Buteyko Breathing Method offers proven, safe and highly effective techniques to control asthma, and a variety of hyperventilation symptoms without drugs. The course illuminates the dynamics and physiology of breathing, and its importance and function in being and staying healthy. Students learn how to balance their CO 2 blood level and thereby increase their oxygen uptake within the tissues. Students learn how to modulate their breath to make their lives more nourishing, more comfortable, and more breathable. Common hyperventilation symptoms alleviated through the Buteyko Breathing Method include: asthma, anxiety, allergies, snoring, sleep apnea, insomnia, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, emphysema, stuffed nose, deviated septa, erratic breathing patterns, shallow breathing, shortness of breath, high blood pressure, forgetfulness, depression, irritability, eczema and angina. Techniques are effective with adults of all ages and children as young as four.

 
Classroom Assistant offers a review of course content and a context for leadership development in the classroom. Assistants receiving credit within the 1000hr program may be called on to lead movement skills, one and one instruction during massage trades, mini lectures, or group facilitation.   Assistants are also responsible for supporting classroom logistics and tracking the dynamics of the group. Assistants are subject to Instructor approval.
 
Clinic Supervisor builds on the leadership and instructional skills gained as classroom assistant. Supervisors oversee the student clinic, assessing client indications and contraindications, and coach students on technique and client intake process. Supervisors offer brief tutorials in between sessions addressing issues arising from the clinic sessions, including ethics, techniques and assessment.
 
Holodynamics: Unfolding Potential Offers information from the new sciences (Holographics, Quantum Physics, Information Theory, Developmental Psychology, etc.) in the context of transforming human consciousness. Learn how to use the new information to meet both the personal and community challenges we are facing in the world today. Explore the information systems ( holodynes ) that control human thoughts, feelings and actions. Learn how to access and transform your personal holodynes through a process called Tracking.
 
Holodynamics: Intimacy Offers processes for creating a quality of connection and authenticity in all one's relationships. Transform the information systems that control the way you relate to other people. Unfold the Being of Togetherness or inherent potential within your relationships, be it a casual acquaintance or your most intimate partner. Learn valuable communication skills for establishing trust, rapport and aliveness in all relationships.
 
Holodynamics: Shifting Fields Offers processes for shifting ancestral and collective fields. Fields are groupings or matrices of holodynes. Ancestral fields may span through multiple generations and often are imbedded in the genetic codes passed down from one generation to the next. Learn subtle sensing skills to contact the information systems carried within ancestral fields. Learn processes that embrace the strengths and transform the limiting influences of one's ancestral line. Learn to focus your consciousness outside of time and thereby relive the past and pre-live the future.   Transformation of ancestral fields occurs both on the micro level of the genetic codes as well as the macro level of the collective field within one's family tree.
 
Holodynamics: Potentializing synthesizes information in the first three courses. Potentializing embraces all life processes, all growth experiences, all activity, which releases and unfolds potential. Learn the six stages of potentializing towards unfolding the potential of any circumstance, course of action, relationship or system.
 
Hot Stone Massage conveys the basic principles and how-to of Hot Stone Massage for private practice or day spa setting. Students learn the principles of hot/cold therapy, indications/ contraindications and safety precautions. Students learn protocols for specific layouts, customizing sessions, selecting stones and creating a sumptuous spa experience.
 
Visionary Craniosacral Work I (a Milne Institute offering) prepares bodyworkers to interface with and enhance the rhythm of the craniosacral system using gentle contact on the bones.   The course offers 12-5 techniques using a process of gentle, sensitive finger touch to optimize the movement pattern within the body known as the cranial wave. Balancing the cranial wave also enhances the movement of cerebral spinal fluid, which can relieve a variety of symptoms including trauma, stress, headaches, tinnitus, sinus problems and TMJ syndrome, as well as give rise to deeper states of relaxation and revitalization of the body/mind. The course also offers process-centered experiences including meditation and poetry to connect students with their own “stillpoint” and capacity to sit in silence and deepen communication with self and client.
