This is a challenging time for anyone with a working brain and an open heart.

What do we do when faced with the current onslaught of news, events, social media, confected noise? When the world is asking us constantly to do more, be more, have more - all at a time when many have less than nothing?

This is when real Yoga is needed. Not in a studio, not in an online class, not in lycra. But in our hearts.

Excuse this post, which doesn't fit IG algorithms to get more likes and sell more stuff. But in my patients, students & clients I see nervous systems frazzled by the 2020s. And frazzled nervous systems lead to poor health.

For some, it's easy to ignore the news. For others, a frustrating challenge of wanting to care and yet, being unable to influence events.

Sometimes it is worth remembering we're just a speck in time. These statues are 000s of years old - our ancestors also wrestled with the same challenges.

So, how do we navigate these times?

Back-to-basics:
- breathe 🫁
- spend time in nature 🌳
- give thanks 🙏🏾
- help others ✋️
- hold your loved ones close 🤗
- enjoy the moments we have ❤️
- see the miracles all around us, every day 🕉

What miracle have you witnessed today? 👇🏾

Do you sometimes wonder if your classes are safe for all your students or worry your own yoga practice might inadvertently be causing harm?

Would you benefit from revising the most common injuries we may encounter?

How do you ensure that the students who attend your classes are safe to teach and would you like to feel more confident when dealing with injured students?

Join Anji Gopal for her fantastic course: Managing Injured Students in Yoga Classes: The Low Back & Hip on 21st March 2025

This CPD course will improve your knowledge of common musculoskeletal conditions seen in the Yoga studio, in the low back and hip, improve how you interact with injured students and make you a safer yogi and teacher.
Course Description

Yoga students with injuries often show up at class and yoga is considered to be a ‘healing’ practice, yet many teachers don’t feel confident about their knowledge of common musculoskeletal conditions, or how to deal with injured students.

This short course offers a flash revision of common musculoskeletal conditions seen in adults and yoga students – in the low back and hip.

It will improve your confidence in dealing with injured students – what questions to ask, how to ask them, what modifications to consider and which postures to avoid. We will explore when to modify, when to avoid and when to refer on.

We will revise which types of injury are most often seen in the yoga world
We will review the necessary skills to feel more confident in incorporating students with injuries into general classes
We will explore our boundaries of competence as yoga teachers and learn how to feel safe in accepting new students into general classes
We will advance our skills in providing modifications
We will learn how to improve safety for students attending yoga classes
The knowledge learnt on this course will be immediately applicable to teach
