Publisher's Synopsis
In this book and card deck bundle, Zahabiyah A. Yamasaki, founder of Transcending Sexual Trauma through Yoga, draws on the framework of trauma-informed care and trauma-informed yoga program development and curriculum, while also weaving in personal narrative and inspiring survivor stories.
Trauma-Informed Yoga for Survivors of Sexual Assault: Practices for Healing and Teaching with Compassion explores practical considerations for survivors, as well as mental health professionals, yoga teachers, and other healing professionals who are interested in integrating trauma-informed yoga into the scope of their work and/or healing. It provides a comprehensive overview of how to offer yoga to survivors of sexual assault in a safe, effective, evidence-based, and healing way.
A powerful companion to the book as well as a stand-alone resource, the Trauma-Informed Yoga Affirmations Card Deck's beautiful, unique full-color art by Evelyn Rosario Andry illustrates poses and Zahabiyah's affirmations on each card, ideal for sharing with survivors in one-on-one or group clinical practice, yoga classes, or workshops. The cards are also essential for inspiration outside of a yoga or clinical setting.
