If you struggle with the effects of trauma, you aren’t alone. SAMHSA recently reported that over 61% of men and 51% of women had experienced some form of trauma in their lifetime. Moreover, over 90% of people who are receiving care from a public behavioral health care organization struggle with trauma. Fortunately, yoga therapy is one treatment option that can reduce your anxiety and improve your mental health, according to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health. Learn more about yoga and trauma healing at Red Oak Recovery’s young male addiction treatment program today.

What Do Experts Say About the Link Between Yoga and Trauma Healing?

“Regulated breathing, for example, calms the parasympathetic nervous system. Practicing staying in the moment counteracts some of the dissociative effects of trauma. And the physical activity of yoga, of course, can directly improve health,” reported NPR.

Yoga for victims of trauma includes modifications. For example, instructors always ask permission before adjusting a pose. This is particularly helpful for victims of sexual abuse. “Being asked to be touched, it gave us a little power back in a place where all our power is taken,” study participant Missy Hart told NPR.

Yoga also helped by offering choices: “You can sit and reflect and think about what you want to think about. It helped us feel normal,” she said.

Other Benefits of Yoga

According to the report, other benefits of yoga for people with trauma include:

  • Better self-regulation
  • Increased self-esteem
  • Improved sleep
  • Reduction in gastric symptoms

Yoga for Addiction Recovery

Whether or not you have a history of trauma, this ancient practice can be a smart tool in your addiction recovery. It will help you align the mind, body, and spirit so you can find inner peace and comfort. Some more advantages of participating in yoga therapy during an addiction treatment program include:

  • Reduced stress and anxiety
  • Redirecting harmful and negative thoughts
  • Identifying cravings
  • Clearing mental fog
  • Experiencing a sense of community
