Today, Dr. Arielle Schwartz returns to join us—and we’re talking about her two most recent books that continue to help us overcome the impacts of childhood trauma in our adult lives. Dr. Schwartz is a renowned trauma expert, licensed psychologist, registered yoga teacher, and prolific author, and Dr. Schwartz joined us previously as a guest in season two.  


In Dr. Schwartz’s Therapeutic Yoga for Trauma Recovery Flip Chart, released in August of last year, we’re given an array of yoga, breathing, and meditative practices to balance, energize, and calm the body, especially to help overcome the impacts of trauma on our minds and bodies. 


In her just-released book, Applied Polyvagal Theory in Yoga: Therapeutic Practices for Emotional Health, Dr. Schwartz takes us into a deeper dive to understand the interrelationships between mind, emotions, physiology, and behavior, and introduces us to practices that aid in rewiring our nervous systems including vagal toning, conscious breathing, mindful movement, and meditation—all of which combine to cultivate a felt sense of ease and safety; enhance our capacity to handle challenges; and recover from stress and anxiety quickly and efficiently. 

 

When I learned of Dr. Schwartz’s new books, I couldn’t wait to work through them and to invite Dr. Schwartz to talk with us once more because I knew we would gain great new learning and new practices to help us on our continuing journeys. 

 

And so I’m so incredibly grateful that Dr. Schwartz has taken the time amidst her consuming schedule to join us today.
