Chapter 4: Yoga and Yoga Therapy
The practices, paths, limbs and teaching of yoga provide a valuable framework from which pain, suffering, and pain care can be viewed. Equally important is the practical application of yoga techniques through each of the limbs and paths of yoga, allowing individuals to explore and learn to influence the lived experience of persisting pain.
This webinar dives deeper into these aspects of yoga, while providing those just beginning exploration to understand what is yoga, what yoga teaches about pain and suffering, how the eight limbs of Raja yoga relate to pain care, and how the paths of yoga provide some insights to pain management beyond the usual biopsychosocial perspectives.
We will also cover the development of yoga therapy as an integrative healthcare profession. This work helps to provide the background of how we are discussing yoga and yoga therapy throughout the book for pain care.
Learning Objectives for Chapter 4:
- Describe foundational yoga philosophies including the eight limbs of Raja yoga, four paths of yoga, concepts of dharma, right action, and duhkha.
- Discuss the many paths and practices that comprise yoga, beyond postures and breathing.
- Describe yoga therapy as an integrative healthcare practice.
- Recognize how the pancamaya kosha perspective can enhance both assessment and treatment planning for people in pain.
What you will learn can be effectively applied via virtual and in-person consults.

Here is the description for the entire 15-part Book Club webinar series:
Are you looking for ways to better help people in pain? If you are, you’re not alone. It is estimated that over 1.5 billion people worldwide are affected by chronic pain. That’s 20.5% of the world population that is suffering and needs your help.
Join Neil Pearson, Shelly Prosko and Marlysa Sullivan, the co-editors of Yoga and Science in Pain Care, and 8 co-authors for the first-ever 15-part book club webinar series that will take place once per month over 15 months.
This book club webinar series is intended for:
- Practitioners including yoga therapists and healthcare practitioners interested in integrating yoga with their persistent pain population to expand their approaches in clinical practice
- Yoga teachers interested in understanding aspects of the science behind yoga and pain
- Medical/healthcare professionals who want to better understand pain or want to integrate yoga and mind/body practices

We also hope that this series will help bring together yoga therapists and health professionals. There is value in blending science and yoga therapy in pain care – for the person in pain, for the health professional, and for the yoga professional.
