Repost from @washoesheriff • “Don’t let hollow heroes distract you from saving yourself.” -Nikki Rowe The Washoe County Sheriff’s Office Veterans Barracks inside our Detention Facility represent an emerging shift in the philosophy of law enforcement. We are continually working to stabilize individuals entrusted to our custody, and work to return them to the community better off than when they arrived. Prior to coming here, these inmates served our country. Today, the @battle_born_yoga_project volunteered their time to help our Veterans learn to recognize the stresses accumulated throughout their lives. In addition to recognizing stressors, the Battle Born Yoga Project also teaches our Veterans how to manage stress and emotional health through a holistic approach of mindfulness and meditation. The Battle Born Yoga Project is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that introduces yoga and meditation to Veterans and service members in our community by offering free classes and workshops. All classes are: • Culturally appropriate and conducted in way that is relevant to the military and first responder communities • Evidence- Based: All teachers are continually up to date with the latest research and teachings • Trauma Sensitive: The practices we teach are all trauma-sensitive, safe, effective and appropriate for those with visible or invisible injuries incurred from trauma, war or life - # #yogaforvets #renoveterans #renovets #yogaforPTSD #yogaforcombatwarriors #yogaformitary #yogaforanxiety #supporourvets #warriorsatease (at Reno, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFxZXz7FBRW/?igshid=xbymivuvdall
