R–ECALIBRATE

Recalibration is about taking what you've learned from Reconnect and Audit to understand your patterns as well as your desires and needs and applying strategies to shift your emotional and energetic state. It's not about bypassing your feelings but rather working with them to create resilience and increased capacity for managing stress.

Using the Method we work with the arousal, or stress, cycle by learning to activate and deactivate the nervous system intentionally. We practice this on and off the yoga mat to expand the range of stress tolerance and increase self awareness during and after challenging situations. Making Rare Method a practice for stress preparation and stress processing.

On the Mat

You’ve Reconnected to your body and it’s sensation, taken a read on your current state and Audited what you need, it’s now time to Recalibrate. It’s time to Shift Your State. On the mat we use movement, breathwork, meditation and self-inquiry to work with what the body is expressing. For instance if you’re feeling dull and lethargic, a more active practice can help Up–Shift your state. And on the other hand, if you’re feeling anxious or frenetic, a slower more grounded approach can help you regulate by Down-Shifting.

Off the Mat

As we better understand our reactions we can not only learn self-regulation, but we can start to decode our needs on a deeper level. We can understand the deeper meaning and source of our behaviors and their emotional tethers. Using the Rare Method we can uncover the fears and insecurities that preoccupy us in performative, protective, predictive or paralyzed patterns, freeing us up to step forward into life as our unique, expressive, raw, real and RARE selves.
