Presenter: Amy Wheeler, Ph.D. Professor of Kinesiology at California State University, Yoga Teacher and Yoga Therapist in the Tradition of T. Krishnamacharya.

Yoga has a different approach than many types of western psychology when it comes to healing PTSD. In the yogic approach, we feel that the old memories and feelings causing the PTSD must be replaced by new thoughts and experiences to promote health and healing. The yogic tools include deep relaxation techniques for mind, gentle breath based movement patterns, followed by bhavana (or visualization) and meditations that cultivate the opposite thoughts and feelings one experiences in PTSD.

Step 2 is higher intensity, as well as more challenging choreography than Step 1. Prior experience in Step 1 is recommended, but not required for Step 2.

These cores have been established to work together to assist researchers in experimental design and results evaluation.

VANTAGE/VANGARD will hold weekly Genomic Design Studios which offer a panel of experts to review research proposals set forth by those in the Vanderbilt research community.
