We measure our subjects’ HRV by placing tiny monitors on their arms during shavasana, the pose at the end of most classes during which practitioners lie face up, palms up, arms and legs relaxed.

A major challenge in recovering from trauma remains being able to achieve a state of total relaxation and safe surrender.
