Enhancing Clinical Clarity: How Yoga & Ayurveda Affect Clinical Effectiveness
by Haunani Chong DrakeEnhancing Clinical Clarity: How Yoga & Ayurveda Affect Clinical Effectiveness
Course Overview
Patients or clients may tell you they practice Yoga or Ayurveda but what does that mean? Do we, as their healthcare providers, really know what the patient means when they share this? Misrepresentation of what Yoga and Ayurveda are in the U.S. and in communities outside of their South Asian origins makes it challenging for healthcare providers to know what the patient/client means.The aim of this course is to give you a broad understanding of the common concepts and therapies used in Yoga and Ayurveda, particularly focusing on the language or concepts your patients/clients might use. By looking at the qualities of these different practices and concepts, you will learn how your patient’s Yoga and/or Ayurveda practices may be contributing to their overall health patterns. By enhancing your understanding of these various practices, you can evaluate with more clinical clarity how these practices may be influencing your patient’s health challenges, your clinical assessment, diagnosis and treatments. You will also learn specific questions to ask your patients/clients so you can become very clear on what and how their practices are influencing their health patterns and put it into a broader picture of your assessment and/or clinical outcomes. My main objective is for you to feel more clear and confident asking questions that help you and the patient reduce physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual suffering.
