Bioenergetic Analysis is a dynamic psychotherapy that blends traditional modalities with a body-oriented approach. Based on the interconnection of mental, emotional and physical health, Bioenergetic Analysis focuses on the expression of unexpressed emotion which can lead to symptoms of unhappiness and stress such as insomnia, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, or decreased sexuality. Learn how working directly with the body to relieve chronic tensions and release blocked emotions, one can become more free, more relaxed, and more able to enjoy life. In this workshop you will learn to theoretical basis of Bioenergetic Analysis, experience “grounding” exercises and observe a live therapy demonstration.

Helping Hyper Children Relax
Monday, November 24th, 2008 | Balloon Exercises | 2 Comments
Everything we do is connected with the breath. I use breath awareness with all of the clients I work with because it is a tool that clients can easily grasp and they can practice anywhere. For clients who are hyperactive and have a difficult time focusing in school, I use the balloon exercises to help them build focus and patience.

Let your child know why you say “yes” and “no” to them. This helps develop problem solving skills and let’s the child know that their feelings are healthy.
