Episode #39: Talk Yoga™ and Autism (and other special populations)

Join us, Amy and Kim as we discuss how Talk Yoga™ can be utilized with autistic individuals.  We are often asked if Talk Yoga™ has been successfully implemented with our autistic clients, and the answer is yes!  We will discuss how yoga “redirects” the functioning of the frontal lobe, which is often affected in autism, and in other populations such as those with ADHD.  We refer to an article published in the International Journal of Yoga Therapy, which examines the uses of a yoga program with autistic children and the benefits they discovered.  You can find the article here: https://www.peacefulpathwaysyoga.com/pdfs/Yoga-Research-Integrated-Movement-Therapy.pdf. Enjoy!
