This document defines emotions and discusses how yoga and breathing techniques can help regulate emotions. It provides the following key points:
1) Emotions are complex psychological phenomena that occur as people experience life events, and are intense feelings directed at someone or something.
2) Yoga decreases activity in the sympathetic nervous system associated with stress responses, and increases activity in the parasympathetic nervous system associated with relaxation. Research shows yoga can reduce stress, anxiety, depression and improve well-being.
3) Regulated breathing through yoga techniques like pranayama can calm the mind by stimulating the vagus nerve and parasympathetic nervous system, lowering heart rate and blood pressure. This opposes the fight or flight stress

Memory improvement can be achieved in two ways: 1) by improving the health of your brain, and 2) using memory skills. These are easier to do than you might think, but you have to make the effort.
Emotional wellness does NOT simply mean you are happy all of the time. There is so much more to it.
It means you are able to identify your thoughts that cause the emotions you are feeling. And you are able to handle life’s stresses, adapt to change, and cope with difficult times.
We have control over our thoughts and behaviors so must use this information to create emotional wellness with ourselves.
Stress is a normal physical response to events that make you feel threatened or upset your balance in some way.
Stress is the “wear and tear” in our minds and bodies experience as we attempt to cope with our continually changing environment
Stress is your body's way of responding to any kind of demand.
It can be caused by both good and bad experiences. When people feel stressed by something going on around them, their bodies react by releasing chemicals into the blood. These chemicals give people more energy and strength,
which can be a good thing if their stress is caused by physical danger.

Civic Media: My Presentation to Social Media Breakfast BostonCauseShift
On December 16, 2010, Scott Henderson shared these insights of how Unicef is using emerging media to help communities in developing countries solve their shared problems.
Stress has been traditionally defined as an a specific response of the organism to any kind of exogenous or endogenous stimulus that is able, due to its duration or intensity, to activate adaptation mechanisms to face the stimulus and reestablish homeostasis.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

21. Mind Balance Yoga ~ Sara Morrow, PhD, LLC
How Does Yoga Work?
• Decreases Sympathetic Nervous System arousal
– “Stress Response”
– “Fight/Flight/Freeze”
• Fight – Anger
• Flight – Anxiety
• Freeze – Depression
– Most mental health problems relate to an over-stimulated SNS, which also
affects physical health
• Increases Parasympathetic Nervous System function
– “Relaxation Response”
– “Rest & Digest”
22. Mind Balance Yoga ~ Sara Morrow, PhD, LLC
Research Evidence
• 2011 meta-analysis of peer reviewed, published research from 1990-2009
found yoga to:
– enhance muscular strength, body flexibility
– improve respiratory and cardiovascular function
– promote recovery from addiction
– reduce stress, anxiety, depression
– reduce chronic pain
– improve sleep patterns
– enhance overall well-being and quality of life
• Yoga produces a physiological state opposite to that of the fight-or-flight stress
response and with that interruption in the stress response, a sense of balance
and union between the mind and body can be achieved.
23. Vagus Nerve
• It is the longest nerve of the autonomic nervous system in the human
body.
• parasympathetic control of the heart, lungs, and digestive tract.
• This means that the vagus nerve is responsible for such varied tasks
as heart rate, sweating, and quite a few muscle movements in the mouth,
including speech
24. Mind Balance Yoga ~ Sara Morrow, PhD, LLC
Vagus Nerve
• Yoga (and deep breathing) mechanically stimulates the vagus
nerve:
– Controls motor and sensory functioning
• MOTOR: Efferent nerve
• SENSORY: Afferent nerve
– Regulates heart rhythms
– Stimulates Parasympathetic NS, calms Sympathetic NS
25. Mind Balance Yoga ~ Sara Morrow, PhD, LLC
Breathing ~ Pranayama
• Shallow, irregular breathing
– Increase heart rate
– Raise blood pressure
– Speed up the mind
– Cause nervous system to be out of balance
– Increase anxiety and depression
• Regulated breathing
– Lower heart rate
– Decrease blood pressure
– Calm an anxious mind, give energy to a depressed mind
– Bring nervous system back into balance
– Support emotional balance
• Allow yourself to receive the gift of oxygen
26. Mind Balance Yoga ~ Sara Morrow, PhD, LLC
Breathing for Emotional Balance
• Mouth breathing
– Is our “emergency” response
– Draws air to upper lobes of lungs
• Stress receptors stimulate Sympathetic NS
– Increases heart rate, respiration
– Body has to work harder to get enough oxygen - wastes energy
– Unfiltered, cold, dry air irritates throat - increases chance of infection
• Nasal breathing is most effective
– Draws air to lower lobes of lungs where:
• 60-80% blood cells are located - receive oxygen, exchange gas
• Parasympathetic NS receptors concentrated
– Quiets, calms, steadies the mind
– Relaxes - stress response/emotions/body/nervous system
– Lowers heart rate, blood pressure
– Filters, warms, moisturizes air into lungs - immune support
27. Mind Balance Yoga ~ Sara Morrow, PhD, LLC
Breath and Mood
• Breath patterns vary according to emotion
– Anger = short and quick
– Fear/Anxiety = retain breath, irregular
– Sadness/Upset = long and deep
– Happiness = slow, relaxed, regulated
• Having people breathe in certain patterns induces emotion
28. Pranayama
Simpkins & Simpkins (2011) conclude that:
• Yoga breathing methods provide powerful interventions for deliberately
rebalancing an out-of-balance
• Autonomic nervous system affected by mental or physical problems.
