SUMMARY:Your Brain Matters(TM) Yoga Program
DESCRIPTION:  \nYour Brain Matters(TM) Yoga program offers therapeutic movement and meditation to support people who have been affected by Traumatic Brain Injury. A traumatic brain injury is defined as being caused by a blow or impact to the head that results in disturbances of the brain’s function. Each TBI is unique\, and presents differently depending on many factors such as the area of the brain the injury occurred\, the severity\, and the person’sage. \nTBI’s can cause a variety of symptoms\, often because these symptoms are not visible to an observer\, a TBI can also be labelled an “invisible injury”. People who have experienced a TBI can feel frustrated\, or misunderstood because how they feel is very real. Your Brain Matters yoga offers a space for those who have experienced a TBI and tailors the yoga class to cater to some of these symptoms\, such as : \n– Noise/Light Sensitivity\n– Balance or Vestibular issues\n– Dizziness\n– Muscle Tension/Neck Injury\nThis program is a 6 week program offering one 90 minute class per week. Classes focus on\n– Themes that promote COMPASSION to oneself\, and others\n– Fostering RESILIENCE through a yoga and meditation practice\n– Launching a sense of EMPOWERMENT to adapt positively to lifestyle changes\n– Creating a sense of COMMUNITY for those affected by TBI through facilitated group\ndiscussions \nWhy Attend Your Brain Matters Yoga’s 6 Week Program? \nResearch has shown that yoga and meditation have many healing benefits for TBI\, and can change the function\, as well as structure of the brain. Through research\, evidence has shown that consistent practice of yoga and meditation can enhance Strength\, Flexibility\, Balance and Endurance. People recovering from a traumatic brain injury find it difficult to return to the sports\, or physical activities they used to perform. Yoga can offer a form of physical exercise\, leading to positive benefits for the brain and the body. \n– Reduce Stress and Anxiety\n– Boost Attention Skills\n– Improve Memory\n– Lower Mental Fatigue\n– Increase Self Esteem\n– Augment Community Integration \nYOU ARE NOT ALONE IN HOW YOU FEEL. \nMany others who have experienced TBI have been silently suffering and feeling just like you.

The reassurance of finding someone who shares similar experiences can bring positivity during your recovery. \nThis program will be held at: Bethany Lee Yoga and Wellness studio.
