Sunday, October 6, 2019

Instructor: Barry Bailey, MS, LMT, Active Stretching Instructor/Coach


14  Nason Street, Suite 202
Maynard, MA 01754

     Unfortunately, everyone will experience a stroke in their lifetime, either by having one or by knowing someone who experiences a stroke. Guaranteed!
Knowing what you can do when a stroke occurs and immediately afterwards for a fast recovery is what Stroke Smarts is mostly about.

     Getting help FAST is only the first step to recovery. Knowing what to do immediately following a diagnosis is just as important. The medical team will not have time to tell you these things; they will be too busy doing tests and forming a diagnosis and prognosis. You have to already know BEFORE the prognosis what to do. Waiting for instructions and scheduled therapy sessions greatly diminishes your ability to recover as well as lessens the extent of your recovery.

     FAST is the acronym for recognizing a stroke and responding to it, but it is only a fraction of what you need to know. It’s the Cliff Notes of Cliff Notes, and it is not nearly the whole story.

     In "Stroke Smarts" I will go over the dozen or more ADDITIONAL symptoms that indicate a stroke may have occurred. I’ll discuss the different kinds of strokes and the possible repercussions that can be expected of each. I’ll share my personal stroke story, but more important, I’ll give you a solid plan of self-healing and self-recovery that you or your loved one can initiate immediately if a stroke is diagnosed.

     A STAR Tech© mantra is “Your body WANTS to be well”. The recovery and healing power of your brain is a perfect example of this. When you have a stroke, your brain is in your hands. It’s up to you to help it heal. This talk will teach you how.

Active Stretching - Beyond Basics
Sunday, August 14, 2016
2:00 - 4:30 pm
The STAR Tech Healing and Learning Center, 14 Nason Street, Maynard, Mass.

Leader: Barry "BB" Bailey, MS, LMT, Active Stretching Instructor/Coach
Cost: $35

Workshop is For:
New Students as well as anyone who has taken the Full Body Active Stretching 4 EveryBODY class. It is recommended for Elite and Weekend Athletes, Dancers, Fitness Trainers, Coaches, Massage Therapists, Physical Therapists, Chiropractors, new and seasoned Active Stretchers, muscle pain sufferers, Couch Potatoes, Retirees and anyone who wants to take stretching to a higher level and get better results!

Workshop Description:
This workshop will take you beyond what is possible in the 60 minute stretching class. It will expand your knowledge of Active Stretching, teach you how to better use it, and take you to a place of improved flexibility, better pain relief and state-of-the-art sound muscle maintenance.

You’ll learn ways to make certain stretches more powerful and more effective. Each stretch will be explained as to what muscle(s) are involved, where it/they are located, what action it does, and ways you can execute a better, more effective stretch. You’ll learn ways to fine tune the stretch, add to it, make it more challenging, and make it work better for you.

You will learn how to track the progress of your stretches and measure the range-of-motion gains you accomplish immediately as you do the stretch.

The workshop will introduce you to new stretches that the length of the one hour class does not permit.
 

Time will also be spent during the workshop fine tuning and correcting any stretches that individuals are doing poorly or incorrectly. Questions will be encouraged. Emphasis will be on safety, as it is in each class.

        This workshop is about better self-stretching. What you learn in the workshop can be immediately applied in the regular class and to your stretching at home (you DO stretch at home, don’t you?). This is stretching you do for your own self-maintenance, self-healing and injury prevention. It is stretching that is appropriate to share and teach your family and friends, or to give your clients or patients for their own self-maintenance and healing if you are an instructor or
practitioner.

Celebrate Earth Day by connecting to the Earth, to yourself and to others!

This is a “basics” workshop specifically designed for those who are curious but not fully familiar with Universal Energy, also known as Earth Energy, the free energy resource we all have at our finger tips waiting to be collected, used and shared.

 Universal Energy is everywhere. In this workshop we will look at Universal Energy vibrations and its connection to each of us. You will discover the power Universal Energy has over how we feel and how it can enrich our lives by learning to consciously work with its positive benefits. Discover and experience how unlimited Universal Energy can be accessed free and used personally. Also learn how it can be shared with another person or many persons.

 This is an interactive workshop and will involve some sharing of safe, compassionate, healing touch with other members of the group. You will learn how to access limitless Universal Energy or Earth Energy and practice using and sharing it in various ways. You will discover the tremendous power possibilities of your own touch.  The workshop will include lecture, demonstrations, personal, pair and group exercises, open group discussion, and the exchange of thoughts and ideas.

 You will learn about the crucial necessity of touch. Touch is powerful! Touch is absolutely essential for wellness and for life. You will discover the power of your own touch, and how you can share it with another person or with many others.

A special aspect of Universal Energy is the chakras, the energy centers of our body. Learn how the chakras determine your health and wellness, and explore ways to improve and balance your body’s chakra energy. The focus in this workshop will be the upper chakras, the body’s four Spiritual Energy Chakras.

Together in a safe and sacred setting of trust and sharing we will explore Universal Energy and experience how it can drawn from the Earth and be used. Through a series of fun exercises you will draw together Universal Energy, your personal energy chakras, and the healing power of your own touch. Your knowledge and experience using Universal Energy will help to connect you to the earth, to the universe and to humankind!

What to Bring: Bring an exercise mat or heavy blanket for work that will be done on the floor. Wear comfortable, unrestrictive exercise clothing that will allow you to move without restrictions. (A changing room is available at the Learning Center)

Women are not unique in their age-related body changes known as menopause. Men experience some of these changes as well. Many menopausal symptoms are shared by both men and women, while other symptoms are unique to each sex.

The male condition is also referred to as andropause. Most men are not aware of male menopause. This workshop is offered to bring about a consciousness and understanding of the body changes we can expect, or are presently experiencing as we age.

 Male menopause typically begins around ages 40 – 55, but can begin as early as 35 and as late as 65. Each man is unique. As with women, the changes that come with menopause for men are somewhat extensive.

The workshop will include a presentation of facts and study results pertaining to male menopause, with plenty of time for dialogue and the sharing of personal experience[s] and opinions.

 For both men and women, menopause is the result of hormonal changes in the body. This workshop is intended as a source of information and a better understanding of male menopause only, and in no way will offer medical advice. Learn about male menopause and its symptoms, and share your thoughts and reactions with the group.

The workshop is FOR MEN ONLY in order to provide a comfortable, safe, open dialogue environment. As men frequently have difficulty discussing personal aspects of their life among themselves, the added element of females being present can reduce this narrow openness to zero. Learn what is happening to you now or what you can expect as you age.

Minimum Participants: 4
