    ABSTRACT: Trauma can cause distinct changes in brain structure and function of mind. It creates behavioral, emotional,social and mental disorders in an individual's life. Along with single traumas, the accumulation of long-lasting repetitive traumas over time lead to the formation of different psychiatric diagnoses and trauma-related comorbidities in their life. Therefore, a holistic treatment approach is required. Although verbal expression is an important dimension in psychotherapy, it is not sufficient for an effective trauma treatment. Only progressing through the cognitive dimension or controlling the symptoms with pharmacological intervention creates significant deficiencies in the treatment. Also it becomes dysfunctional after a while due to the recurrence of the symptoms. The study aims to examine the effectiveness of the application of the "10-Week Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga" protocol of Center for Trauma and Embodiment at JRI, which is an evidence-based clinical treatment based on neuroscience, attachment theory and trauma theory to female participants with a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. It was aimed to increase the interoceptive awareness of the individuals and accordingly to decrease the depression, anxiety and stress scores significantly. The study was adapted to the culture and applied online. For 10 weeks, the sessions were conducted by a certified Trauma-Sensitive Yoga facilitator in the format of one hour group therapy once a week via the online platform. There were 16 female participants in the intervention group and 19 female participants in the control group.In thedata collection process of the study, Demographic Information Form, Complex Trauma Inventory (CTI), Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21), Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness (MAIA-II) were applied. The measurements were repeated as the pre-test one week before the start of the yoga sessions, the post-test one week after the completion of the 10-week sessions,and the follow-up test after three months. Hypotheses were tested by ANOVA.Itwas revealed that there was a statistically significant reduction in the depression, anxiety and stress scores of the participants and an increase in their interoceptive awareness. The study is important in terms of adapting the Trauma-Sensitive Yoga protocol to Turkish culture and applying it for the first time in Turkey. In addition, it is the second study in which the protocol has been applied online all over the world under pandemic conditions.
