There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than

anything that bleeds.

The combination of counseling, yoga and meditation together is more affective than just the traditional approach for treatment.

History of Yoga Since 1970 meditation and other stress-

reduction techniques have been studied for treatments of depression and anxiety.

The practice of yoga has increased in recent decades

Because I researched depression and its different treatment affects ,I decided to learn

and teach yoga for my product.

Challenges Successes

Learning yoga and becoming more flexible was very difficult. If I had the chance to do it again I’d practice more at home.

Getting to teach at the center was really easy all I had to do was make the phone call, speak to the manager, and they were fine with me coming in.

The people enjoyed me instructing them and the information I was able to share.

What I learned I learned that Yoga is really relaxing and

calming. I had days were I would go to class stressed and yoga would make me feel better.

It is not like any other physical activities because there is no competition.

Everyone is working at there own pace.

Thank you for your time.
