In a world where society is increasingly divided and the demands of work, life, and family are ever increasing, it can be difficult to stay whole. Add in the experience of trauma and feeling overwhelmed, and the path to healing and feeling well can seem impossible. As a physiotherapist and certified yoga therapist, Adrianne Vangool has worked with people throughout her career utilizing yoga techniques and evidence-based approaches to changing pain and healing trauma. The impact of this approach has been profound. In The Journey of Self-Care to We-Care, Vangool weaves the art and science of the yoga system, inviting the reader to begin a process of seeking to know oneself and better understand the human experience. The often hard-to-understand evidence behind yoga interventions are presented in an accessible way and brought to life through story, poetry, and tangible practices. Vangool shares her lived experience and the experience of others as they’ve walked the healing path to wholeness. Through the Circle of Integration and Reclamation, she outlines a 5-step process utilizing a bio-psycho-social model to help regulate one’s nervous system, reduce pain, and move toward healing, growth, and feeling/being whole.

Yoga for the stages of pregnancy and early days postpartum
The goal of this book is to provide a guideline and user-friendly manual to assist women pre and post labour in maintaining health and wellness. There is a lot of conflicting information regarding what to do to prepare physically for labour; what type of exercise is ‘safe’ during pregnancy; and what we are supposed to do to recover in the first 6-8 weeks! This manual is not meant to provide medical advice, assess, treat, or prescribe. It is meant to be a support and a general guide for you as you continue to partake in physical activity in a safe and healthy way, while also helping to prepare you for labour and recovery in the first 6-8 weeks postpartum.
