Mind-Body and Energy Techniques

Instructions:

There are several Mind-Body and Energy techniques.

Your assignment is to find, post the link to, and summarize according to competencies a YouTube video presenting a

Mind-Body technique in a professional manner.

The mind-body energy technique I’ve chosen is Mindfulness Meditation

I have already chosen the video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMz_UagXkFk

-What is needed, is the, “Provide a transcript, like summary”

•    Provide a transcript, like summary, of the YouTube video addressing:

How the video correlates with the following course competences:

-How natural systems of the human body function (C1.1),

-The impact of humans on the environment (C1.2),

-The impact of ethnicity and culture (C1.3),

-Discerning evidence-based research from personal, cultural, or religious beliefs (1.5),

-Correlating illness prevention, health promotion, health restoration, patient education and

empowerment as it relates to alternative and complementary healthcare (C2.1).

When you find a video, you may post it immediately and indicate that the summary

will follow within a few hours, (This part has already been done).

Then, write your summary and edit your posting to include it. (This is what I need)

•Please view 3-5 peer videos and respond explaining what you have learned.

The rationale for having to respond and view 3-5 videos is there is not one video that can give

an overview of all the possible treatments in mind and body healing.

Mind-Body interventions affect energy fields in and around the body promoting health and impacting the

disease process. They promote homeostasis by either consciously changing the mind or body positions,

changing energy fields, or a combination of two or more.

Scientific research strongly links the power of our mind to health and illness. The evidence that makes

correlation between stress and disease is a new field called psychoneuroimmunology (PNI).

PNI describes the interactions among behavior, neural, endocrine, and immune processes.

This interesting and emerging field that supports the use of CAM Mind-Body techniques, especially in

the prevention of chronic disease, and possibly in the treatment of disease processes.

Examples of mind-body interventions include, but are not limited to:

-Magnet therapy

-Exercise, for example:

Yoga

TiChi

-Psychology, for example:

Guided imagery

Change your brain change your life

Meditation (This is my chosen mind-body intervention)

Hypnotherapy

Thought stopping and positive self talk
