Listen Later

On today’s episode I talk with Danielle Begg. Danielle is the founder and CEO of ‘The Yoga Impact Charity’ which provides yoga at no cost to people of all ages who have suffered from trauma. Danielle has been working with refugees since 2014 by providing them with access to evidence based trauma informed yoga. Danielle also runs training programs for yoga teachers in Trauma Informed Yoga, and I feel super lucky that this year we have Danielle providing a trauma informed module in our 200 HR Hatha Foundations Training that starts starts in March. 

Danielle and I talk about: 

  • Why all yoga teachers need to understand trauma informed yoga
  • The physiology of trauma
  • How we, as well intentioned teachers may be unknowingly triggering our students
  • How you can make a general class more trauma aware
  • Danielle's favorite resources for exploring trauma in the body
