Synopsis

Brain Workshop Mind and Movement Exercises for Brain Health make it possible to change the structure and function of the brain. Susan A. Matthews, using decades of experience, combines the ancient secrets of Tai Chi with cutting-edge neuroscience to produce a powerful system which you can use to tap into the power of the mind and movement to change the way you think and feel, to reverse age-related changes in the brain, to rehabilitate and regain lost function after stroke or brain injury and improve memory. Integrate these ancient Tai Chi principles to maximize any exercise for improving brain health and brain function and to maximize mind-body connection. Volume One: Integrating Neuroscientific Principles is mostly lecture that presents an introduction to how the brain processes information and, using that information, how to use specific patterns of movement to activate and create new neural pathways in the brain. Learn how to tap into the power of training the mind to affect mental, and physical, well being, and even to repair brain injury. Volume Two: 12 Key Exercises to Activate the Brain are combined to provide a full one-hour practice session. The constant rhythmic motion is profoundly relaxing. The 4 parts include: 1) Spinal Dynamics, 2) Head and Neck Circulation, 3) Mental Practice, and 4) Left/Right Brain Synchrony. In each part we focus on both a physical exercise and mental exercise. The beginning focuses on the dynamics of the spine and the concept of central equilibrium. Mental The exercises teach you to create a strong sense of balance, to cultivate a sense of qi energy, and a method of effortless walking with intent, focus, and energy. Exercises to balance left and right brain activity have powerful effects both mentally and physically. Head and neck massage, relaxation and meditation can increase circulation, particularly to areas damaged by stroke or brain injury as well as open doors to higher consciousness.
