Stress Mitigation “Abreatheiated” . . .Ultradian Rhythm & Breathing Strategies with Ed Harrold
This course aims to familiarize nurses with the Ultradian Rhythms – specifically the Basic Activity Rest Cycle (B.R.A.C), the consequences of ignoring the body’s signals to rest during an ‘Ultradian Trough,’ and provide teachable strategies & breathing techniques to not only mitigate the long-term effects of accumulated Ultradian Stress, but harness our natural rhythms to maximize resilience, health, and performance at work and in our personal lives.
