5. Guidance vs. Silence: Uncover the debate on whether to guide the entire Savasana experience or embrace moments of silence. Learn the best cues and their frequency to maintain a harmonious balance.
6. Inclusive Support: Discover nuanced approaches to support various physical conditions such as pregnancy, back pain, shoulder discomfort, and vertigo, while also gaining insights into trauma-sensitive practices.
