Yoga for cancer Patients
Posted by Stephanie Neumann on
When you work with cancer patients, the science behind yoga becomes key. Because you are dealing with people who live under very special circumstances: they are traumatized by their diagnosis, they fear for their lives, they are suffering from the side effects of treatments like chemotherapy, and their bodies and minds are scarred by surgery and the experience of a severe and possibly deadly illness.

Have you ever been to a yoga class where the music just so perfectly fit the class it made you feel all the possible feels and sometimes even maybe wanting to sing along? I know I have.
