About Essential Yoga Therapy heyam dukham anagatam – Future suffering is to be avoided Essential Yoga Therapy has two distinct missions: One, to offer Client Based Yoga Therapy; the other to help yoga teachers in developing skills in the arena of yoga cikitsa or yoga therapy. The spring board for developing these programs arises from the same fundamental teaching of yoga: That we bear responsibility for reducing suffering in ourselves - and from there we are to assist in healing others; and that yoga offers an intelligently laid out path to achieve both of those goals. CLIENT BASED YOGA THERAPY: Robin Rothenberg draws deeply from the authentic lineages of yoga, while also incorporating contemporary understanding of body and mind, the results of years of study in western science and medicine. She acts as an educator or bridge between these two seemingly disparate worlds, facilitating clients in achieving a new awareness of their condition, helping them break free of habits that are debilitating, and develop a clear plan of action (often referred to as a personal practice) to help themselves find equilibrium and greater health. See Customized Yoga Therapy for more on group or individual yoga therapy sessions. Therapeutic Yoga with Robin has been a great help to me. Within the first two sessions she was able to give me recommendations about muscle cramps that has made a huge difference for me. I am also learning to adapt and relax instead of trying to fix my body. I would recommend this class to anyone with stiffness or tightness in their body. - Bob H. THERAPEUTIC TRAINING FOR TEACHERS: |
