When taught properly, yoga can be a healing and life-affirming practice for students experiencing mental illness. This book will cover the foundations of yoga psychology, therapeutic skills, the mental health crisis, and more. After reading, yoga teachers and trainees will feel confident creating a safe space for their practice.
