I addressed these issues in my new Freedom From Back Pain video based training program, focused on
greater training impact in the educational process. This led to Freedom From Stress and Back Pain and the introduction of many new
training procedures, including various martial arts performance skills. The newly completed program was implemented
within numerous employer environments across North America. You can check this out at www.FFbackpain.com
Freedom From Back Pain,
and then Freedom From Stress and Back
Pain, contains four training modules referred to as RELAXED MOVES, POWER
MOVES, ELASTIC MOVES and FOCUSED MOVES. An
introduction to these modules can be reviewed on the above site. Relaxation Therapy and the Position of
Comfort are presented in the Relaxed Moves module.
As communication technology expanded, I contracted with PRIMEDIA
in Dallas, TX and created Watch Your Back
for the nationwide audience of policemen and firemen. This broadcast represents one of the first
implementations of back injury prevention training within the workplace
learning environment.
Of course, this isn’t the end of the story. In 1995 I published In The Zone: Making Winning Moments Your Way of Life, representing another
training advance into the world of Sport Psychology. The
4-Core Competencies of Elite Performers In the Zone was the next
evolutionary step as relaxation, balance, flexibility and focus were further sharpened
into the training procedures they are today.
We have come a long way from sound on slide presentations, to video
based programs, DVDs and MP3 files downloaded from the internet.
Our next step, in January of 2009, was to implement First Aid for Back Pain with PureSafety
online training out of Nashville, TN.
Once again, Relaxation Therapy in the Position of Comfort was featured
as an important step for those employers and employees wanting to self-manage
relief from their back pain.
I am currently considering introducing IN THE ZONE SELF-MASTERY TRAINING procedures within web training
environments, again pursuing ever more advanced training as I continue to
include the ever advancing communication technologies. The program includes new information,
particularly information resulting from research in the new science of the
brain.
New measurement technologies and exciting new research findings
are shedding light on the secrets of the brain and how it functions. It is exciting to see how Relaxation Therapy
and Self-Mastery training continues to play a central role. Scientists are learning more about the importance
of deep relaxation and deep rhythmic breathing, and how they positively affect
brain development, the functioning of our nervous system, and so much more.
Currently, I work with patients within Individual and Group
Therapy environments and continue to offer RT as a basic ingredient of the
therapy I do. I continually learn from
my patients as I expect to learn from followers of this Blog. You are encouraged to express your comments
and questions. New ideas often spring
from unexpected sources and I will be pleased if one of these ideas comes from
you.
Remember, you ARE what you think. You BECOME what you do.
