The Benefits of BodyTalk Access Yoga
Cortices
The Cortices technique is designed to improve and balance the communication between the two halves of the brain. (Think of it as hitting the reset button on your brain’s computer.) This improves the brain’s efficiency – thereby improving overall health. Specific immediate effects include improvements in thinking ability, memory and concentration, stress reduction, feelings of well-being and enhancement of general physiological functioning of the body.
Switching
One of the common side effects of stress is the tendency for the mind to go into a “switching” mode, where normal brain coordination is compromised. This can show up as inattentiveness, poor decision-making, confusion, the making of silly mistakes, poor coordination and mood swings. The “switched” person often reverses simple things such as left and right or yes and no. The Switching technique can help restore normal brain function.
Hydration
The body is 70- to 80-percent water. All physiological processes in the cells, nerves, organs and other structures are dependent upon a good supply of water. Even if someone drinks plenty of water, the body may not be utilizing it well. Very often, the transportation of water across the cell membranes is compromised. The Hydration technique helps to correct the body’s ability to fully use the water it has available – thereby greatly improving the efficiency of all physiological processes.
Body Chemistry
This amazing technique is designed to stimulate the immune system of the body into addressing many chronic and acute conditions. Often viruses, bacteria and parasites are not effectively addressed by the body’s immune system because of various imbalances in the body. The Body Chemistry technique can correct these imbalances so the body can then restore health without the need for drug intervention. This technique also works to help the immune system address allergies, food intolerance's and accumulated toxins.
Reciprocals
The integrity of the structure of the body is critical for living a healthy and mobile life. The coordination of the muscles, balance of the muscle tone and the unrestricted flow of energy through the body are all critical to healthy functioning at all levels of the bodymind complex. The Reciprocals technique involves reestablishing the integrity of the structures of the body, and it can have a significant effect on many forms of injuries, arthritis, circulatory issues, coordination patterns, spinal problems and chronic pain.
The Benefits of Yoga
The physical benefits: Creates a toned, flexible, and strong body. Improves respiration, energy, and vitality. Helps to maintain a balanced metabolism. Promotes cardio and circulatory health. Relieves pain. Helps you look and feel younger than your age. Improves your athletic performance.
The mental benefits: Helps you relax and handle stressful situations more easily. Teaches you how to quiet the mind so you can focus your energy where you want it to go and it encourages positive thoughts and self-acceptance.
The spiritual benefits: Builds awareness of your body, your feelings, the world around you, the needs of others. Promotes an interdependence between mind, body, and spirit. Helps you live the concept of "oneness."
Body Awareness: Doing yoga will give you an increased awareness of your own body. You are often called upon to make small, subtle movements to improve your alignment. Over time, this will increase your level of comfort in your own body. This can lead to improved posture and greater self-confidence.
Better Breathing: Most of us breathe very shallowly into the lungs and don't give much thought to how we breathe. Yoga breathing exercises, called Pranayama, focus the attention on the breath and teach us how to better use our lungs, which benefits the entire body. Certain types of breath can also help clear the nasal passages and even calm the central nervous system, which has both physical and mental benefits.
