Your registration is an acknowledgment that you have read and been informed by this information. \n\nPRECAUTIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES WHEN PARTICIPATING IN WESTCHESTER BREATHES\n\nWestchester Breathes is grounded in the work of Dr. Richard Brown and Dr. Patricia Gerbarg – two clinical psychologists who identified\, studied\, and teach simple\, effective breathing exercises shown to reduce the experience of stress and increase the ability of the body to self-soothe and heal. Together these practices are known as Breath-Body-Mind™ (BBM).\n\nIn participating in this class\, you will learn ancient and modern techniques to relieve stress and improve physical and mental well-being. The practices are safe for most people. Nevertheless\, some people may experience physical discomfort\, particularly if they have had recent injury or surgery\, joint pain\, back pain\, muscle pain\, or a very sedentary lifestyle. \n\nBBM practices can be done gently\, sitting\, or lying down if necessary. Listen to your body. If you experience physical discomfort\, stop\, relax\, and seek guidance from the instructor.\n\nSometimes during the practices\, emotions emerge\, such as sadness\, worry\, or anger. Usually\, such feelings are mild to moderate\, short-term\, and easy to manage. However\, if you experience intense or disturbing emotions during the practices\, please ask the instructor for support and guidance. If distress persists\, ask the instructor for advice before continuing.\n\nPlease consult your personal physician if you have had recent surgery\, uncontrolled high blood pressure\, recent heart attack\, or difficulty breathing before doing these practices. The instructor may need to modify some of the practices for individuals with certain physical or emotional issues. \n\nPlease inform the instructor ahead of time if you have any of the following conditions: uncontrolled bipolar disorder\, schizophrenia\, autism spectrum\, panic disorder\, flashbacks or dissociation\, acute or severe asthma\, moderate to severe chronic obstructive lung disease\, recent coronavirus with residual cough or airway sensitivity. If you have post-coronavirus airway sensitivity\, you may need to do the breath practices more gently and avoid forceful breathing.\n\nAlso\, please notify the instructor if you are pregnant. Pregnant women can benefit from Coherent Breathing. However\, they should avoid breath holding\, forceful breath practices\, and lying on their right side - especially in the 3rd trimester.\n\nThe practices shared in this workshop are not intended to be a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment of any specific condition. If you suspect that you have a physical or mental condition\, please consult your personal physician or primary healthcare provider.
