Meet your experience of stress and mental health with compassion and empowered action.

This course brings together yoga wisdom, neuroscience, lived experience and the most valuable tools I’ve gained from over 10 years practicing, studying and teaching yoga.

There are many factors that impact the state of our mental health, mood and how our nervous system responds to stress. Past experiences and the culture and society we’re a part of plays a huge role, and it’s not all within our control.

Yoga is not a cure-all. But it’s a powerful practice to make purposeful choices in the parts we can control that help us improve our sense of wellbeing and navigate life’s inevitable challenges.

This course is for you if you want to:

  • Feel more calm and centred

  • Focus better

  • Reduce brain fog

  • Rediscover a sense of vitality from burnout, depletion and low mood

  • Be less reactive with loved ones

  • Enhance your self-compassion

You’ll learn:

  • How stress shows up in your mind and body

  • How your nervous system works, so you’re empowered to take action that supports your mental and physical wellbeing

  • Different styles of yoga and when to use or adapt them

You’ll have the tools to:

  • Develop your own yoga or meditation practice to meet changing mental and emotional states

  • Choose which yoga classes to join based on your needs

  • Skip or adapt teacher invitations within a class to honour your nervous system

  • Use grounding tools on and off the yoga mat

  • Create your own tailored Mental Health Toolbox to support you anytime, anywhere

Who isn’t it for:

  • People who want to build their competence in challenging physical postures like arm balances and handstands

  • Those looking for talk therapy

  • NOTE: if you’re experiencing a diagnosed mental health condition and feel you may not be adequately resourced or safe to explore new tools and techniques alone, make sure you contact a mental health professional before starting to support you through this course

What you get:

  • 6 months access to all 6 course content modules to watch as many times as you like, including:

  • 7 informative talks backed by neuroscience and research

  • 4 full-length yoga and meditation practices

  • 2 shorter grounding practices to integrate daily

  • 8 downloadable resources to apply learnings to your life

  • 6 months FREE access to the Yoga with Verity Video Library, including more than 70 yoga and meditation videos to support your learnings (valued over $114)

FAQs

Is the course for beginners or people with yoga experience?

  • The yoga practices are all appropriate for beginners. But those who have practiced before will enjoy connecting how different yoga styles and techniques benefit different moods and nervous system states

What if I have an injury or health issue?

  • Get in touch with me at info@yogawithverity.com.au to discuss whether this will affect your participation in the course content

Why is this different to a normal yoga class?

  • On top of full-length yoga classes, this course includes short learning modules to help you better understand the physiological states we experience in our brain and nervous system at different times. With this knowledge, you are empowered to create or adapt any yoga practice to meet your needs. Whilst we’d love to think that attending any yoga will feel healing, this simply isn’t the case. When we have been feeling stressed, anxious, depressed or burnt out, we need to choose the kind of practice that will meet us where we are
