HEALING YOGA FOR CANCER HOME PRACTICE COURSE:

Healing Yoga for Cancer Home Practice Course is a gentle yoga program specifically designed to promote health and well-being for cancer patients and survivors. The course is divided into eleven chapters each containing short video practices for yoga techniques proven to ease cancer side-effects such as pain, anxiety, insomnia, lymphedema, constipation, and cancer-related fatigue. These practices can be combined to create customized home practices that meet your changing needs during and after treatment.

  • Setting an intention to focus the mind toward a goal for healing and set the tone for the practice
  • Chanting uses simple sound practices to enhance body and breath awareness
  • Mudras to reduce anxiety and enhance immune function
  • Breathing techniques to promote healing and relaxation
  • Reclining and seated postures to reduce pain and constipation, and promote the movement of lymph through the body - they can be used as a warm-up or stand-alone practice on days when energy is low
  • Kneeling and standing postures to build energy, strength and stamina
  • Supported restorative postures to induce deep relaxation
  • Body Scan to enhance body awareness and focus
  • Final Relaxation and guided meditation to create ease in the body, mind and spirit and envision healing on all levels

PRIVATE YOGA THERAPY SESSIONS ON ZOOM:

You also receive one 90-minute private yoga therapy session on Zoom to supplement the practices in the course. I recommend scheduling your session before diving into the course; the information is in the first chapter.

BONUS CONTENT:

Enjoy six additional practice sequences to help alleviate side effects from treatment, including pain, anxiety, insomnia, neuropathy, insomnia, and lymphedema. These articles originally appeared in the Yoga U Online Wellness Blog in 2019 and are fully referenced.


Kind words from my teaching mentor, Richard Rosen, about the DVD where this program was initially published.

“In Cheryl Fenner Brown’s Healing Yoga for Cancer Survivorship DVD we have a most useful contribution to the field of yoga therapy. Cheryl is a long-time teacher and yoga therapist whose healing approach includes not only a series of yoga postures (asanas), as is typical in general of DVDs of this type, but also a unique selection of more traditional practices, such as chanting, hand gestures (mudras), and conscious breathing (pranayama).”
