What was the situation?
AG decided to give yoga at. She had previously suffered from psychosis and was at the start of her recovery journey. She had lowered her alcohol intake and was attending the gym, however she has recently suffered an ankle injury.
What was the intervention?
I provided AG with modifications to the yoga poses to prevent further injury to her ankle and also strengthening exercises to build up her capabilities once more. I listened to her weekly updates and ended up creating a safe space for her to talk about what was on her mind and how her journey towards health was going.
What was the outcome?
AG is currently attending yoga weekly as well as committing to other healthy habits such as cutting out alcohol completely and cleaning her house weekly. She is now undertaking a course to help those in the community who have suffered from psychosis as a means to ‘give back’.
