Profound Healing Effects of Mind-Body Medicine
Mind-body skills ultimately promote self-awareness that leads to self-regulation. When we are aware of our thinking patterns that are governed by deep belief systems, we can learn to embrace them or rewire them. Thank goodness the mind is neuroplastic! Once we learn strategies that develop self-awareness, we can then learn to manage our responses. This leads to improved self-regulation, which profoundly impacts the brain, nervous system, metabolic health, immune function, and more!

Group Visits
The ability to express emotions in a safe, non-judgemental space is so healing. Group visits provide the opportunity to be seen, heard, and understood within a community of like-minded individuals. Visits consist of Mind-Body activities or intentional discussions around emotional coping, transformation of trauma, and more.
Intentional Movement
A major aspect of Mind-Body medicine is the use of movement to connect the mind to the body, drastically heal the brain, regulate vital signs, decrease stress, boost immune function, and even transform emotions. Movement such as Tai Chi has been shown to restore brain function after experiencing trauma.

Nope! In fact, movement is a form of meditation. You may even have your eyes opened while meditating! Tai-Chi, Qi Gong, walking, and spending time in nature can be various forms of meditation. A guided method of sensory activation/grounding is also a form of meditation.
