Presentations and practices by: Richard P. Brown, MD & Patricia L. Gerbarg, MD

Following this course, we highly recommend attending a weekly BBM practice session (45 - 60 minutes) for six weeks.
This BBM Course and follow-up sessions fulfill the prerequisite for BBM Level-1 Teacher Training
Designed to activate mind-body communication pathways, raise energy, regulate mood, enhance performance, reduce inflammation, and help dissolve pain; this training is for anyone who wishes to improve their stress resilience, physical health, and general well-being.
BBM is also ideal for yoga teachers and practitioners, psychologists, therapists, nurses, doctors, schoolteachers, first responders, relief workers, NGOs, and administrators who may wish to attend the Level-1 Breath-Body-Mind Teacher Training. Benefits of Breath-Body-Mind have been shown in healthcare practitioners, individuals with psychiatric and medical conditions, at-risk children, veterans, active-duty military, research studies, and survivors of disasters.
The 3-day Course: Learn breathing techniques proven to relieve stress and improve mood, mental focus, and performance. Positive effects have been experienced by individuals with anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADD, cancer, and other medical conditions. Many people who have practiced these techniques say that they feel transformed, and they never would have imagined that something so simple could be so effective. Through movement, breathing, and relaxation techniques, you will learn to:
Increase your stress resilience and renew your energy
Reduce stress, anxiety, depression, and insomnia
Increase lung capacity, oxygenation, and cardio-respiratory health
Connect to your inner self and others
Improve relationships and empathic abilities
Improve performance in personal and professional activities
