I found this really interesting BBC article that I wanted to share, which has some fascinating tidbits on how yoga affects our brains. However, it also brought up a pretty big red flag for me. Yoga is wonderful, you know I believe that! But it remains an unregulated field filled with all sorts of wacky certifications that can be picked up over a weekend or two. While movement and breathwork play a critical role in mental health and supporting the nervous system, it is crucial to exercise discernment in how we apply them and to remember that yoga belongs alongside, not in place of, care from qualified professionals.
