Mind Balance Yoga ~ Sara Morrow, PhD, LLC
How Does Yoga Work?• Decreases Sympathetic Nervous System arousal
– “Stress Response”
– “Fight/Flight/Freeze”
• Fight – Anger
• Flight – Anxiety
• Freeze – Depression
– Most mental health problems relate to an over-stimulated SNS, which also affects physical health
• Increases Parasympathetic Nervous System function
– “Relaxation Response”
– “Rest & Digest”

Mind Balance Yoga ~ Sara Morrow, PhD, LLC
Research Evidence• 2011 meta-analysis of peer reviewed, published research from 1990-2009
found yoga to:– enhance muscular strength, body flexibility– improve respiratory and cardiovascular function– promote recovery from addiction– reduce stress, anxiety, depression– reduce chronic pain– improve sleep patterns– enhance overall well-being and quality of life
• Yoga produces a physiological state opposite to that of the fight-or-flight stress response and with that interruption in the stress response, a sense of balance and union between the mind and body can be achieved.

Vagus Nerve
• It is the longest nerve of the autonomic nervous system in the human body.
• parasympathetic control of the heart, lungs, and digestive tract.
• This means that the vagus nerve is responsible for such varied tasks as heart rate, sweating, and quite a few muscle movements in the mouth, including speech

Vagus Nerve
• Yoga (and deep breathing) mechanically stimulates the vagusnerve:
– Controls motor and sensory functioning
• MOTOR: Efferent nerve
• SENSORY: Afferent nerve
– Regulates heart rhythms
– Stimulates Parasympathetic NS, calms Sympathetic NS

Breathing ~ Pranayama• Shallow, irregular breathing
– Increase heart rate
– Raise blood pressure
– Speed up the mind
– Cause nervous system to be out of balance
– Increase anxiety and depression
• Regulated breathing– Lower heart rate
– Decrease blood pressure
– Calm an anxious mind, give energy to a depressed mind
– Bring nervous system back into balance
– Support emotional balance
• Allow yourself to receive the gift of oxygen

Breathing for Emotional Balance• Mouth breathing
– Is our “emergency” response – Draws air to upper lobes of lungs
• Stress receptors stimulate Sympathetic NS – Increases heart rate, respiration– Body has to work harder to get enough oxygen - wastes energy– Unfiltered, cold, dry air irritates throat - increases chance of infection
• Nasal breathing is most effective– Draws air to lower lobes of lungs where:
• 60-80% blood cells are located - receive oxygen, exchange gas• Parasympathetic NS receptors concentrated
– Quiets, calms, steadies the mind– Relaxes - stress response/emotions/body/nervous system– Lowers heart rate, blood pressure – Filters, warms, moisturizes air into lungs - immune support

Breath and Mood
• Breath patterns vary according to emotion
– Anger = short and quick
– Fear/Anxiety = retain breath, irregular
– Sadness/Upset = long and deep
– Happiness = slow, relaxed, regulated
• Having people breathe in certain patterns induces emotion

PranayamaSimpkins & Simpkins (2011) conclude that:
• Yoga breathing methods provide powerful interventions for deliberately rebalancing an out-of-balance
• Autonomic nervous system affected by mental or physical problems.
– Ujayi pranayama
– Kumbakha
– Bhastrika
