From Pain to Possibility Susi Hately

Whether you’re a yoga therapist, a yoga teacher, or a client currently in the rehab process, the concept of cueing impacts everyone, which is why today I’m discussing how to engage in cueing in a way that is most beneficial for healing.

Listen in as I explore the fundamentals of cueing, the relationship formed between health professionals and patients through cueing, as well as how to use cueing to prevent injuries and strengthen the connection to our bodies.

As I continue my mini-series on Healing & Synergy, today we’re discussing what happens when a health professional or a client hits a wall during rehab and they decide to “retire this yoga pose”.


Listen in to learn how a client’s embodied awareness can lead to better connection, less tension, and less gripping. And how, in those states, a patient can increase their capabilities and, as a result, progress their healing.

Welcome to another special episode in the Healing & Synergy mini-series where we are discussing the three biggest myths associated with yoga therapy and the business of practicing it. There are so many great training programs out there that neglect to give participants the education they need to grow a thriving practice without sacrificing their well-being. 
 
Tune in as I’m challenging the idea that you can’t actually make a living being a yoga therapist or that people are unwilling to pay your fee and, instead, allow me to provide marketing advice on how to deliver what it is you truly offer.

In this next part of the Healing & Synergy mini-series, we’re discussing the concept of modifications and how, while they may be useful in yoga teaching, they can be counterproductive in yoga therapy. 
 
Tune in as I explain how such modifications limit the healing process during rehabilitation as well as the thinking required to move away from those workarounds to actually resolve a patient’s core movement issues.
