Recent email from an adult client who received a Brain Gym balance to help overcome fear of bike riding. She had sustained a bike-related accident, and had not ridden in 2 years:"Bike ride was so awesome!! 24 miles Saturday and 15 miles Sunday!! I was fearless!! I felt so clear and awake! Thank you a million!"
Private Balance Sessions for Individuals
An Educational Kinesiology (Edu-K) in-depth balance session provides a personalized opportunity to build resources for easy, efficient functioning for any challenging situation, process or activity. Often we operate in the world with deeply ingrained patterns of stress and compensation that are built into our physiology from early learning experiences, yet are not truly optimal ways of functioning. When caught in a stress, or "fight or flight" response, we are not able to think clearly, communicate well, nor function aligned with our true potential. We may be left feeling anxious, frustrated, or like we simply can't access what we know, or what we "should" be able to do.
Sub-optimal responses to daily life stressors affect individuals of all ages in all types of situations, ranging from children struggling with academic or social skills, to adults feeling "stuck" or unable to move forward with projects, relationships, or a variety of life tasks. A private Edu-K balance session can help shift that "stuck-ness" and replace it with a new state of balance, organization, and flow.
A balance session begins by identifying a specific personal goal, and exploring the individual's current state of functioning relative to that goal. We then use Brain Gym activities and other tools from Edu-K to shift the system out of stress, and to build a new set of balanced responses to the previously challenging circumstances. To complete the balance session, the participant learns simple movements and activities to use at home to facilitate continued growth and integration of newly learned patterns. The Edu-K in-depth balance process is a gentle and organic way to break cycles of compensation and disorganization, and to replace struggle with ease.
"I feel more ... THINKABLE !!" -- reported by a nine-year-old child after a balance session.
