“Biofeedback for Stress Management” with Daniel Hertz

Biofeedback can increase self-awareness and support the process of learning self-regulation. It is well-recognized as a powerful, non-invasive, and relatively simple way to measure subtle changes in the emotional and physiological state. The 3 keys to learning self-regulation will be shared and discussed.  In addition, a detailed description of diaphragmatic breathing will be presented and practiced.  Much of the hour will be spent demonstrating the capacity of the Biofeedback equipment by connecting the sensors to several volunteers.  Sensors include respiration, muscle tension, skin temperature, skin conductance, and heart rate.

Daniel Hertz, MS, BCB, E-RYT-500 is on the faculty at The Meditation Center.  He is a nationally certified Biofeedback Practitioner and has been giving individual Biofeedback  sessions at The Meditation Center since 2007. Daniel is also the author of Swami Hari: I am a simple forest monk.  All royalties from the sale of the book go to SRIVERM, the school in the remote Himalayas founded by Swami Hari.  Here is the link for the book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Swami-Hari-simple-forest-monk/dp/1456505874
