Embodied Healing: Trauma-Informed Yoga and Meditation for Survivors of Sexual Assault

The Breathe Network’s course, Embodied Healing: Trauma-Informed Yoga and Meditation for Sexual Assault Survivors, is co-taught by a team of 16 teachers, all of whom are seasoned professionals in the realms of trauma, psychology, sexual assault, yoga, and meditation. This course is an accessible and empowering way for survivors to embark upon or deepen their healing through sustainable, somatic, and holistic practices. Participants learn about trauma-informed yoga and meditation from a variety of lenses, and their learning is bookended with accessible education on cutting-edge insights on stress and resilience physiology, managing triggers and flashbacks, self-care, and 6 guided yoga and meditation practices. Beginning to work with somatic or body-centered practices like yoga and meditation can feel vulnerable, and this course allows people to participate from the comfort of their own space and move through the material at their own pace.

  • We ask team members to identify racial disparities in their programs and / or portfolios.
  • We analyze disaggregated data and root causes of race disparities that impact the organization's programs, portfolios, and the populations served.
  • We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing needs of the communities we support.
  • We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
  • We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.

  • We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
