Dynamic Mindfulness is a secular and trauma-informed version of yoga that can be used by anyone, anywhere, at anytime. Niroga is passionate about supporting our... students, families, teachers, and mental health professionals that are impacted by trauma with these evidence based, healing practices. "...since the effects of trauma can be physical, "body-mind" interventions, like yoga, may be able to uniquely address them. Regulated breathing, for example, calms the parasympathetic nervous system. Practicing staying in the moment counteracts some of the dissociative effects of trauma. And the physical activity of yoga, of course, can directly improve health." https://www.kqed.org//4/the-role-of-yoga-in-healing-trauma

Mindfulness is being used in so many classrooms and schools to support student self-regulation and prepare students for learning! In this video from Edutopia, we get to observe a teacher and her class practicing static mindfulness after lunch to transition into learning back in the classroom. While static mindfulness can be effective, it is important to remember that trauma-informed mindfulness involves moving the body because "our issues are in our tissues." Based on trauma research, Niroga Institute intentionally designed Dynamic Mindfulness (DMind) to incorporate movement that is so crucial in healing stress and trauma!
