As bodyworkers, our self care can easily drop to the bottom of the priority list. We can often feel burn out, overwhelm, and/or resentment creep in when we least expect it. Our capacity for sustainability in our lives and within our career can be enhanced by understanding our relationship to our autonomic nervous system. Practices to help bring awareness and understanding to your unique nervous system to work toward increased vitality and ease will be the focus of this class. 

Through the principles of Ortho-Bionomy, we will learn how to recognize and engage the resources within our own bodies using safe, comfortable positioning and gentle movement exercises. This class is excellent for anyone wishing to relieve pain, gain adaptability, and increase ease of movement in the body. 

Objective of this course include:

• Learning options for restorative practices and breath awareness exercises to tone and support the parasympathetic nervous system.

• Exploring Ortho-Bionomy self care techniques to listen for the body’s natural self-corrective response. 

• Understanding the anatomy of stress in relation to our enteric nervous system, vagus nerve, and adaptability  of our autonomic nervous system. 

• Identifying how stress inhabits in the body, ways stress can metabolize, and how ease is sensed physiologically. 

• Exploring techniques to provide options for movement and choice through the fluid system, support structural integrity and boundaries through the skeletal system, and cultivate space through awareness of energetic relationships.

• Understanding the physiology of how the systems of our body work together to store and release energy.
