Mental health treatments can be effective. It can help someone live a fulfilling life while managing a disorder they might be dealing with. This guide will discuss how New Waters Recovery offers holistic treatment plans for those seeking mental health recovery.

As holistic treatment is growing in popularity, we want to be at the forefront of providing it for those who are struggling mentally. We believe that the methods are proven and already effective for those who want to manage their mental health on a regular basis.

Let’s give you a peek at what is to be expected for holistic treatment plans so mental health recovery is more than possible.

The practice and benefits of mindfulness

One of the cornerstones of holistic treatment is the practice of mindfulness. This includes meditation and breathing exercises to help increase awareness. For example, a person can perform a breathing exercise for approximately five minutes.

It can be as simple as breathing in through the nose and out the mouth. Meanwhile, they must focus on the breath while not allowing them to focus on the thoughts that may be wandering around at the time.

This can be practiced at least once per day. They can do it multiple times throughout if they seem to be stressed out and want to stay grounded and balanced. Mindfulness improves mental sharpness and helps people become less stressed.

It is proven that mindfulness meditation is a great way to cope with stress. Overloading amounts of stress can trigger potential mental breakdowns, which in turn can cause disorders.

Holistic treatment provides various therapies

Those who undergo holistic treatment will be able to use different types of therapies that exist. This includes but are not limited to the following:

Equine therapy

Better known as horse-assisted therapy, this is designed to help individuals develop a relationship with horses while they deal with their mental health. It is believed that horses will help aid a person in developing a more positive self-esteem and bettering themselves in terms of empathy.

It’s also used to help aid a person through the pains related to their trauma. This includes the feelings of anxiety and fear they experience on a regular basis.

Recreational therapy

This focuses on both mind and body. Regular exercise is known to lower stress levels and even anxiety. Recreational therapy also includes other types of physical activities including individual and team sports.

Recreational therapy can also be non-exercise related. Such activities include but are not limited to dance classes, puzzles, games, arts and crafts, and even group outings. Therapy sessions can be done individually, but most of them are often done as a group.

The purpose of recreational therapy is to help build up a person’s communication skills, their confidence, and reasoning abilities.

Art therapy

This is one of the more common and effective forms of holistic therapy. One of the major cornerstones of art therapy is allowing people to express themselves. Creating art in a healthy manner helps people create something while exhibiting positive emotions.

Art therapy can be done in many forms. These include but are not limited to painting, drawing, photography, sculpting, and creating music among others. Many of the holistic treatment centers will incorporate art therapy as one of their options.

Art is seen as one of the best ways for a person to express themselves, whether it’s for better or worse. There is no greater way to invoke emotion than to use art as a form of therapy.

Yoga

Yoga is considered one of the best forms of therapy since it aims to heal your mind and body. It’s also a great way to heal someone spiritually. Yoga can promote calmness in your mind while providing you with excellent physical health benefits including weight reduction, improvements in cardiovascular health, muscle strength, and flexibility among others.

Holistic treatments have mental and physical health benefits

While there are conventional treatments for mental health, holistic treatments can be effective. One of the major arguments for holistic treatment states that if the mind is in the right state, so will your physical body.

Holistic treatments tend to prove that the mind and body can work together as one. Therefore, if a person is less stressed, it won’t be less taxing on their body. Likewise, mental stress can also lead to physical issues throughout their body including increased blood pressure, increased heart rate, and also general discomfort in various parts of their body.

Holistic treatments for those with or without mental disorders can be beneficial. Not only that, they are also easy to maintain while achieving a high level of effectiveness. It also requires no medication (which is common in conventional treatments).

Some may even believe that medication treatment may do more harm than good. Therefore, alternatives can be considered. Holistic treatment may be one of the better alternatives since it requires more hands-on activities in lieu of regular medication.

A person who is currently being treated for mental health disorders can simply request a change in treatment as an experimental purpose. If they see the benefits of holistic treatment, they can continue to follow such a plan. However, they might remain on medications to help control their symptoms at the discretion of their doctor or mental health therapist.

Because of its proven effectiveness, holistic treatment for mental health can be a common thing.
