Eight Limbs of Aerial Yoga: Adapting Practice for Accessibility, Neurodiversity and Physical Support repositions the aerial hammock as a supportive, sensory tool to allow more people with diverse needs to experience the physical benefits of yoga and focus the mind. Finding safety in our bodies is a central theme in yoga practice but a traditional class environment does not always meet the needs of people with mobility or mental health challenges.

This inclusive and innovative guide addresses this challenge and explains the accessibility of aerial yoga, whilst honouring yoga's history and South Asian roots. With trauma-informed and mental health aware language used throughout, this book is informed by the latest research on the therapeutic applications of this practice. It also includes lived experience testimonials which highlight the variety of people it can benefit, including those experiencing anxiety, depression, and neurodivergence.

Professionals will benefit from over 250 photographs of yoga postures shared in a systematic structure designed to help them adapt the resource to their own needs and mixed groups. It explains how postures can be adapted for larger bodies, older adults, pregnancy and conditions such as EDS, and is supplemented with additional guidance on hammock installation and how to sequence postures together.
