NUR 331 - Integrative Yoga: Theory and Practice for Self-Care and Holistic Healing

3 CR

This course will provide the learner with an in-depth, interdisciplinary exploration into the research-based body of scientific evidence related to yoga as an integrative healing modality. Students explore yoga through theory and practice with particular attention to psychoneuroimmunology and the stress response as well as the ways in which yoga can be used to support healing for the mind/body and the whole person. Trauma-informed and social justice yoga approaches are included to prepare learners for work with diverse populations. Students are exposed to a variety of yoga tools and supported in growing their own self-care practices, which enhances their ability to also care for others. This course is offered asynchronously with realtime opportunities for yoga practice and discussion. (This course is cross-listed with INT 331 ).

Prerequisite(s): Enrolled in BSN, ASN, Pre-Nursing, Pre-Medicine, Human and Social Services, or by instructor’s permission.
