Region 2 (OPEN TO ALL REGIONS) | Balance + Breath: Keys to Stress Management - 1 PDU

with Alex Roark, MOT, OTR/L, RYT

Balance + Breath: Keys to Stress Management (1 PDU)
We know mindfulness can be a helpful tool for managing stress. But for people with persistent pain, history of trauma, and chronic exposure to stressful situations, mindfulness practices are often triggering and too abstract to be a practical part of the OT plan of care. Join us as we combine gentle movement, breathing, and balance to explore mindfulness as an accessible, transferable stress management skill for our patients … and ourselves.
