Let’s talk about hygiene
Ok so this is not a post about hand washing, we are all across that especially right now hey:) Of course, we are also all over our dental hygiene, basic hygiene etc- we have no arguments about its necessity. So what about mental hygiene? Here we have our brain that is constantly filtering, assessing, reasoning, responding, reacting, interacting and how often do we pay attention to it? I first heard the term ‘mental hygiene’ when listening to an interview by Krista Tippett with neuroscientist Richard Davidson on the brilliant On Being podcast. He says “we envision a time when we will recognize that our minds are just as important as our teeth and — I suspect there are no dentists in the audience — probably more important than our teeth. Doing simple mental exercise in the same way that we do physical exercise, I think, will be recognized as really an urgent public health need.” This is where biodynamic Craniosacral therapy comes in. It is a gentle therapy that empowers mindfulness of the body enabling the mind to clear out and update its ‘files’. Its a premium way of attending to our mental hygiene and supporting our optimal health and wellbeing. Book your session here.
