Join us for our November Webinar! Dear John, 2020 has been an incredibly difficult year for all of us and especially those who are seniors, in view of the pandemic and the lockdowns. Many of us have experienced this pandemic as a traumatic event, and this is going to be the focus of our upcoming program. November is Alzheimer’s Awareness month and we are offering a new webinar to help us better understand how trauma affects the brain with a special focus on how we can improve the traumatic symptoms we may be experiencing. In honor of Veteran's Day and Alzheimer's Awareness Month, please join us for another outstanding educational webinar on Wednesday, November 11th. Trauma, Yoga and Your Brain Webinar Wednesday, November 11th 4 pm PT / 7 pm ET for 90 min Guest Speaker: Heather Hagaman, M.A., C-IAYT, CSAC-T Host: Kirti Khalsa, ARPF CEO We know from research that even as we age, our brain still forms new neurons and that through neuroplasticity our brains can be rewired. Current studies looking at how healthy habits strengthen your brain health have shown that yoga decreases the stress response within the brain and boosts brain power. In the trauma context, that is called self-regulation. In this 1.5 hour webinar, we will discuss how trauma manifests in the body, trauma-derived habits, and how to approach clients using specific trauma-yoga approaches. We will also experience simple and effective techniques that you can then apply to your practice and allow plenty of time for Q&A. Whether this information is for yourself or for your students and clients, this webinar will result in better management of reactive emotions, thinking more clearly and developing greater focus. Our guest speaker is Heather Hagaman, Yoga Therapist M.A., C-IAYT, CSAC-T. Heather is a pioneer in the new field of Yoga and Trauma Recovery. This new field utilizes Trauma Informed Yoga and Meditation to help people start to move beyond complex PTSD, Developmental Trauma Disorder, Addiction, Anxiety and Depression, and start to build fulfilling lives.
