Йога как лекарство. Улучшаем ментальное и физическое здоровье с помощью асан и дыхательных практик

It is no secret that practicing yoga strengthens the spine, improves muscle mobility, and relaxes the body. But did you know that there are practices that can help cope with psychological traumas and attain inner peace? The author of this book, Ariel Schwartz, a yoga instructor, doctor of clinical psychology, and master of somatic psychology, has created her own methodology that combines elements of therapeutic yoga and polyvagal theory. The latter gives a voice to the ancient wisdom contained in yoga practices through the lens of modern science, asserting that human physiology is inextricably linked to mental manifestations, so by training the body, we can strengthen the psyche.
