Non-Profit Outreach
BodyTalk Access is a great program to offer to any non-profit organization, especially the organizations that work with the under-privileged communities. The Access wellness program can give the caregivers of the organization tools to assist in balancing their client’s brains and bodies, so that they can function better in their life. Access can also help the many stressed-out and over-worked caregivers directly, so that they can better serve their organization.
BodyTalk Access
BodyTalk Access is a one-day course, which distills several of the most commonly used BodyTalk techniques into an easy-to-learn and easy-to-use wellness routine. It was developed in order to empower individuals to help themselves and their families take care of most of the day-to-day health problems and to manage their stress levels. This rapidly growing system is being taught in well over 30 countries.
About BodyTalk Access
Overview
The BodyTalk Access program was unveiled at the 2005 International BodyTalk Association Member’s Conference. The energy was amazing, as professionals from around the world responded to the potential of this revolutionary new program.
BodyTalk Access provides the layperson, family and community with a simple set of energy-based techniques to make health maintenance and the management of daily health challenges accessible. A majority of your day-to-day health and stress-related concerns can very easily be addressed with the BodyTalk Access routine, when done on a regular basis.
Simplification
BodyTalk Access is based on the comprehensive foundation of the BodyTalk System. Several of the most powerful balancing techniques of the BodyTalk System have been adapted for use by the individual in the home, school, or work environment. These five techniques along with the Fast Aid routine, work together as a set to balance the body in very general ways. Even though the balancing is general, the effects are frequently immediately noticeable.
Increase your Resiliency
The wellness routine presented in BodyTalk Access helps to re-establish internal lines of communication within the bodymind. This ultimately helps the individual have more resiliency towards stress and any other factors that can be detrimental to long term health. The Access routine is designed to be practiced as a complete set and can be done once a day or more depending on need.
The first two techniques balance the brain, so that the brain is turned on and communicating appropriately. The next two techniques balance the metabolic processes of the body and the entire immune system, helping the body be more resilient to stress and external forces, such as germs and viruses. The final technique helps to balance posture and the physical structure of the body, thus improving range-of-motion, flexibility and overall coordination of the muscles, tendons and ligaments.
The Fast Aid routine combines two of the above techniques to assist in helping the body recover from all sorts of minor to major injuries by shifting the body out of a state of shock and trauma back into the growth and healing mode. Fast Aid is highly flexible, incredibly fast and can be used anytime or place to assist in the recovery from injuries and trauma.
Learn in One Day, Use for a Lifetime
BodyTalk Access is designed to be used by anyone: layperson, family member, care giver or healthcare provider alike. These five simple techniques can bring about a significant improvement in health and once learned in the one-day Access class, they can be implemented in less than 10 minutes. You will have these powerful tools for health for the rest of your life.
It is our hope that BodyTalk Access will be able to provide a basic level of health maintenance in communities and countries around the world where good healthcare may not be readily available. It is also our hope to reach families and give them options to take their health back into their own hands, literally.
Wellness Tools for Everyday
Promote Health, Prevent Disease
In Ben Franklin’s words, the phrase “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” goes a long way to describe the good health and balance that can be found with BodyTalk Access as a part of your daily life. The BodyTalk Access wellness routine helps your body maintain its best energetic balance so that it can maintain good health, thus preventing disease. Being proactive in your health routine is one of the best things you can do for yourself. It’s right up there with eating healthfully, getting enough sleep and being physically active.
Easy Stress Management
If you are feeling stressed out by life and work, then using the BodyTalk Access routine will help you recover more fully from the effects that stress has on your nervous system. Stress has a pervasive effect on the body, causing disease such as: hypertension and high blood pressure, digestive disorders, immune system and hormonal imbalances and physical strain in the shoulders and neck. BodyTalk Access quickly and easily helps to reset your nervous system and help you relax more easily.
Quick Injury Response
BodyTalk Access, through its Fast Aid technique, helps the bodymind draw attention to an injury so that the healing process can be jump-started. This very quickly makes the injury stop hurting and throbbing, and can reverse any swelling or bruising right before your eyes. Depending on the nature of the injury, using Fast Aid just a few times could be enough, or continued use for a little while will make dramatic changes to the injury if it is more severe. Following Fast Aid with the full Access routine will further help keep the bodymind in balance to assist in the healing process. (Of course, for serious situations one should always call for emergency help and take all the standard first aid precautions. But BodyTalk Access can be very helpful in bringing the person out of shock and retriggering the body’s self-healing capabilities while help is on the way.)
Sustainable Healthcare
Due to the fact that BodyTalk and BodyTalk Access only utilize the natural healing tools already found within us, as well as focused intent, this is a sustainable personal health practice. There are no medications prescribed or given, the techniques are totally non-invasive and they also do not require any outside tools or resources. BodyTalk Access is good for you and good for our planet!
Performance Enhancement
BodyTalk Access works well for the individual performer, as well as the team working together. By using the Access routine either as an individual or as a group, you will notice increased coordination, improved focus and overall better performance, whether you are running a race, playing a game or engaging in the more creative pursuits of music or art.
Integrates with Professional Care
BodyTalk Access is meant to be used in conjunction with your normal health and wellness routine as well as your professional medical care, whatever it is. While BodyTalk Access can help you with many of your daily issues and stress management, BodyTalk Access does not completely replace seeking professional treatment with a Certified BodyTalk Practitioner or your other healthcare providers when warranted
Access Wellness Routine
Cortices
The Cortices technique is designed to improve and balance the communication between the two halves of the brain. (Think of it as hitting the reset button on your brain’s computer.) This improves the brain’s efficiency – thereby improving overall health. Specific immediate effects include improvements in thinking ability, memory and concentration, stress reduction, feeling more physically relaxed, and enhanced general physiological functioning of the body.
Switching
One of the common side effects of stress is the tendency for the mind to go into a “switched” mode, where normal brain coordination is compromised. This can show up as inattentiveness, poor decision-making and confusion, the making of silly mistakes, poor coordination and mood swings. The “switched” person often reverses simple things such as left-and-right or yes-and-no. The Switching technique helps restore normal brain function and will help the individual to manage stress more effectively.
Hydration
The body is 70- to 80- percent water. All physiological processes in the cells, nerves, organs and other structures are dependent upon a good supply of water. Even if someone drinks plenty of water, the body may not be utilizing it well. Very often, the transportation of water across the cell membranes is compromised. The Hydration technique helps to correct the body’s ability to fully use the water it has available – thereby greatly improving the efficiency of all physiological processes.
Body Chemistry
This amazing technique is designed to stimulate the immune system of the body into addressing many chronic and acute conditions. Often viruses, bacteria and parasites are not effectively addressed by the body’s immune system because of various imbalances in the body. The Body Chemistry technique can correct these imbalances so the body can restore health without the need for drug intervention. This technique also works to help the immune system address allergies, food intolerances and accumulated toxins.
Reciprocals
The integrity of the structure of the body is critical for living a healthy and mobile life. The coordination of the muscles, balance of the muscle tone and the unrestricted flow of energy through the body are all critical to healthy functioning at all levels of the bodymind complex. The Reciprocals technique involves reestablishing the integrity of the structures of the body, and it can have a significant effect on many forms of injuries, arthritis, circulatory issues, coordination patterns, spinal problems and chronic pain.
Fast Aid Techniques
BodyTalk Access also includes an effective first-aid system that is non-invasive, safe and extremely simple. It will resolve simple issues as a stand-alone technique. For serious conditions, it is designed to be used safely until specialized healthcare arrives.
