Introduction to Neurogenic Yoga

With Helena Butler, Certified Yoga Therapist C-IAYT and Neurogenic Yoga ™ (Trauma Healing and Stress Reduction) Instructor

Neurogenic Yoga™ is a groundbreaking somatic practice designed to support trauma healing and stress reduction by integrating yoga asana, pranayama, and the body’s natural shaking response. This involuntary tremoring process, much like the instinctual shaking seen in animals after a stressful event, is the nervous system’s way of discharging stored tension, resetting itself, and restoring a state of balance.

In moments of perceived threat or prolonged stress, the nervous system activates protective mechanisms, often leading to chronic muscle contraction and dysregulation if they aren’t completed at the time of the stressful event. While the body is naturally wired to release this tension through shaking, societal conditioning often suppresses this instinct from an early age, preventing us from fully processing and integrating our experiences. Neurogenic Yoga™ provides a safe and supportive way to reawaken this innate release mechanism, allowing the body to organically unwind layers of held stress, promoting resilience, regulation, and overall well-being.

By combining intentional movement, breathwork, and neurogenic tremors, this practice offers a profound opportunity for nervous system healing and self-discovery. Whether you're navigating the effects of chronic stress, trauma, or simply seeking a deeper connection to your body’s wisdom, Neurogenic Yoga™ empowers you to access your natural capacity for healing, restoration, and optimal health.
