Mindfullness Therapy: Sympathetic overdrive evokes fear, anger, & general uneasiness. Better to dominate with parasympathetic-related emotions of relaxation, digestion, orgasm, sleep, and appropriate bladder and bowel evacuations. Meditation, relaxation therapies, yoga, & biofeedback are some means to this end. Students learn to use mind to control body. Read relaxation response by dr. Benson & see heartmath.Com.
