Managing Mental and Physical Pain by working with your Brain Frequencies
A client at visited us at HealthWalk recently and complained about back and stomach pain. When I looked at her brain map (MindSoul Brain Technologies), I mentioned to her that her stress levels seemed to parallel the pain in her abdomen and lower back. She was quick to let me know there was no stress in her life. I didn’t argue with her; instead, I created a protocol for her stress levels at three major communication locations within her brain. Within the hour, she described how the pain in her back was gone. The black under her eyes and the stress lines in her forehead and around her eyes was also gone. Today, I received a telephone call from another client who said that she had the best night of sleep she has had in months after using our services. She continued to tell me how the stress lines around her eyes and forehead diminished to the extent she had to put on her glasses to make sure. Remember, if it affects the brain, it very often affects the body. There are a few things you can do at home to supplement what we do to support you at HealthWalk. They are: Deep Breathing Deep Breathing is a simple but effective method in increasing your energy and alertness. You can do this while sitting at your desk at the office, classroom and home. Start with an exhale to empty your lungs. Now inhale slowly and deeply for the count of five; hold the breath for the count of five then slowly release for the count of five. And repeat four additional times. Increase the time of each cycle from a five count to six count to seven. The feel good neuro chemicals and oxygen originate more from the gut than the brain and the deep breathing helps to activate them. Three Minute Mental Vacation: I often ask my clients to review their happiest memories then take a few minutes to relive them. Take a few minutes to find that happy place; a place where your memories come alive. Feel the breeze, notice the ambiance, feel the moment, imagine yourself there. As you are in this state of mind, notice the feelings of calm, peace and invigoration. Enjoy the moment. Research has shown the benefits of visualization exercises for relaxation and energy. Muscular Exercise: Most any type of muscular exercise will increase your alertness, focus and attention. A brisk walk or a trip up and down the stairs can invigorate and stimulate your energy. Stretching can also stimulate mental alertness and increase mental energy Standing in the sunlight Sunlight on our skin activates the production of serotonin and vitamin D, essential components to feeling more positive and happy. Spending at least 15 minutes a day in the sun with some skin exposed will trigger the body to produce more of these compounds which help improve our moods and reduce depression and Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) Aside from working with our HealthWalk clients to rebalance their brain frequencies with MindSoul Brain Technologies, I also teach them several mental exercises to help them stimulate their brain’s balancing and positive mental energy which they can harness themselves. Your visit to HealthWalk will help you find solutions to your individual health needs. I look forward to seeing you soon. User Comments blog comments powered by Disqus |
