Hi, everyone. Kelly Mahler here, occupational therapist, and I want to take the time to talk about the power of Interoception-Informed Yoga. Yoga is known by many people from all around the world. It’s an ancient, mind-body practice. There’s so many different forms of yoga and it is utilized in so many different settings from schools to therapy clinics, to formal yoga studios. Yoga is amazing because it can be adapted to meet the needs of a wide variety of learners in a wide variety of settings.
Yoga can be adapted for many different:
- ages
- learning styles
- backgrounds and so forth
Research shows that yoga clearly has a lot of benefits. One of those benefits is improving interoceptive awareness, or nurturing that interoceptive awareness, and we wanted to give some tips on how to use yoga in an interoception-informed way, so that you can get the best interoception outcomes.
