Heart Space: Releasing Stored Trauma | Trauma Informed Yoga
In this class we're releasing stored trauma from the heart space. You're invited to explore shapes that open the front and back of the heart while noticing sensations and emotions that might come up. This practice is all about feeling our emotions, and letting them be heard rather than fixed or avoided.

This is the third trauma informed yoga I did from your channel. I had never done these before and every time I feel so at ease afterwards. Thank you for moving me kindly through my body. I always feel like a failure when I do yoga and I can't hold a pose so the safe space you create in your teaching and in our journey is so meaningful. Today I got to start the day with gratitude, even when I felt so disconnected yesterday. Thank you ❤

1:35 thank you for openness and vulnerability for sharing what you’re going through and what you experience during yoga! It’s very normal for our human mind to compare ourselves to others in yoga because “they know how to do it better”! We don’t even know how long the person next to us on their mat has been doing yoga!! They might be a yoga teacher for 15 years but our minds job is to think whatever it wants whether it makes sense or not, and whether or not it hurts us! Our mind doesn’t have the ability to know that it’s hurting us because all it can concern itself with is itself!!! You are doing yoga if you show up to class and lie on mat for the entire class!! Yoga is what you need in any given moment! And it’s on and off of your mat, not just the movement you do on your mat. Yoga is mind, body, and soul healing and connecting! Yoga is the vehicle that brings us home to ourselves!! It’s amazing and true!! This is what I have learned in the 7 years I’ve been doing yoga, and in the 200 hour certification YTT I just completed this month!! Just keep going in your practice. We are not perfect in any part of life and yoga is no exception!! Yoga doesn’t even have anything to do with perfection, perfection doesn’t exist. It’s your practice to help you in all ways that you need healing, and the same goes for every other individual….I suggest that every morning (or evening if you’re a night shifter like I am) take a few slow cooker deep breaths in through your nose and exhale fully out your mouth, and then thank yourself for remembering to care for yourself first thing! Then say “I am Love, I am compassion, I am enough, and I trust that the Universe will show me my purpose!! Keep it up!! Maybe a therapist could help you to work through what it is inside of you that triggers that feeling of being a failure? Maybe you’re way ahead of me on what I’ve suggested, but since I don’t know your tools I felt the call to put that out there to you!! I am so happy for you that you’re getting what you need from this class! Enjoy your journey ❤🎉🎉🎉❤

I love the instructor at my gym, she reminds us that it's ok if you don't go at the same pace and how it was a Judgement free zone. Understanding what muscles you're stretching in a pose helps, so you can alternate when you feel pain.

My name is Amanda. My first session in yoga like this. I don’t cry & I did. What an experience. Thank God for putting me on this page.
My therapist recommended doing some trauma informed yoga but I couldn't make any of the sessions. So I tried it out here. This was the first releasing stored trauma one I've done. And this made such a difference. I had to take several breaks because I was scared of moving forward. I cried several times and at the end when you said you see how much courage it took, it meant a lot to me. Thank-you for posting these videos.

I'm both a psychologist and a yoga teacher, and I definitely recommend yoga to my clients!
I have not started the exercises yet but I loved hearing you say: "I am not an authority figure". So many therapists do so much harm to patients by placing themselves as authority figures and engaging in victim blaming or simply forcing incorrect methodologies on them!
I haven’t even started the video. I’m listening to your intro. I’m crying already, your compassion is evident.

I just found Hannah's video on KZread this morning. Not more than 10 minutes ago. I sat in my chair weeping...tears continue to come. I became instantly aware of how much I'm holding inside... so much so that I rarely breathe deeply. Unconsciously bracing 'against'. Living in a state of hyper-vigilance.

I indeed felt a sense of security throughout this practice. Your statement "I am not an authority figure" hit my core. Then, I realized I have had issues with authority figures throughout my life. This practice opened a new door for me to explore. Thank you for doing this and sharing it with the world. Love and light.

I've always heard of people crying while doing hip opening yoga, and it's never happened for me, despite my tight hips. This video though, I just bawled all through the thread the needle and my jaw shook one I rolled onto my back. Absolutely profound. I thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for this.

Wow, thank you for sharing this, Shelly. What a profound experience. 💛
I realised one thing. I think I have read somewhere in your channel that you are a trauma survivor as well. Many of the abusers and murderers in this world have become that way because of the trauma and abuse stored within them. They couldn't fight it and unfortunately took up unhealthy measures to release their trauma by giving others trauma and pain as well. But people like you, are so strong, even us, that we are taking steps to turn this into one of our powers and heal others out of their own trauma. One single decision- whether to accept the trauma and correct it or take up unhealthy ways to release it- that single decision can change thousands of lives in two completely drastic ways - either heal them or destroy them. Let's appreciate all of us for being strong! Sending love!
Dear Hannah A heartfelt thank you for the amazing work that you do…it helps us who have trauma on our healing journey.. I grew up with a narcissist mother and married a narcissist husband for 34 years.. I am now separated and trying to heal myself so I can live my best life and be a wholesome human being…today I cried throughout the session and at the end of the session felt so much release of painful emotions.. the sessions are really effective and I’m doing one every day…thank you and may God bless you..LoveLightAnd Prayers to everyone who are on their healing journey❤️

Omg, I started this video with a very skeptical attitude and ended up sobbing afterward for a while. My first husband died when i was 22, and our daughter was 1. This practice triggered years of buried emotions. Thank you so much for this. So kind of you to share your knowledge with everyone ❤
Hanna I'm on verge of crying , I yawned like 10times indicating I'm releasing the suppressed emotions , thank you so much for this video ! I really appreciate and am grateful! Subscribed💗🥰
For the past two months I kept feeling the emotional trauma i was going through in my body. But couldnt quite explain it to people so I thought I was delusional. Yesterday your video popped up on my home page and I felt sooo validated , it was heart harming to see what I was feeling DOES actually exist. I’m not a fan of talking yoga videos or ones that are longer than 15 min. But I must say your voice was so gentle and comforting, I genuinely appreciate everything you had to say. It’s felt like a warm hug. I also loved that it was long so I could take my time and feel out everything. Overall I’m beyond happy I came across your video. This is my first session and definitely won’t be my last . Keep up the amazing work ❤
This released so so much out of my body it took me to thoughts and places I wasn't even aware I had within me. Thank you so much for your time and energy :)
I just did this for my Sunday morning practice and I’m smiling ear to ear. I have a tethered spinal cord issue and Ehlers Danlos, facing back surgery and doing physical therapy 5x weekly and it’s grueling sometimes. This was just… calm. Peaceful. Motivating in a quiet way… just perfect. Thank you so much for this video!
Thank you Hannah for this. I was feeling anxious and kept having nightmares which left me feeling exhausted for the day. I found your channel and thought it wouldn't hurt to try even if I wasn't expecting much. It's the third day of doing yoga before sleep and my nightmares are gone❤ Can't thank you enough for this.

I’m jazzed for this class as I had open heart surgery when I was 7. I’ve been releasing the trauma that I was unaware of in the past couple of years.❤️❤️

This was incredible, thank you!❤

Beautiful sessions Hannah!! Just what I needed this morning so grateful I have access to your video's. Just what I needed to start this morning and new year!!
Thank you for this practice. So much came up for me and I felt safe with you as a guide ❤️
Today is my exam and I was feeling tight and weak in my chest . Normally, I used to spend my time on my phone to relax and distract but as I have started doing T.I.Y i realised and felt doing it much more welcoming and relaxing to do now . Though I am not prepared well and somewhere I feel sad even though I know I was not mentally healthy but still doing as good as possible that I can do for my career and health. Thank you sis for your sessions. ❤❤from India.
Thank you for this beautiful Hannah.
This is amazing, thank you so much!❤
Wonderful ❤thank you
Thank you, so good! ❤

How wonderful! Just found your page. Saved this video for my yoga session tomorrow.
Such a state of bliss after this class. I am feeling so relaxed, I cannot thank you enough. I have just discovered your channel but I will definitely do more classes from you.
Thank you so much for this practice, Hannah! I woke up today with a super tense shoulder and head area, and was feeling very off. I feel so much better after this and will definitely try the hip practice as well :)
Rarely have comments for yoga flows but really glad I chose to connect with this video today, I am definitely going to keep returning to it - Lasting (and lovely) effects received
