Cracking the Code – How to Bring Yoga into Healthcare Saturday 26th November 2022

Yoga offers a significant therapeutic value for so many health conditions and is increasingly being integrated into healthcare. In this one-day interactive seminar, international leaders in this field, will: share insights, explain how to access pre-existing pathways, share research that can be expressed to health professionals, and provide important tips for individuals wishing to work at a grassroots or national level. Participants will also have an opportunity to network and learn from shared experience. From Sweden you will hear from Goran Bol – whose Mediyoga organisation has gone furthest at integrating yoga into a national healthcare system. Sat Bir Singh Khalsa from Harvard Medical School will summarise the evidence base for yoga in healthcare. Paul Fox and Heather Mason will share the success of The Yoga In Healthcare Alliance (YIHA) in bringing yoga into the NHS via the social prescribing pathway. Yvonne O’Garrow will share her experiences of running and funding Yoga4Health and doctors and yoga teachers Avi Sharma, Rebekah Lawrence, Chang-Sun Park and clinical psychologist Claire Scanlan will share their experiences.
