Trauma take us out of our body as a protective survival mechanism. While this is a brilliant evolutionary adaptation that helps preserve life, once trauma subsides we need mechanisms and techniques to help us return to our body. The practice of TCTSY is about learning to be in our own skins, and to make choices with our bodies based on the sensations we are experiencing in the present moment.

Trauma sensitive yoga has been scientifically validated as an effective treatment for PTSD.  It is especially effective for complex trauma and treatment resistant PTSD.
