It should feel hopeful and curious! As if you want to try it out to see what yoga can do for you. Medical Yoga for beginners is suitable for you who have little or no experience of yoga, no prior knowledge is required and we start from a chair, mat or bolster. Is this autumn the time you give yoga a chance?
”In 2010, the term MediYoga was adopted, which marked a collaboration in Sweden between academia, the institute and healthcare professionals to study its effects. Studies show that MediYoga improves quality of life, reduces depression in heart failure patients, lowers blood pressure in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, and relieves stress and back pain, just to name a few groups that have actually experienced medical effects from yoga.
MOSI (MediYoga Standardized Intervention) has been developed through research and proven experience since 1997.
MOSI contains exercises and programmes in mindfulness, breathwork, movement training and meditation.
MOSI is evidence-based, effective, adaptable and accessible, applicable, standardised and generalisable. If you want to read more about MOSI as used in Swedish healthcare, you can read more at simy.se
In the beginner's course, I talk through and explain the exercises for the different sessions, leaving room for questions and reflection. We practise and strive, with everyone starting from their own conditions wherever they are for the day. All exercises are performed sitting or lying on a mat, or from a chair.
Mats and bolsters are in place; you bring your own blanket and wear light-coloured clothes that do not shed or discolour the white wool rugs.
