Beth and Amy talk about how small traumas and big traumas throughout all the years of our life leave their imprint on the autonomic nervous system. Beth explains that the nervous system almost has scar like residuals that cause problems later in life, impacting many other systems of the body: digestive system, immune system, cardiovascular system, endocrine system and more. Beth has recently written a book called Trauma-Aware Yoga &amp; Movement Therapeutics for Older Adults: Managing Common Conditions by Healing the Nervous System. ·     Beth talks about how “finding a sense of safety in your own body” is the key to healing and yoga therapy offers a “bottom up” approach (from the body, through the nervous system, and finally to the brain).·     Amy and Beth talk about how Beth began finding literature about the Vagus Nerve all the way back in 2004 and intuitively knew that this might be the key to healing from the inside out, both mental and physical problems.·     Beth discusses the Glymphatic System (lymph system in the brain) and how it cleans out debris, which is so necessary for mental health.·     Beth takes us through a wonderful deep head massage that we highly recommend you get on our You Tube Channel to watch, that is Optimal State with Amy Wheeler You Tube Channel.·     Then Amy and Beth talk about the Phrenic Nerve and the importance of breathing, moving the respiratory diaphragm, again leading to the bottom-up healing approach.If you would like to receive the free infographics and handouts that correspond to each episode on the Yoga Therapy Hour Podcast, please subscribe to our segmented email list. You will have the opportunity to determine the Infographic Topics that you would like to receive. When The Yoga Therapy Hour Podcast has a topic that corresponds to your choices, then you will receive an email for that week with the PDF’s for download.Topics you can choose from include: Yoga Therapy &amp; Mental HealthYoga Therapy &amp; Physical HealthSocial Justice in yoga &amp; Yoga TherapyYoga/Ayurveda ToolboxYoga &amp; Indian PhilosophyGlobal &amp; Trending Yoga Therapy TopicsClick the link below to subscribe. It takes 10 seconds total.https://amywheeler.com/subscribe Check out Amy's website Visit Amy’s training section on her website to check out the courses belowYoga therapy training courses 865-certified-yoga-therapist-program www.optimalstateyoganidra.com Contact Beth Spindler: https://www.bethspindleryogatherapy-teachtoinspire.comNew Book: Trauma-Aware Yoga &amp; Movement Therapeutics for Older Adults by Singing Dragon Publisher

Trauma, the Autonomic Nervous System & Healing with Beth Spindler, C-IAYT

Beth Spindler, a teacher since 1976, has the highest certification in yoga therapy, and shares some of her wonderful wisdom and fun, muttley and varied tools for fear relief with Shira. She's also written Yoga Therapy for Fear, Treating Anxiety, Depression and Rage. We talk about the benefits of integrating different yoga traditions, such as Iyengar, flow, viniyoga and power yoga. Finding the right teacher or teaching that resonates with us as we grow, and finding our own voice as a teacher, and adding things out that are off the beaten path into our toolbox. How taking yoga therapy into the home is real because you can use what's in the home, instead of buying more expensive stuff. Beth gives us buckets of practices, first starting with something she learned from the Sri Vidya Tantra, which works directly on the vagus nerve, calming the mind through physiology, instead of wresting with the indominable mind. She decribes how the vagal nerve cradles our organs and working with it is the easiest way to access relief from fear quickly. We discuss how the doshas, Vata, Kapha and Pitta, correspond to anxiety, depression and rage. And fear underlies all these as traumatic responses to stressors. Here are a few of her interesting articles;  - A Short Practice to Help During a Panic Attacks  - Screen Apnea What it is and How Breath Work can Help  Work with  Beth Spindler Work with Shira Cohen
