Somatic YogaĀ Therapy

Certification

Somatic Yoga & Expressive Healing Arts dives into the foundation of all Yoga Practices and Philosophy which are firmly grounded in the 5 elements and the human relationship between ourselves and the universe. 

In this course, you will learn how to practice and lead certain meditation techniques that naturally evoke altered states without any herbs or medicine.   Through these experiences, you will cultivate a deeper understanding of all the dimensions of the human experience itself. 

This course introduces the exclusive Purusha Method which takes the individual through a 5 step process from deep exploration to thriving. 

The Purusha Method of Yoga Therapy includes mind, body, energy, witnessing and spiritual being.  The 5 kosha layers of classic yoga include somatic experiencing which is the connection of mind and body but also goes beyond the mind and body and deep into the more subtle fields of energy, intellect, imagination, creative expression, and connection to truth being.  

 In this course, you will be introduced to the parts of the Purusha Yoga Therapy scope of practice that call on the classic shamanic, creative and authentic practice as a means of personal discovery, healing, and ultimate freedom to thrive on one's unique life path.  

Purusha Yoga Expressive  Healing Arts include learning a variety of specific Guided Journeys, Art Prompts, Authentic Movement Scores, and Journaling.
