BREATH-BODY-MIND™ Explained...Purpose and Vision
Breath-Body-Mind practices integrate the best of conventional and natural treatments. The practices offer conventional medicine knowledge as individuals explore their innate healing capacities and explore other natural approaches.
 
BREATH-BODY-MIND™ practices can be incorporated into many different work settings by a wide range of care providers from classroom teachers to disaster relief workers to mental health professionals and yoga therapists. The training approach means that trainees may develop different sets of skills, depending upon their backgrounds and professional work settings.
 
Breath-Body-Mind practices are being offered throughout New York State to support recovery from COVID-related stress. BBM teaches gentle evidence-based, trauma sensitive practices that provide rapid stress relief and with practice over time, improve stress resilience.
