I think alot of patients, myself included, can benefit from deep breathing during pain to mitigate pain symptoms and improve quality of life. I am curious how the softened knees will apply to some of my patients who have weaker lower extremities.

The abundance of “low tech” examples and strategies that Richard shared really made this course exceptionally useful. It’s seemed almost too simple, but as I participated in the exercises he shared, and became more calm, I was convinced and will put these in to practice with my clients and family. Thank you!

For so long I felt like an outsider in the field of OT because my passion is Eastern Healing Principles. Love hearing how these can be incorporated into OT treatment and still bill for them. As someone who has had Fibromyalgia and needed OT and PT services, these therapies were rarely discussed or utilized. I would love to hear more about setting up a private practice using these therapies.

A truly fantastic course! It is clear that Mr. Sabel is not only very knowledgeable on this subject, but his passion and compassion shine through and is infectious! I felt myself becoming inspired and can't wait to expand my own knowledge and skills to better incorporate mindfulness practices into my OT repertoire. If you are considering this course, you will not be disappointed. Mr. Sabel delivers, and you will come away feeling exhilarated and have some solid techniques to incorporate tomorrow
