Whenever we are stressed, our breathing muscles tense. As a result, we may either hold our breath, breath rapidly, or more shallowly. In this workshop we will continue the practice of Mindful-Awareness of our senses and discover how our breathing is reflective of our beliefs and emotions. Through the use of imagery and strategic breathing methods (in Session 3 of this experiential workshop), we can release tension and reduce our emotional reactiveness. Different breathing methods will be practiced along with Tense-and-Release exercises to retrain and reset the mind/body. Once tension has decreased and breathing is regulated, we will explore how to transform limiting perceptions into empowering thoughts and beliefs.
It is advantageous to enroll in all four sessions to receive a greater understanding and absorption of the Mindfulness methods, however a single session can be beneficial.
Attendees will learn:
Witnessing Challenging Beliefs, Decreasing Challenging Thoughts with Mindful-Awareness and the Breath, Using Imagery to Acknowledge and Soothe the Emotions, Developing Sensory Awareness with the Breath to Transform Stressful Thinking
