Manjula has established a non-profit organization, Holistic Cares, to educate and bring awareness to the community in ‘holistic’ methods of healing and managing pain and stress, thus enhancing quality of life.
What is the purpose of this workshop?
The purpose of the workshop is to learn and practice holistic mediation techniques along with breathwork to manage the pain and promote deep relaxation, mental clarity, and overall well-being.
What is the big benefit that I will get?
Both meditation and breathwork offer powerful benefits for physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Breathwork emphasizes breath control to influence mental clarity, energy levels, and emotional balance. Meditation is a powerful, non-invasive method for managing pain that works by calming the mind, reducing the emotional impact of pain, and altering the brain's response to pain signals. When practiced together, these two practices complement each other beautifully, helping significantly improve the quality of life for those suffering from chronic pain.
What will I do during this workshop?
You will learn Yogic breathing exercises known as Pranayama, that regulate the breath and, in turn, influence the mind, energy, and emotions. Prana is the life force, and "yama" means control, so Pranayama is the practice of controlling the life force through breath. Then you will be guided into meditation practice that induces deep relaxation on physical, mental, and emotional levels.
How will I feel after the workshop?
You will feel rejuvenated and calm. Both breathwork and meditation help activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes relaxation and reduces the stress response caused by chronic pain.
