Yoga Care promotes social engagement through group classes, community events, and Mindful Yoga Camps. This setting helps participants build social skills and confidence while developing meaningful connections, in alignment with NDIS’s focus on community participation. As seen on the NDIS website [here] yoga is still a supported social and recreational activity. Research by the University of Newcastle supports yoga’s ability to foster community engagement, even among individuals with chronic respiratory conditions like asthma, by providing a safe space to increase physical activity [University of Newcastle Study].
Our Yoga Care sessions prioritize self-care practices, equipping participants with stress management and self-regulation skills through yoga and mindfulness. Studies, including those by the University of South Australia, have shown that consistent yoga practice improves mental resilience and emotional stability, particularly in individuals with anxiety and PTSD [University of South Australia Study].
Practical skill-building, such as hygiene routines and healthy meal preparation, is integrated into each session. This focus on daily living skills supports participants in gaining independence and confidence in managing their personal care. Such skill development is central to the NDIS goals and is reinforced by evidence from the University of Adelaide, which has shown that yoga and mindfulness contribute to overall stress reduction, benefiting both mental and physical health [University of Adelaide Study].
Through adaptive yoga practices, Yoga Care promotes physical health, flexibility, and emotional clarity. Studies from Victoria University demonstrate that yoga significantly reduces anxiety and depression among cancer survivors, supporting overall resilience—a benefit valuable to individuals managing chronic or complex health conditions [Victoria University Study].
By offering these supports under the trading name Mindful Disability Supports, Yogability Australia continues to meet and exceed NDIS standards, ensuring participants gain valuable life skills and community connections essential for a fulfilling life.
Yogability disability supports include Yoga, meditation, hygiene skills & food education. Delivered online or by one of Yogability Australia Mindful Yoga Carers.
