Yoga

Mind-Body Healing for Sustainable Recovery

Yoga is a transformative practice that helps individuals reconnect with their bodies, calm the mind, and cultivate inner balance. At Avan Wellness Center, we incorporate yoga as part of our holistic approach to recovery, promoting physical strength, emotional stability, and spiritual wellness throughout the healing process.

Whether you’re new to yoga or have been practicing for years, each session is customized to meet your current needs, allowing you to move forward with greater clarity and control in your recovery journey.

What Is Yoga Therapy?

Yoga therapy combines physical postures (asanas), breath control (pranayama), and meditation to increase awareness of the body and mind. Within the recovery context, it supports emotional stability, reduces cravings and stress, and encourages overall wellness.

By resetting the nervous system, yoga allows individuals to process emotions with greater ease, reduce anxiety, and build resilience. Through gentle movements and breath awareness, yoga empowersindividuals in recovery to feel grounded and centered in their healing journey.

Benefits of Yoga in Recovery Include:

  • Reduced anxiety, depression, and stress

  • Increased physical strength and flexibility

  • Improved emotional awareness and regulation

  • Enhanced self-esteem and mindfulness

How Yoga Supports Recovery

Yoga is deeply integrated into our holistic treatment model, providing physical and emotional healing in a peaceful, supportive environment. These sessions foster mindfulness, patience, and personal growth, which are essential for long-term, sustainable recovery.

Dual Diagnosis

Yoga is especially beneficial for individuals with co-occurring mental health conditions, helping regulate mood, reduce emotional reactivity, and increase emotional clarity.

Stress and Anxiety Reduction

By practicing deep breathing and mindful movement, yoga helps lower cortisol levels, promoting relaxation and emotional balance.

Improved Mind-Body Connection

For many in recovery, there is a disconnection from the body. Yoga helps restore trust, awareness, and appreciation for the physical self.

Daily Emotional Resilience

Consistent yoga practice enhances self-regulation, improves decision-making, and helps manage difficult emotions in real-time.
