I recently taught a stress reduction workshop at the Youth Empowerment and Leadership Conference. The audience was a group of one hundred 8th to 10th graders who were stressed because of the "expectations" and "the crazy amount of studying and preparation". They want to be able to study and know that the information will be readily available when they sit down to take the test.
Then there is the elder community "who want to keep what they have and increase clarity". They want the quality of their lives to be enhanced, not diminished.
And for those who are in the work place -- it's important to put your best foot forward and increase clarity, focus, comprehension, productivity, creativity, and vitality. When all of that is happening you will be memorable.
Here are several easy-to-do and easy-to-remember energy movements that will help you improve your memory and all the rest. You will be connecting with energy balance areas to "remind your body" to find balance and harmony. Gently hold each position (using your fingertips) for several good deep breaths.
1. Right hand - cup the back of your head with fingertips on the left base of
Left hand - cup your forehead so fingertips are on the right side.
2. Switch hands
3. Hold base of skull, right fingertips on right side and left fingertips on
left side.
4. Right hand - hold fingers along right side of neck.
Left hand - fingers "travel" down the left side of your center line
* at top of head close to center line* then just into hairline
* then at center of forehead
* then at inside of left eyebrow
* then at left cheekbone close to nostril
* then just below left collarbone close to sternum
For right side -- switch hands
You might recognize this flow as the one to also "clear" head pressure, headaches, sinus congestion and allergies. Well, if it can work for that, it will help create clear thought and let go of any mental confusion! Give it a try!!
