Here we will:
- Explore the sources of addictive behavior
- Investigate yogic and 12-step principles as a foundation of recovery
- Recognize the symptomology of unresolved trauma and nervous system dys-regulation

- Create safe, sacred, open, and inclusive space that welcomes all dealing with their own addictive behaviors or are affected by the addictive behavior of others
- Use yoga and its practices to provide relapse prevention tools and sustainable ways to manage internal stress
- Take advantage of teachable moments, help resolve ambivalence and work with those who may be struggling emotionally
- Recognize the traps of projection, transference, countertransference, boundary violations and spiritual bypass
