Relaxing Your Nervous System

Does your brain need to be convinced that relaxation is an important part of self-care? Are you a curious type? If you're the kind who likes to know the science behind your mind and body, how stress can cause disease, and how meditation and lifestyle changes can help offset modern chronic stressors at the cellular level, this course is for you.

In this 10 day course, you will learn an overview of the field of mind-body medicine and some of the research behind how the mind-body interaction plays out in our day-to-day psychology as well as at our biochemical, immune, neurologic, and genomic level.

Each lesson consists of a mini-review of the science of stress and relaxation and ends with a mini, research-supported technique to elicit your relaxation response, the physiologic opposite of your stress response.

By the end of the course, you will have learned the basic concepts of how your nervous system works to keep everything in balance and what you can do to directly influence the wear and tear of everyday stressors on your overall wellness, down to the cellular level.

The course ends with an invitation to a 10-day challenge to elicit your relaxation response on a regular basis with a flexible 10- or 20-minute meditation recording provided for your use.

Thoroughly enjoyed this course that included both scientific info and relaxing meditation. Packed a lot of "food for thought" into each session spoken in a moderately fast pace with a calm soothing voice,

Full of interesting information about the brain, body connection! ! It wZ great to get reinforcement that meditations daily are helping my brain and that I'm doing a great job!

Informative and practical, as well as inspiring. Thank you Juna!

Excellent overview of the science behind the relaxation response. I also liked the little practical breathing exercises at the end of each session. Well worth and I will listen to it again every now and then and do the 10 day challenge.

A truly wonderful balance of teaching and practice! I plan to repeat the course to let it all sink in more deeply, and continue on with the ten day challenge!

I think this course is truly life changing. Plenty of useful information delivered in a gentle and confident way in palatable, bite sized chunks together with actual relaxation response practices, every day. I already feel better and I will be continuing with Dr Juna’s meditation recordings.

Excellent, cohesive course with a great balance of information, insight and exercises.

Thank you for this informative course. I love the evidence based information that is provided. Will look for your meditations🙏

Thank you!! Such an informative course. This helped provide a deeper understanding. My intent to use this knowledge to continue to craft offerings to share in my yoga practice. 💕

Super helpful to verbalize concepts I already nurtured and to build on them with deeper knowledge.

This was a fantastic deep dive into the science behind the relation response. I'll definitely be using what I learned in my future meditation practice.

Great course, with loads of scientific information. Thanks Dr Juna for sharing your insights of the mind-body connection with the world and for your meditations. I am very grateful that I have discovered the many benefits of the relaxation response in my daily life. I think I will be sharing some of these ideas with my young relatives. As you said, it’s never too early or too late to begin. Best wishes 😊🙏

WoW what an amazing course applying right away the practice to the theory and showing the best current knowledge in a concise and accessible way.

I am a long COVIDER and your course is exactly aligned with reprogramming the whole nervous system (especially the ANS) that is so needed in most of us struggling with this condition.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much ... I really enjoyed your course ... I have been practicing TM for 50+ years. It is always great to hear a neuroscientific explanation that supports my meditation experience. 🙏

Wonderful mix of science and practice. I am a long time meditator and learned so many new and useful things. Thank you!

Very informative! I’m ready for my neurology test now! Seriously I appreciate the insight this talk has provided. I feel I can take control of my reactions that cause so much stress for me. Learning a bit about the relaxation response really has me motivated to practice it regularly. For me this is a lifesaver! A huge Thank You!

Excellent corse packed with lots of helpful guidance in a very relaxed manner.

Informative and relaxing class! I loved learning about the neuroscience connected to meditation and the relaxation response.

Calming, intellectually stimulating, non judgmental teacher. Dr Juna is the best.

I very much am grateful for this course. It was just scientific enough to explain the effects and gave knowledge to make the changes an individual needs on their journey.
Thank You
