 Part of the eight limbs of yoga include both a healthy relating to ourselves, and a healthy relating to others. The yamas refer to the outer ethical codes and are the foundation of the eight limbs. As we practice yamas, we invite ourselves to show up as kind agents of change.
Within the Eight Limbs of Yoga, the Yamas are the outer ethical codes and foundations of the eight limbs, made up of five yamas. ♥️ Yamas ♥️
The Trauma-Informed Yoga Psychology School has built our yoga teacher trainings with a foundation of ethical ways of relating to ourselves and others. Please share your thoughts & reflections below! ♥️ Dr. Melissa Jay

Dr. Melissa Jay is an Indigenous, Nehiyaw-Métis member of the Métis Nation of Alberta. Canmore Counselling is located Châ Ûpchîchîyen Kudebi (translated from Îyârhe Nakoda as “shooting at the willows”), colonially known as Canmore. The physical location of Canmore Counselling & the Trauma-Informed Yoga Psychology is in the beautiful Rocky Mountains, which is considered Treaty 7 land and home of Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III, and the traditional territory of the Îyârhe Nakoda, including the Bearspaw, Chiniki, and Wesley First Nations, as well as the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Blackfoot Confederacy, including the Siksika, Piikani, and Kainai First Nations. As an act of reconciliation and commitment to decolonization, we are committed to the TRC's Calls to Action.
At Canmore Counselling, we are also privileged to be yoga students, practitioners, and guides. Our offerings centre on the root of yoga as Indigenous to South Asia, and we are grateful to learn from and amplify the South Asian practitioners and teachers whenever possible. We are grateful for the eight limbs of yoga, as taught by Patanjali. It is a joy to walk alongside our incredible alumni of the Trauma-Informed Yoga Psychology School as they create opportunities for care, connection & curiosity within their communities.
We believe wholeheartedly that community, social justice, decolonization, anti-oppression, and anti-racism are inherent to trauma-informed care. Thank you for being here.
