Rumi's Teachings- The new dimension to Polyvagal Theory - Approach to Hypnotherapy
Polyvagal Theory, developed by Stephen Porges, is a neurophysiological model that explains the connection between the autonomic nervous system and emotions. It describes how different states of the nervous system affect our emotions, behaviors, and social engagement.
Rumi's teachings can revolutionize Polyvagal Theory for Hypnotherapists
by emphasizing the importance of the heart and its role in regulating emotions and behaviors. In Rumi's teachings, the heart is seen as the center of emotions and spirituality. He encourages individuals to connect with their heart, to understand their emotions, and to cultivate compassion and love.
This connection to the heart is important in Polyvagal Theory as it can shift the autonomic nervous system from a state of defensive or immobilized response to a state of social engagement and positive emotions. Rumi's teachings can help individuals to tap into this positive state and to cultivate resilience, emotional regulation, and well-being.
Rumi's teachings emphasize the importance of connecting with one's emotions and inner self, and the power of the heart in promoting well-being and inner peace. To follow this teaching, one can practice:
Mindfulness and meditation: By being present in the moment and focusing on one's breath, one can quiet the mind and become more aware of one's emotions and thoughts.
Understanding emotions: Rumi taught that it is important to understand and acknowledge one's emotions, rather than suppressing or ignoring them. By doing so, one can gain insight into their motivations and tendencies.
Focusing on the heart: Rumi encouraged individuals to focus on their hearts and cultivate compassion and love. By doing so, one can release negative thoughts and emotions and cultivate positive energy.
Letting go of negativity: Rumi taught that it is important to let go of negative thoughts and emotions in order to create space for positivity and growth.
Connecting with the divine: Rumi emphasized the importance of connecting with the divine and seeking guidance from a higher power. By doing so, one can access a deeper sense of peace and understanding.
By incorporating these teachings into one's life, one can cultivate a greater connection to their inner self and emotions, and harness the power of the heart to promote healing and well-being.
By incorporating Rumi's teachings into their practices, hypnotherapists can offer a holistic and spiritual approach to emotional regulation and healing. Rumi's emphasis on the heart can deepen the understanding of the role of emotions and spirituality in the regulation of the nervous system, providing a new dimension to Polyvagal Theory and a more comprehensive approach to hypnotherapy.
