Shealy - Sorin Wellness Institute Dr. Norman Shealy Dr. Sergey Sorin 7 Steps To Successful Healthy Living RealHolisticDoc.com page 4 Your Keys to Taming the Stress Monster Here’s the thing, it isn’t stress itself that harms you. It’s the damage that stress causes in your body that causes more than 85% of the disease in this country. When you’re chronically stressed out, your body experiences overwhelming levels of stress hormones l ike cortisol. Without getting too far into the weeds, there are two kinds of stress. One for challenges, and one for fear. The fear kind of stress is not good. It stops you from thinking clearly and leads to panic, sweaty palms, and some occasionally reg rettable decision making. Some stress can motivate us and help us focus on achieving our goals. But too much stress, or stress carried too long, can activate our “fight or flight” response ... which, if left unchecked, can decrease our ability to function in one or more areas of our life. You don’t want to let stress take the reins in your life, you have to learn to manage it if you want to live a long, healthy life.

What is spirituality? Spirituality has many definitions, but at its core spirituality helps to give your life context. It's not necessarily connected to a specific belief system or even religiou s worship. Instead, it arises from your connection with yourself and with others, the development of your personal value system, and your search for meaning in life. For many, spirituality takes the form of religious observance, prayer, meditation or a bel ief in a higher power. For others, it can be found in nature, music, art or a secular community.

Proper levels of this powerful hormone can also help with weight loss, optimize thyroid function, and benefit the entire endocrine system as a whole. Your endocrine system controls every function of your body and balanced hormones help with healing, recovery, and overall efficiency within the body. When DHEA levels begin to drop, there is sti ll an opportunity to reverse and recover from these drops. However, when levels get too low, degeneration and progressive maladaptation occur.

The BIOGENICS’ course can change your brain forever. All you have to do is sit back, put your headphones on, and relax.

BIOGENIC also uses Autogenics training and proprietary Samvit Soun d Waves Therapy, a well - researched state of the art technology that facilitates deep relaxation, improved sleep, increased circulation, lower blood pressure and pain management among other things. Autogenic training (AT) is a technique that teaches your b ody to respond to your verbal commands. These commands "tell" your body to relax and help control breathing, blood pressure, heartbeat, and body temperature. The goal of AT is to achieve deep relaxation and reduce stress. A key principle on which autogeni cs is based is that the body will naturally balance its life energies, biochemically and psychologically, when allowed to repeatedly enter a relaxed state. The benefits of being able to do this are virtually endless. Some of them come immediately - such as being able to counteract acute stress and fatigue, refresh yourself and clear your mind. 7 Steps To Successful Healthy Living RealHolisticDoc.com page 18 People with high blood pressure who learn autogenics report drops in systolic blood pressure from 11 to 25% and more, as well as 5 to 15% in diastolic pressure.

What Does Sound Technology Do to Your Brain? By listening to the brainwave entrainment embedded into the BIOGENICS music, you train your ears into hearing these otherwise inaccessible frequencies, feeding your brain. Your brain follows the sound patterns and creates the corresponding brainwave frequ encies in a natural process called “entrainment.” Once your brain entrains to the binaural beat frequency, you are enhancing your own natural abilities by directly influencing the behavior of your mind, body and spirit. 7 Steps To Successful Healthy Living RealHolisticDoc.com page 19 What are the Benefits? When combi ned with Autogenic training, these brainwave entrainment techniques can powerfully alter your mood, behavior and your ability to focus and concentrate in a positive / optimized manner. As you listen to the brainwave entrainment techniques found in our mus ic, your brain will follow the sound patterns and then recreate the desired brainwaves in a process called the “frequency following response.” You will be actively training your brain while relaxing & enjoying!
