 SYSTEM PROGRAMS FOR 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 currently teach 
 simple\, effective voluntary regulated 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 (in the 3rd trimester).\n\nThe practices being taught 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.

 they should avoid breath holding\, forceful breath practices\, and lying on 
 their right side (in the 3rd trimester).\n\nThe practices being taught in
