"Witnessing Beauty" 200-Hour Trauma-Informed Yoga Teacher Training for Post-Traumatic Growth
"witnessing beauty in the process, fostering growth through presence"
We Start by Integrating and Growing the Foundations of Connection through Meaning, Purpose, and Belonging.
Meaning
Purpose
Belonging
We Begin To Integrate Invitational Curiosity & Choice, Both Of Which Help Foster Learning & Growth.
To Learn, One Needs To Have Permission to Explore
Through exploration, the senses are engaged, and vulnerability reveals agency.
For Growth to Happen, One Must Feel Connected
To feel connected, one needs to feel safe, be seen, and be heard.
Agency Inspires Curiosity, and Curiosity Fosters Right Order and Organic Growth
This is the process of witnessing beauty in transformation and growth through Sakala.
Within the practices and teachings, we merge awareness of the Five elements of Life to Help Create accountability & Create Change.
