This 90-minute workshop integrates research on the science of awe (Keltner), the A.W.E. method (Amster & Eagle), and yoga’s eight limbs alongside trauma-informed clinical practices. Participants will explore how yoga therapy, mindfulness micropractices, and nature-based approaches can enhance mental health outcomes and client resilience.
Participants will learn how awe experiences, yoga practices, and nature immersion intersect to support nervous system regulation, foster resilience, and expand clients’ experiences in the healing process with top-down and bottom-up processing through mind-body integration of psychophysiological approaches. Emphasis will be placed on microdosing mindfulness techniques, accessible yoga interventions, and outdoor or nature-informed practices that can be adapted to diverse clinical settings.
