Stress and Bowen
Occupational stress is on the increase worldwide. Over 30% of Americans experience enough daily stress to impact their performance at home or work. According to the US Center for Disease Control, more than half of all deaths up to the age of 65 are the result of stressful lifestyles.
Long-term exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems. Chronic stress disrupts nearly every system in your body. It can raise blood pressure, suppress the immune system, increase the risk of heart attack and stroke, contribute to infertility, and speed up the aging process. Long-term stress can even rewire the brain, leaving you more vulnerable to anxiety and depression. Chronic stress can also cause major damage to your productivity, your relationships, and your quality of life.
Stress management involves changing the stressful situation when you can, changing your reaction when you can’t, taking care of yourself, and making time for rest and relaxation.
Bowenwork can be a valuable part of your stress management routine, helping you relax, recharge, and get back into balance. As your body’s tension and stress is gently released and your nervous system is quieted down, you can experience deep relaxation and a sense of peace, which often lasts several days beyond your session. Many clients enjoy regular Bowenwork sessions to improve their level of energy, their calmness and sense of wellbeing, as well as their health.
