Critics Review

Michelle Fury and Ayala Homossany have crafted an essential, experience-driven guide to yoga therapy for complex trauma for all age groups, including children and adolescents. Drawing on years of hands-on work with clients, they provide accessible, trauma-sensitive tools that yoga professionals can immediately use to support healing. A must-read for anyone in the field. – Jonathan Rosenthal, MD, Neurologist, Yoga Student, Host of the Neuroscience and Yoga ConferenceWritten with warmth, depth, and fierce clarity, this book is a gift to yoga therapists. It creates a thoughtful lens for understanding complex trauma, grounded in experience and story. Brave, beautiful, and absolutely essential. – Rachel Krentzman PT, C-IAYT, CHT, Physiotherapist, Yoga Therapist & PsychotherapistThis is a book I wish I had read before I started my yoga therapy practice, because most yoga therapists will eventually encounter students with complex trauma, but few have the training to recognize these symptoms, much less to address them. Paradoxically, however, most yoga therapists will best appreciate the insights from this book only after they have experiences with this with their own students. Hence recommended for both new and experienced yoga therapists, especially those who want to learn from and work with psycho-therapists. – John Kepner, Emeritus Executive Director, International Association of Yoga TherapistsA clear, compassionate resource for clinicians and yoga therapists. Fury and Homossany offer an integrative, trauma-informed framework that supports regulation, embodiment, and healing across the lifespan. – Shawnee Thornton Hardy, C-IAYT, SEP, Author of Yoga Therapy for Children & Teens with Complex Needs and Asanas for Autism and Special NeedsI have spent my career researching the best available treatments for Complex PTSD which includes the integration somatic therapies and therapeutic yoga held within a supportive therapeutic relationship. Michelle Fury and Ayala Homossany have masterfully brought these fields together in Yoga for Complex Trauma with a depth of understanding of CPTSD while providing practical tools along with case examples. This is an invaluable resource that helps us to bridge the mental health field with ancient yogic and ayurvedic wisdom traditions. These approaches radically and meaningfully change how we address the repercussions of chronic traumatic stress. This book is so deeply needing in our current world. – Arielle Schwartz, PhD, author of The Complex PTSD Treatment Manual, The Complex PTSD Workbook, and Therapeutic Yoga for Trauma Recovery
