HOLISTIC COUNSELLING TRAINING FOUNDATION COURSE
Our latest new course in holistic counselling is here and ready for immediate download.
To help a client overcome intense emotions like anxiety, fear, stress, anger and panic attacks, you may like to offer them some practical breathing techniques.
One of the things you will learn in this course is important breathing techniques to help your clients overcome stress.
Deep breathing is one of the best ways to lower stress in the body. This is because when you breathe deeply, it sends a message to your brain to calm down and relax. The brain then sends this message to your body. Those things that happen when you are stressed, such as increased heart rate, fast breathing, and high blood pressure, all decrease as you breathe deeply to relax.
The most common emotion we experience is anxiety. All of us will experience the unpleasant effects of anxiety at some point in our lives, often as a result of a personal crisis. Anxiety is a type of fear, but not a state of fear triggered by immediate and present danger – such as someone about to attack us. Anxiety is more of virtual state of fear, though it feels very real at the time. It is virtual in the sense that it is triggered by traumatic memories from the past; or it is based on fantasies of catastrophic events in the future.

What are the benefits to of becoming a Holistic counsellor?
If you are already working as a therapist or would like to train to become a good healer and professional practitioner then dealing with people will be your main priority. Being able to read in-between the lines can be of great benefit to you when offering treatments. When you are treating your client it is important to develop a rapport with them and making them feel immediately comfortable with you is necessary to enable healing to take place. Some clients may come to you for a reading or treatment but may bring with them anxiety or even have doubts about their own beliefs. Your job as a counsellor is to help them reach a state of awareness and self-realization. You can act as a motivator so that they can develop their own strengths and abilities to focus on becoming healthier both physically and spiritually.
