Bring Yoga into Healthcare: Shifting the Paradigm from Medical Students to Patients
Heather Mason recently lead a talk on “Bring Yoga into Healthcare: Shifting the Paradigm from Medical Students to Patients” at the College of Medicine Annual Student conference alongside national experts in integrated health. Physicians, doctors and researchers all took to the stage at the event, to explore the importance of integrated health in better health outcomes and inspire the next generation of students to champion this cause, both by bringing this work into their future practice and by banning together to modify the national curriculum so that it reflects the value of mind-body health approaches and lifestyle advice.
Yoga as a Social Prescribing Tool
Her second workshop at the Neuroscience and Yoga conference is on the topic of “A Yoga Social Prescribing Protocol: Development, Research, and Progress” on March 17th at 1pm BST. Social prescribing is the simple idea that people who lead active social lives, enjoy better health and wellbeing than those faced with the challenges of social isolation and solitude.
Yoga students, teachers, and anyone interested in the science behind yoga are invited to join.
This conference is not just an event; it’s a movement towards integrating yoga with scientific understanding to enhance our practices, teachings, and advocacy for yoga’s role in health and wellness. Whether you’re looking to deepen your practice, share evidence-based yoga benefits with others, or connect with like-minded individuals, this conference is for you.
