About this Training
- Discovering Patterns
Discover how your breathing, emotions, thoughts, tension and relaxation are continuously influencing each other. - Signals from your Body
Recognise daily signals from your body and how you can influence them during stressful situations. - Increase your Resilience
Increase your 'window of tolerance', the zone in which you can handle your stress well, and find the balance between activation and relaxation. - Put Knowledge into Action
To make a real change, we need more than just knowledge about the body. The prefrontal cortex helps us control ourselves. In our final session, we'll figure out what helps you when you're very stressed. How can you bring yourself back into balance when things get tough?

About the trainer
This training is given by Marjon van Opijnen - body-oriented therapist and breathing coach.
She mainly focuses on how we can use our body and breathing to live a more relaxed life. Everything is connected with everything else, so relaxing is about how we are physically 'wired', but also about our emotions, mind and cognitions.
