Comments on: Study Shows Yoga as Effective as Therapy or Medication for PTSD https://healwritenow.com/study-shows-yoga-effective-therapy-medication-ptsd/ Writing & Inspiration to Heal Trauma Mon, 30 Jan 2017 17:16:11 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.8.5 By: Jane https://healwritenow.com/study-shows-yoga-effective-therapy-medication-ptsd/#comment-63790 Wed, 16 Mar 2016 14:32:57 +0000 http://healwritenow.com/?p=1844#comment-63790 I always have a big problem with the phrase “affect tolerance.” All survivors have learnt to tolerate far stronger and more frequent and more complex painful feelings than the non-traumatized. We do not need to learn to tolerate feelings, we need to stop tolerating them and feel better. As yoga is as effective as therapy, this is evidence that therapies that require survivors to spend years in agony with the accompanying poor functioning in life are not necessary.
