YOGA THERAPY SUPPORT FOR CARERS OF DEMENTIA PATIENTS
Nurture your own wellbeing while supporting a loved one with dementia
23, 24 & 25 June 2026 • 14:00-16:00 CET
COURSE OVERVIEW
Caring for a loved one with dementia is an act of profound compassion but it can also be emotionally exhausting and isolating. Many carers silently carry feelings of guilt, grief, and deep fatigue while giving endlessly to others with little time to restore themselves. This gentle yet empowering course is designed specifically for family members and carers of people living with dementia. Rather than focusing on how to “manage”, it prioritises your own wellbeing, while also offering simple yoga therapy practices to bring ease, connection, and harmony into daily care routines.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Each 2-hour session combines theoretical insight, guided practice, and reflective discussion. You’ll explore how yoga therapy principles and tools can support nervous-system regulation, compassionate communication, and emotional resilience in caregiving.
This training includes:
- 6 hours of live presentations
- Access to the full recording after the sessions
- Supporting written materials
- Email access to experienced C-IAYT teachers for topic-related questions
- A Certificate of Attendance with 6 Yoga Alliance CE points will be provided for those who attend all hours of the training live!
