PTSD

For many of us, the relationship we have with our bodies is a quiet battle waged daily. From a young age, we are immersed in a culture that teaches us to suppress, to control, and to mistrust the very vessel that carries us through life. Yoga offers a powerful way to end this silent war—not by "fixing" or changing the body, but by creating the conditions to reconnect with it, rebuild trust, and find a true sense of home within oneself.

Yoga is a sophisticated, evidence-based system for working directly with our own neurobiology to heal past wounds and build lasting resilience. The practices of yoga teach us that healing is not just about thinking or talking our way through our problems; it is about feeling and embodying a new way of being.

Prolonged Exposure Therapy: This guide is designed for those considering Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy. Its purpose is to demystify the process, explain the principles behind why it works so effectively, and provide a clear picture of what you can expect on your journey to recovery.

Complex PTSD (C-PTSD) stems from prolonged trauma, often in childhood, where safety and love were inconsistent. Unlike single-event PTSD, it disrupts emotional development and relationships, leading to shame, fear of abandonment, and difficulty trusting others. Survivors may struggle with emotional instability, hypervigilance, or dissociation. Healing is possible through trauma-informed therapy and supportive, safe relationships that help rebuild trust and self-worth.
