Healing Ancestral Trauma

Healing Ancestral Trauma is a powerful, self-paced online training designed to support yoga teachers, wellness practitioners, and individuals in exploring the deep intergenerational patterns that shape our physical, emotional, and energetic experience. Approved for 10 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) through Yoga Alliance, this course offers an integrative, trauma-informed framework for identifying, understanding, and transforming inherited wounds through the lens of yoga therapy. Blending yogic philosophy, modern epigenetics, and somatic healing practices, you’ll uncover how ancestral experiences are stored in the body and nervous system—and how they influence our behaviors, belief systems, and relationships. 

Why Train with My Vinyasa Practice?

Led by Michelle Young, C-IAYT Yoga Therapist, educator, and expert in anatomy, physiology, movement science, and yoga philosophy, My Vinyasa Practice (MVP) delivers a truly integrative and accessible approach to yoga education. With a trauma-informed, inclusive lens, MVP honors the multidimensional nature of the human experience—addressing both the physical and energetic body in a way that is grounded, empowering, and sustainable. Michelle’s unique background in biochemistry, education, functional movement, and therapeutic yoga ensures that students receive a comprehensive, evidence-informed education that bridges the wisdom of modern science with the depth of ancient yogic tradition. Her teaching goes beyond surface-level instruction to explore the “why” behind the practices, helping students build confidence, competence, and a deeper understanding of the body-mind connection.

Samantha Lawrence

This course changed my relationship with my family and, most importantly, with myself. I’ve done years of therapy, but this training gave me the somatic tools to finally feel safe in my body and start releasing generations of emotional pain. The ancestral healing was exactly what I didn’t know I needed.

David Jones

Healing Ancestral Trauma helped me connect the dots between the emotional patterns I’ve carried for years and the stories passed down in my lineage. The course was beautifully paced, deeply grounding, and gave me practical ways to shift how I respond to stress, relationships, and identity. Highly recommend for anyone doing deep inner work.

Jeanine Temple

I came into this course as a yoga teacher wanting to expand my offerings—and left with a profound sense of healing and empowerment. The integration of breathwork, kosha exploration, and journaling made the experience personal and transformative. It’s the kind of training that stays with you well beyond the final module.
