Department of Yoga & Mind-Body Medicine
Yoga for Health, Healing and Wellbeing
The Department of Yoga & Mind-Body Medicine explores Yoga as an academic discipline, a practical approach to healthy living, and a therapeutic tool.
The department focuses on the relationship between the mind, body, behaviour, emotions, lifestyle, and health. Students learn how appropriate Yoga-based interventions may be incorporated into health promotion, lifestyle management, rehabilitation, and supportive therapeutic care.
Students gain practical exposure to the appropriate application of Yoga practices while developing an understanding of individualisation, safety, and therapeutic planning.
The department encourages students to view Yoga as both a science of health and a way of life.
