Why is SYTA promoting and partially sponsoring SYTA members for this training?
Mental Health First Aid equips adults with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to recognise, understand and respond to a friend, family member, co-worker, or another adult, experiencing a mental health problem or mental health crisis.
Our societal culture has changed in the last few years and the awareness of mental health issues has become more prominent. As teachers and as community members it is helpful to be able to recognise how impactful events can affect us, our students and those around us and their emotional wellbeing and resilience.
In the light of Sw. Sivananda's directive of serve, love and give the SYTA committee has created an opportunity for members to complete a Community focused Mental Health First Aid training in a yogic environment. This MHFA Australia Course will be offered at Rocklyn Yoga Ashram and facilitated by MHFA Trainer Irene Ais, who is herself a yoga teacher.
Meet Irene Ais in this 2 minute introduction video and learn of the benefits of being a Mental Health First Aider.
The schedule will include early morning yoga class, yoga nidra, Mahamrityunjaya healing mantra havan and half an hour of karma yoga each morning to help freshen up the ashram environment ready for the day.
