FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
|
 |
I am not a Buddhist. Is Dharma Yoga Therapy a good fit for me?
Absolutely. DYT practitioners firmly believe that the best truth for you already exists within you – our work together will uncover that truth as it compliments and enhances your innate spiritual beliefs.
|
 |
I have never done yoga and am not very flexible. Will that be a problem?
No, it will not be a problem. With careful instruction and breathing, you will be safely guided through different physical poses each session. Dharma Yoga Therapy is not about what your body can do, but it's about your internal response to what your body is doing.

 |
I have a regular yoga and meditation practice. Is there anything that DYT can offer me that I cannot already do for myself?
Buddhist monks use partner-meditation as a way to greatly heighten awareness and deepen their experiences. The DYT practitioner approaches the session as both a practice of metta (unconditional love and compassion) and moving meditation, which deepens the client's experience. Again, DYT is not about what you can do, rather its value is in discovering your internal response to what you are doing.

 |
What will I get from the sessions?
Most clients report the following:
• Physical relief from chronic pains
• A feeling of deep relaxation
• Greater emotional awareness
• Enhanced mental clarity
• A sense of empowerment
• Clearer focus and sense of perspective
• Greater body awareness
• Easier and deeper breathing
|
 |
How do I prepare for the session?
You should wear loose, comfortable clothes and avoid eating for an hour before the session. Please avoid scents such as perfumes, colognes, body washes, and hair spray.
|
 |
How many sessions will I need?
Each DYT session is valuable in its own right, a trip into the internal landscape of your mind-body connection. One client described her DYT sessions as "a springboard – what I discovered was my own truth, but DYT allowed me to uncover it perhaps years before I would have otherwise." Some clients use DYT on a monthly basis, while others prefer to schedule occasional sessions to see if there is any feedback from the body that can improve their day-to-day lives.
