Have you ever wondered why you “feel” more at home or peaceful in certain environments? Perhaps you’ve noticed the difference in yourself when you arrived at a beautiful aerial studio?

It is true that the space in which we inhabit can change how we feel. Everything in the environment is interconnected and works in relationship to everything else. Entering a space that is inviting and balances the senses can help us make a positive psychological shift toward comfort and safety.

Researchers have explored this concept in combination with ‘biophilic design’ that brings the authentic presence of nature into a space. Elements like plant life and sensory stimuli that is directly linked to environmental qualities have been shown to promote healing and improve performance. In the Aerial Yoga Therapeutics postgraduate training, we explore some of the most important considerations in creating a therapeutic space as it has a profound influence on the experience of health and happiness for both the instructor and the client.

Students who enjoy more personalised tuition or require individualised care can benefit from attending tailored one-on-one or small group therapy sessions that combine traditional floor and aerial approaches. Find out more about the services available for self-managed NDIS support.
