The core of both the Regular Wellness Week ( 7 days ) and the Extended Wellness Week ( 9 days) is two hours per day of Alpha Synchrony Neurofeedback Training. Alpha Synchrony training tends to normalize physiological functioning, re-calibrate the stress system, establish a new brain state, increase the flexibility of the attentional system and enhance one's ability to shift from one brain state to another. After sufficient Alpha Synchrony training a person can expect to be less reactive to stressful situations, feel more relaxed, experience increased energy and an enhanced a sense of well-being. While everyone experiences the training a little differently, it provides a wonderful foundation for a week of personal transformation!
In addition to Alpha Synchrony training, the Regular Wellness Week program provides a variety of choices of bodywork on Monday through Friday. You can choose from Massage, Reflexology, Reiki, Pranic Healing, Craniosacral Therapy of Somatic Release provided by On The Path Holistic Health Center (see <www.onthepath.biz> for details)
In addition to Alpha Synchrony training, the Extended Wellness Week program, includes an integrated 10 session program of Structural Therapy which addresses the tension and emotional memories "held" in the muscle tissue, and especially in the fascia that attaches muscle to bone. Releasing stress held in the body provides an extremely powerful complement to the neurofeedback training which re-calibrates the body's stress system. The Structural Therapy is provided by Bekki Shining Bearheart, LMT.
