We have a way out! Eliminate operator error!

"We weren't given a nervous system that would get us into stress, however, without also being given a way out. ---- Anxiety, fear, and depression are often not an unavoidable human condition - they are part of the misuse of the system of attention, which we understand poorly. The problems are more an operator error, a matter of how we deploy our attention, not realizing that deployment deeply affects our nervous system." A Symphony in the Brain --- Jim Robbins

In The Practice 8 week course, you learn how to deploy your attention, turning your attention onto the the lens of the perceiver. ~ Eric

Atmos Yoga -- Be Curious - 20 minutes a day can change your life!

There are now many types of meditation techniques based on ancient spiritual traditions. However, even experienced meditation practitioners often do not know whether they are consistently entering into alpha/theta brainwave states that are associated with optimal meditation.

The Atmos Yoga Advantage
Atmos Yoga is concise, effective and verifiable. It uses a series of precise mental exercises that elicit specific emotional states based on understanding the body's neurochemical processes of the body. Neurofeedback technology is used to verify that you are entering the specific brain wave states associated with meditation, enabling your body to achieve optimal health.

Muscle tension and emotional stress... think about it.

"The repression of physical and emotional stress relies, in part, on muscle tension, from the head to the feet - tension that usually has been present so long people don't realize it exists, in the same way people adapt to background sound and don't even notice it is there." Fehmi -- The Symphony in the Brain - Jim Robbins

In the 8 week practice course, we Practice to elicit alpha brain waves, these brain waves enable the physical body to let go of the background tension, relieving stress. ~ Eric

Imagine space, only space... what does space feel like?

"As soon as the eyes are closed, one is imagining space, and there is a complete absence of images; the whole brain stops working hard and synchronous alpha takes over. It is a healing state, Fehmi says, and has a powerful effect on stress." excerpted - Symphonony in the Brain - Jim Robbins.

Opening up my focus...

Today, open up your focus - allow your eyes to be lazy, do not attach your attention or give meaning to the objects around you. Notice, observe, notice your breath. This Practice elicits alpha brain waves. ~ Eric

My nervous system is a feedback loop!

My nervous systems pays attention to its self, it learns from its self. If I don't practice every day to extend the range of my experience I become hardened, less flexible, I have less range of emotion. With practice I can invite my nervous system to join into the silence, the stillness of my mind. My nervous system now pays attention to silence. Imagine that! ~Eric
