Yoga offers a holistically-oriented, cost-effective approach that complements current treatment strategies for mental health and substance use disorders. Murali Doraiswamy, MBBS, a Duke University researcher who conducted a systematic review of yoga for neuropsychiatric disorders concluded, "The search for improved treatments, including non-drug based, to meet the holistic needs of patients is of paramount importance. If the promise of yoga on mental health was found in a drug, it would be the best-selling medication worldwide."

In this module, participants will learn basic Subtle® Yoga practices (including breathing, postures, and meditation) which they can share with clients to assist in mitigating depression and anxiety. Participants will be able to identify the rationale for using holistic approaches, while learning effective Subtle® Yoga techniques to use in individual or group settings. Two hours of this module will be spent on the ethical frameworks of yoga including mindfulness, reflection on the use of one's inner self in clinical practice, interpersonal communication, and decision making. The yoga model of ethics will be compared and contrasted with various mental health professional codes of ethics.

Subtle® Yoga courses are a unique offering of holistically oriented, mind-body behavioral healthcare. You are welcome to take any Subtle® Yoga modules on an individual basis (as multiple or solo trainings) or in any order, except for the Subtle® Yoga Teacher Training for Behavioral Health Professionals: Teaching Yoga to Individuals and Groups (RYT200), which begins Spring of 2025. If you would like to attend this training, you must fulfill pre-requisites 1-4 (listed below) before attending #5 (also below), which is the full teacher training. The combined hours of the trainings listed below may qualify participants to apply for registration with the Yoga Alliance as a 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT), an accrediting organization independent of MAHEC and Subtle Yoga, should they choose to do so after completing all MAHEC courses.

If choosing to register "in-person," MAHEC offers limited on-site seating on Thursdays and Fridays, while all weekend sessions run via livestream, with direct connection to instructors.
