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.

     In 2017, The Healing Arts Center offered transformative breathwork training for the first time in a decade.  This unique 100-hour course taught once a week over 20 weeks consists of 80 hours of class room instruction and 20 hours of clinical training in one of the most powerful healing modalities in complementary and alternative medicine.  While HAC does not offer this course every  year, it is deeply committed to bringing Transformative Breathwork training to health and wellness professionals and the community at large.       The course is inspired by the work of some of the nation's greatest breathwork pioneers like Judith Kravitz, Leonard Orr, Tom Goode, and Dr. Stanislav Grof.  Healing Arts Center Headmaster, Tom Tessereau, is a direct student of both Kravitz and Goode, and teaches the Transformative Breathwork Master Track,  guiding students through the curriculum to be certified breathwork facilitators.

Pranic Healing® Beyond Self-Care: Entering The World of Energy Medicine: Pranic Healing Level One, May 5 & 6

5/1/2018

Comments

 
     Grand Master Choa Kok Sui was an ethnic Chinese Filipino who was trained as an engineer.   He also had substantial education in a wide variety of energy medicine traditions from Chinese Chi Gong and Hebrew Kabbalah to Christian faith healing.  He had an extensive knowledge of Buddhist Vajrayana tantric healing which served as the root of a very unique energy healing system that he developed in conjunction with known and reputable healers over decades.  In fact,  his development of Pranic Healing®, now a global phenomenon with tens of thousands of practitioners around the world, was every bit as methodical as one would expect from a modern engineer.

HAC's Main Classroom Renamed "Ocean of Reiki" Room

For Most HAC Students, The Journey Begins and Ends In the Ocean of Reiki Room

     Five years ago, The Healing Arts Center relocated from its former location on Big Bend Boulevard in Maplewood to its current location on Manchester Avenue in Warson Woods.  At one time the old location had been a house and had a very homey feel to it, but the property owner sold critical parking space to the City of Maplewood and the building could no longer be used as a school.  The new location is centrally located and, while not in the most picturesque building ever seen, has two very important features - it is very quiet and there is plenty of parking.
    In preparing the space for the school a great deal of purification work had to be done.   Flaming salt bowls were lit.  Reiki blessings and Pranic Healing purifications were made.  The space had last been used by Missouri College before that school moved to the Hanley Road location that closed last year.  Now it was time for The Healing Arts Center to make the space its own.

HAC Opens Registration for its 20 Week Certified Breathworker Master Track for 2018.

Taught Only Once A Year, The Breathwork Master Track Is Back, But Enrollment Is Limited.

Certified Breathworker Master Track Graduating Class of 2017
HAC's First-Ever Certified Breathworker Master Track, Graduating Class, 2017
     Last year, HAC launched a revolution in wellness care by training twenty-four new certified breathworkers in its first-ever Master Track Program.  Breathwork has become a staple wellness modality at The Healing Arts Center in both its workshop programming and professional clinic offerings.  HAC considers transformational breathwork to be one of the most powerful and accessible healing modalities available anywhere.  This is because of the ability of breathwork to completely release the psychological effects of suppressed emotional obscurations such as trauma, sometimes in a single breath session.
HAC has been advocating that massage therapists should consider diversifying their therapeutic training to include modalities that can be delivered in a group setting.  Direct one-on-one therapies have a strictly limited earning potential whereas modalities that can be delivered in a one-to-many classroom distribution can greatly enhance the earning potential of a massage therapy, yoga or other holistic practice.

Breathwork: The Foundation of All Health Practices

11/29/2017

Comments

 
For Centuries, Eastern Wellness Systems Have Understood Breath As An Essential Foundation For All Health and Meditative Practices.  Western Wellness Is Finally Catching Up.
Picture
Healing Arts Center Headmaster, Tom Tessereau considers breathwork to be so important that multiple methods of this essential health practice are taught to every student at HAC.  Tom shares his knowledge with the public as well as his students and has been a practitioner of breathwork for many years. 
     For those interested in good health, fitness, meditation, or nutrition, they find that when they add breathwork to their practice, it transforms the results they are already getting in other areas. 
      Anyone can register for Releasing 2017 – Creating 2018, an introduction to transformational breathwork workshop, happening December 31st.  This is an opportunity for participants to discover breathwork and bid farewell to this year as they create their intention for life in 2018.
