Bridging the Gap between Yoga and Mental Health | A Cross-Sector Community Conversation

Misa Kishi, Justin Ifill, Ruth Rosenbaum, & Laura Staton Yoga is widely known as a healing practice and has been long called upon as a non-pharmaceutical solution to many health conditions. Often, new yoga practitioners come to the practice to relieve chronic illness, depression, anxiety, and many other ailments, including mental health conditions. At the same time, many may not recognize yoga as an option for mental health support or emotional relief. Given the heightened challenges we're experiencing in society today, many are wondering what we can really do to support mental health in the United States. This event brings together leaders from caring professions for a candid conversation on unique and creative approaches to mental health care. Join them as they explore cross-sector collaborations and opportunities to remove barriers to accessing effective mental and emotional support.
