Enhancing Blood Circulation Without Increasing Your Heart Rate
Simon Borg-Olivier discusses the importance of doing physical practices that are gentle on the body yet develop strength, flexibility, and fitness. You can enhance blood circulation without needing to increase your heart rate (which he refers to as sharing good energy in your body), keeping you in a relaxed state of parasympathetic dominance (which he refers to as sharing loving information), while still doing things that many people would find stressful. This experience can be a model for life.
In this session, you’ll discover:
- Exercise has benefits including increased blood circulation, but can also induce stress, while meditation and relaxation can remove stress but rarely increase circulation
- It is possible to create practices that improve blood circulation without needing to increase heart rate, allowing you to enter a meditative state like the zone of an elite athlete
- A 5-10 min experiential practice
