What is yoga therapy? 

Hello! My name is Portia Stewart, and I am a certified yoga therapist. (C-IAYT). I am currently accepting students who are exploring the benefits of yoga therapy. 

Yoga therapy leverages movement, breath work, and meditation practices to help heal the body and the mind. Yoga therapy is accessible for every body, and practice is often adapted for physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual challenges that range from conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and digestive disorders to post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, headaches, and much more. 

When you work with a yoga therapist, this professional tailors a practice to your condition and specific needs to help you improve mobility, find a more peaceful mind, enhance your lung capacity, and support your sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.
