Beskrivning

Gain a practical, embodied understanding of the Pancha Kosha model and how to apply it in therapeutic work.Informed by over a decade of research, LaMor Clements presents a framework for using the Pancha Kosha model to inform yoga therapy. She applies the model to asana, mantra, mudra, pranayama and meditation and suggests how to make choices that embody each of the Koshas. With clear guidance, sample session outlines, and meditation scripts, this book helps yoga therapists design practices that embody each of the five layers of our being. It also offers suggestions for communicating with clients about the model, provides accessible tools and handouts to help in the yoga therapy assessment phase, and presents how common conditions may relate to imbalances across the Koshas.Grounded in tradition and designed for use in daily life, this book shows you how to incorporate the Koshas in ways that empower clients on their personal journeys of self-awareness, insight, and healing.

Recensioner i media

LaMor Clements has created an invaluable resource that brilliantly bridges ancient yogic wisdom with contemporary neuroscience and trauma-informed care. This book fills a critical gap in yoga therapy literature-offering both theoretical depth and practical application of the Pancha Kosha model. Her systematic approach to assessment, her clear integration of chakras, doshas, and the nervous system, and her accessible metaphors (the koshas as labyrinth, as computer system, as blooming lotus) make complex concepts tangible for practitioners at all levels.What sets this work apart is Clements' ability to honor traditional teachings while meeting modern clinical needs. Her trauma-informed lens, integration of polyvagal theory, and emphasis on individualized care reflect the highest standards of contemporary yoga therapy practice. The comprehensive tables, sample sequences, and assessment strategies provide immediately applicable tools, while the philosophical grounding ensures practitioners understand the why behind the practices.This is essential reading for yoga therapists, yoga therapy students, and anyone seeking to understand how the kosha model can guide whole-person healing. Clements has given us a roadmap that respects both the scientific mind and the spiritual heart-exactly what our field needs.
