Yoga for Good Foundation. https://yogaforgood.com.au/

I am very grateful to the Yoga for Good Foundation for support in facilitating Yoga for Trauma sessions for Afghani women in Shepparton.
The majority of the women have never had the opportunity to practice yoga. 80-90% of the women have non-specific back pain and other physical symptoms related to trauma from their traumatic life experiences. Challenges with speaking English also places the women at risk of social isolation and limited access to wellbeing activities in the community.
The Yoga for Good grant enabled me to work with the Afghani women, finding a safe appropriate space and to engage an amazing Afghani translator (shout out to Shakilla) to facilitate and navigate the sessions.
The Yoga for Trauma sessions offered a safe inclusive space for gentle body movement, mind and body connection and relaxation. There was also space for fun and laughter with positive influences on physical and mental health and wellbeing.
I am certainly hoping for more opportunities to facilitate yoga in this space. Yoga should be accessible for everyone!

Sometimes trauma can seem heavy & unrelenting but a hopeful reminder that our bodies can heal & bring in joy & lightness 💕🌸💕. Movement, including gentle yoga is great for shifting ’stuck’ emotions & inviting peace , calm & hope back in.

Rest & stillness are vital in supporting you to feel balanced, calm & regulated.

Yoga is great for helping us be in the present moment, focusing on the now & quietening the mind.
