Joseph Schwartz invites the reader to go on a journey of anatomy by exploring movement. “The Nervous System: Move your body ~ Move your brain” ~ Chapter 1 Chocked full of relevant information, Schwartz discusses the physiological process of how our breath & breathing, posture & movement, and structure & body are all in interdependent relationship with one another. By deepening our understanding of these individual components and how they integrate into the whole, both students and teachers of therapeutic yoga will gain meaningful material to broaden their scope of practice. “Restoring the proper sequence in breathing is often the foundation in the therapeutic process. As the mechanics of the breathing apparatus are restored, balance can return to structural, physiological and emotional components.” ~ Chapter 2 Instead of providing recipes in movement strategies, this book teaches the reader to combine ingredients to tailor to the unique presentations of their clients. Applied Anatomy for Yoga Therapeutics goes into great detail about a process called “Test Challenge Retest” — a strategy to help keep the body safe. Topics covered include: The Role of the Nervous System Breath and the Breathing Apparatus The Anatomy of Structure Movement and Learned Behavior Compensation and Coping Strategies Movement Repatterning Inquiry and Test Challenge Retest Anatomy Through the Lens of The 5 Primary Kinetic Chains Therapeutic Asana and Movement for Injury
