Are you looking for an effective massage in Mesa to reduce and control your stress quickly and effortlessly? Combining massage and meditation with a modality called The Associated Response Technique™ (ART™) is a powerful stress reduction tool – cleansing, repairing and rejuvenating the entire mind-body system.
How does it work?
When an ART™ practitioner performs a precise routine of physical pressure and/or manipulation of muscles, joints and energy centers, it provides a very pleasant deep relaxation response that engages the Parasympathetic Nervous System. When we combine that with an easy monosyllable exercise or “mantra”, the patient makes an unconscious association with the relaxation response of the physical treatment.
The result is the ability to quickly transition into a deep meditative state almost instantly, and when practiced daily, profound results are experienced. Treatments are administered fully clothed and sessions last approximately 25 minutes.
Acupressure massage is a proven and effective treatment to reduce stress and anxiety, increase blood, nutrients and energy throughout the body and improve health.
Mantra meditation is the foundation of one of the most effective and studied meditation practices you may have heard of, called Transcendental Mediation (or “TM” for short). TM has been said to be one of the most effective health-enhancing exercises that can be practiced.
Research has shown that the restful state achieved during meditation can be twice the level of deepest sleep while maintaining full mental awareness throughout the process. From a rest perspective, we can see that meditation provides a deep level of rest that provides the opportunity to cleanse, repair, and rejuvenate the entire mind-body system.
However, if you were to go to a traditional TM center to learn, it would cost you around $2500… And while learning TM includes some rituals that are more spiritual in nature, and include having your mantra chosen especially for you, the The basic practice boils down to a daily mantra meditation.
So what’s the secret? What makes mantra meditation so effective?
It’s not a secret at all. It is a simple exercise. Basically, you repeat a monosyllable word that you haven’t yet associated with anything else. You do this practice daily and begin to form an association with your word and peace and relaxation. With constant practice, you find this state of peace faster and faster… and then simply repeating this mantra helps you focus within and immediately become peaceful.
The ART™ technique is the quick way to associate your mantra with this state of peace. Your meditation practice will be highly effective in just a few treatments.
We all want to be in a calm state of awareness where you find answers and clarity, feel connected and whole, your intuition is fully engaged and aware, and you have your “ah ha!” moments…. It’s wonderful to realize that by slowing down and becoming more aware, you actually become more focused and effective.
