THE HARDSHIP OF THE EVACUEE FAMILIES
Many of us have been experiencing stress and anxiety over the course of the ongoing war in Israel, but the situation is much more magnified for those who have been uprooted from their homes. These families were forced to make an abrupt transition from living according to their daily routine (even if it had an occasional siren from time to time) to a reality in which loss of life and property and feelings of anxiety have become their central focus, resulting in great emotional difficulty. Furthermore, this situation where the family experiences these ups and downs has turned into a long-term problem.
TAKING A BREATHER BY CONNECTING WITH THE MELODY OF THE HEART
Kinor Lev is a patented therapeutic device which utilizes music that incorporates user-friendly biofeedback technology and has been used for many years to help hospitalized children and their families.
The technique assists in dealing with three main challenges:
- A feeling of a lack of balance stemming from an extended period of living away from home and the cessation of one’s familiar routine.
- Dealing with distress and emotional pain on a daily basis as well as a variety of uncertain situations stemming from the war, both on a personal and a national level, as well as the great difficulty in harboring these types of thoughts inside.
- Feelings of distress and helplessness due to not knowing how to effectively help family members deal with the psychological issues that they are experiencing.
Using the Kinor Lev technique assists in transferring the focus from tension and anxiety to that of release and relaxation, even if for a short time. This activity helps calm the soul and has an effect that lasts for hours.
Training in the Kinor Lev technique is not complicated and using the sensor and application is not difficult. Therapists who use a variety of treatment techniques have been trained to guide families in its use. After only a few sessions, the entire family will be able to use the technology anywhere at any time they choose.
By listening, breathing, and relaxing, affected families can do the best possible thing to help themselves – they can improve their mood and the moods of those around them, especially during these challenging times.
