Noses are for Breathing, mouths are for Eating
When doing breathing and awareness exercises, we generally prompt you…
Becoming better at Self control exercises and Self regulation exercises can help you to become aware and manage negative emotions as they arise, and these exercises have been proven to help people manage stress better.
One specific area of the brain which controls self control and self regulation is known as the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC).
Long term work stress is associated with a reduced size in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC). Damage to this area of the brain can leave people vulnerable to depression.
The exercises we teach you at Make Space focus on increasing your Self control and Self regulation which allow you to manage your emotions better and improve your concentration and focus whilst at work and in your everyday life.
And the cool thing is we now know through the science that this will be growing the area of your brain, the dlPFC explained above!
Put simply:
Strengthen your Brain…..Regulate your Emotions…..Strengthen your Focus and Concentration!
