognized in mainstream care.

You’ll walk away with compassionate insight and tangible tools to better support yourself or the neurodivergent individuals in your life, whether you’re a parent, therapist, educator, or someone navigating your own journey.

What You’ll Learn:

• The overlap between trauma symptoms and neurodivergent traits

• Why neurodivergent individuals may be more vulnerable to trauma

• The importance of trauma-informed, sensory-aware wellness practices

• Practical ways to create affirming and supportive environments

• How yoga and somatic tools can support regulation and healing

• The importance of honoring lived experience in both trauma and neurodivergence
