IAYT, NAMA and YA Announce
"An Overview of Regulatory Issues for Yoga, Yoga Therapy, and Ayurveda"
by Daniel Seitz, JD, EdD.
This is an invited paper forthcoming in the 2010 International Journal
of Yoga Therapy.
We are publishing this early because of the current work of the IAYT Educational
Standards Committee and hence the timeliness of this article.
Financial support for the research and writing of this article was provided
by IAYT, the National Ayurvedic Medical Association (NAMA) and Yoga Alliance
(YA). The purpose is to serve our common goal of well-informed communication and
decisions in this complicated and challenging area. Free access to all is provided as a public service.

Yoga Therapy Today, June 2010
"Articles in Yoga Therapy Today are a reflection of Yoga therapy’s many aspects. They address practice, training and continuing education, regulation, standards, business, research, and new media of note for the profession. Case study, personal story, first-person report, interview, and opinion-oriented styles facilitate content variety that reflects views and practices of the membership. In this way, the membership itself and other health-oriented practitioners and consumers can better understand the nature of Yoga therapy.” Julie Deife, editor in chief.

International Journal of
Yoga Therapy 2009
“The 2009 International Journal of Yoga Therapy is our biggest issue ever (160 pp),
full of new research on yoga and meditation, thought-provoking perspectives on current
challenges in our field, and practical information.
The research section includes a special focus on yoga for seniors, with a
comprehensive research review as well as original research on yoga for mental health,
physical function, and bone health in older adults.”
Kelly McGonigal, PhD, Editor in Chief.

Our Yoga Therapy in Practice section includes articles on best practices and principles for working with trauma and grief, along with a guide to starting a hospital-based yoga therapy program. As has become the norm for our journal, the perspectives will set the conversation for the next year in our community, tackling issues like standards for the training of Yoga therapists, how to bring yoga to underserved populations, how yoga is portrayed in the media, and how to best scientifically study Ayurveda and Yoga.
The issue also features three unique pieces: an article by Ganesh Mohan, MBBS on how to best use traditional Yogic and Ayurvedic sources in Yoga therapy, an interview with Timothy McCall, MD and a transcript of an address by Dean Ornish, MD, delivered recently to the U.S. Senate, on the role of prevention and integrative medicine in the future of healthcare.
We hope this issue will be both an inspiration and important resource to your continuing education and professional practice.
