Life often moves at a fast pace. It’s easy to feel stretched, anxious, or emotionally drained. At Infinite Harmony, we offer yoga therapy as a gentle and practical way to restore balance, release tension, and support your mental and emotional wellbeing.

Our approach blends evidence-based yoga practices with compassion and care, creating space for you to slow down, reconnect, and find calm again.

What Is Yoga Therapy?

Yoga therapy adapts traditional yoga techniques such as  movement, breathwork, relaxation and mindfulness, to meet individual needs. It’s not about flexibility or performance; it’s about noticing how you feel, and learning tools to manage stress and emotional challenges in daily life.

A yoga therapist works with you to explore practices that can help you feel more settled, balanced, and connected. Sessions are collaborative, gentle, and tailored entirely to you.

How Yoga Therapy Can Support Mental Health

Managing Stress and Overwhelm

Stress is part of life, but chronic stress can leave the body tense and the mind constantly alert. Over time, this can lead to fatigue, irritability, and even physical discomfort.
Yoga therapy helps by:

• Encouraging the body’s relaxation response through slow, mindful movement
• Using breathwork to calm the nervous system
• Promoting awareness of tension patterns, so they can gradually release
• Providing practical tools you can use outside of sessions to find calm when things feel too much

Many people notice they begin to sleep better, feel clearer, and approach daily challenges with more ease.

Easing Anxiety

Anxiety often shows up as racing thoughts, restlessness, tightness in the chest, or a sense of being constantly “on edge.”
Yoga therapy offers gentle ways to manage these sensations by:

• Focusing on slow, steady breathing to regulate the heart rate and quieten the mind
• Incorporating grounding postures to help you feel safe and stable in your body
• Using mindfulness to train attention back to the present moment
• Building confidence in your ability to self-soothe when anxiety arises

Research shows yoga and breathwork can reduce physiological symptoms of anxiety, supporting both mental and physical calm.

Recovering from Burnout

Burnout can develop when prolonged stress leaves you physically and emotionally exhausted. You may feel detached, depleted, or unable to focus.
Through yoga therapy, we gently rebuild energy and resilience by:

• Encouraging restorative practices that allow true rest
• Supporting awareness of energy levels and boundaries
• Helping to reset the nervous system so it can respond more flexibly to daily demands

Over time, this can help you regain motivation and a sense of inner steadiness.

Low Mood and Depression

Periods of low mood can make even simple tasks feel heavy. Yoga therapy can complement professional mental health support by offering gentle, body-based tools to lift energy and improve emotional balance.
It may involve:

• Breathwork to encourage vitality and reduce sluggishness
• Gentle movement to stimulate circulation and release endorphins
• Mindfulness practices that nurture self-compassion and presence

The aim isn’t to push or force change, but to create conditions for the mind and body to gradually reawaken to calm, comfort, and connection.

Supporting Trauma Recovery

Trauma can leave the body feeling unsafe and disconnected. Yoga therapy offers a compassionate, trauma-sensitive approach that helps rebuild trust in your body and sense of safety in the present moment.
Sessions might include:

• Grounding postures to anchor you in your body
• Gentle breath awareness without pressure to change the breath
• Movement that respects your pace and boundaries
• Mindful awareness to observe sensations with safety and curiosity

Yoga therapy doesn’t replace professional trauma treatment but can gently support the healing process.

Improving Sleep

Poor sleep often follows stress, anxiety, or burnout. Difficulty switching off can make it hard to rest and recover.
Yoga therapy supports better sleep through:

• Evening routines with restorative postures and calming breathwork
• Techniques to relax the body and quieten the mind
• Awareness of daily habits that affect rest
• Building consistency to improve natural sleep rhythms

Even short, simple practices before bed can help the body unwind and prepare for deep rest.

What to Expect

Each session is a safe, quiet space to pause and reconnect. We’ll begin with a conversation about how you’re feeling and what you’d like support with. From there, we’ll explore:

• Gentle movement and restorative postures
• Breathing techniques to calm or energise
• Mindfulness and meditation
• Practical tools to integrate into daily life

No prior yoga experience is needed. Sessions are calm, steady, and adapted entirely to your comfort level.

A Gentle Path to Wellbeing

Yoga therapy offers a quiet, steady way to support mental health - not through quick fixes, but through small, consistent practices that help you meet life’s challenges with greater calm and clarity.
