Breathing Technique to Relieve Stress: Self-Care Awareness Month

9/19/2019

Comments

Stress. That vague constricting feeling, the weight that drags on you. It shows up as tight shoulders, low energy, clenched jaws. You have your ways to cope with stress, from talking with a friend, helping someone out, getting a big hug, exercising, or a hot bath. What would probably make a huge difference in your wellbeing is deep breathing.

Breathing is the key to regulating the nervous system, to relieve stress, promote relaxation, and more. Transformational Breathwork is a practice of guided, conscious breath that allows the body to reset from fight-flight-freeze mode, stimulating the vagus nerve, and starting a ripple effect to help every system in the body perform optimally.

Breathing is unique, because you can control it when you want to and because breath is so basic to living, it is the foundation of all health systems. Self-care encompasses many aspects of health: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.

Since September is Self-Care Awareness Month, we feature breath as a self-care practice. By learning to harness your breath through the methods you learn in a Transformational Breathwork workshop, you can bring this practice into your everyday life to improve your overall health in all of those areas, not just your stress response.

The 4-hour introduction workshop will teach you how. Everyone is welcome to attend an Introduction to Transformational Breathwork workshop. Participants frequently report that they can release negative emotions, stresses, and even the subconscious aftermath of traumatic events.

HAC Inducts Three New Members into The Order of Twin Hearts

The true spirit of The Healing Arts Center is represented by members of the Order of Twin Hearts: compassion, diligence, aptitude.

Three students graduating May 24th to be inducted into the Honors society

Three exemplary graduates will be inducted into the Order of Twin Hearts at the Red Robe Ceremony on Friday, May 24th. At the Red Robe Ceremony, The Healing Arts Center will award certificates to students graduating from the year-long Massage Therapy Training Program.

What are the Twin Hearts?

The term "twin hearts" refers to the heart and crown chakras of the Pranic Healing system and is also the name of a special meditation for world peace created by Pranic Healing Grand Master Choa Kok Sui. Thus, it seemed appropriate to name our honors society after this intention of causing wellness for all.
