Modern science and psychology are now beginning to appreciate the importance of body/mind approaches in the treatment of trauma and depression.  In Healing from Trauma and Depression through Yoga & Mindfulness, Heather Mason and Dana Moore will explore the therapeutic role somatic and awareness practices can have on emotional healing.  This workshop will offer an opportunity for experiential learning combined with insight into groundbreaking theory around trauma and depression and their treatment.  Using a combination of yoga, break-work, mindfulness and movement, Dana and Heather will guide you through practices specifically designed to work with both the mental and physiological aspects of trauma and depression.
