Services We Offer
Mindful Yoga
Mindful yoga combines mindful meditation and physical movements to help improve physical and mental health. Our mindful yoga sessions are designed to help you connect with your body, reduce stress and anxiety, increase flexibility, and find inner balance.
At Mile High Residential Treatment & Behavioral Health, we offer mindful yoga classes twice weekly at each facility. Mindful yoga offers an opportunity for our residents to learn new life skills, such as breathing and self-reflection.
The class consists of various yoga asanas and breathing techniques to guide clients in checking in with themselves and their emotions.
While moving mindfully, we focus our attention on our breath. In time, our hopes for the practice are to aid our youth in cultivating a greater sense of self-awareness, eventually leading to self-regulation or emotion regulation, which can help with the ability to cope with life’s circumstances.
Help Break Emotional Barriers With Equine Therapy in California
Equine therapy uses horses to help promote physical and emotional healing. Our equine therapy sessions are designed to help you gain insight into your emotions, build self-awareness and confidence, and improve your social skills.
Interacting and working with horses can give our residents the freedom to express themselves and feel relaxed. Our residents can work at a local stable with a therapist who can guide them and help them communicate in a better manner.
