Many will turn to yoga for support in dealing with a cancer diagnosis and treatment. A recent break-through, clinical study by YOCAS, or Yoga for Cancer Survivors found that “yoga significantly reduces inflammation among cancer survivors”. This remarkable study is testament to the power of yoga, with all its facets, to help sustain and heal the individual who has undergone a cancer diagnosis. This module combines yoga, mindfulness, meditation, Yoga Nidra and self-compassion practises that are tailored to support an individual through the experience of cancer both physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Many of the practices delivered on the course will be available as audio recordings for home use.

Teacher training is best undertaken with mentoring.
.

If you decide to go on to teacher training you will most likely find courses which are condensed into intense weekends or whole weeks. This can lead to students feeling rather overwhelmed with the amount of knowledge. Receiving a one-off mentoring session can be highly refreshing, tidy up those floating ideas and improve self-confidence. Kari is also an external assessor for the British Wheel of Yoga's teacher training programme, a Diploma Course Tutor for the BWY and offers specialist training working with cancer and BWY courses at foundation levels 1 and 2.
