Origin Wellness NY

Easier said than done, Leonardo! 😂 In a world that so emphasizes productivity, output, and busyness at all costs - we must consider how productive we really are when only half of our mind or body is fully present.

Come on by and start your weekend off right with some true self-care, relaxation and calm - the rest of your life will thank you for it!

Did you know?

Humans have meditated in one form or another for thousands of years. In recent times, scientists have sought to understand meditation's impact on our health and well-being. For example, studies over the last 30 years have shown that meditation can transform both the structure and functioning of the brain.

Moreover, meditation can reduce stress and help an individual become more aware of any conflicts they have in their own thinking. Other studies have shown that meditation can reduce inflammation and other biological stresses at a molecular level.

Origin Wellness has 4 secular mindfulness meditations to choose from, all developed by the Anthropedia Foundation: Silence of the Mind, Union with Nature, Cardiac Coherence, and Reaxising. Any time of day, you can practice whatever mindfulness meditation you choose.

The Cardiac Coherence meditation is extremely simple and focuses on increasing our awareness of a natural way of breathing and a calm state of mind that helps the heart to function optimally in a state of coherence. This state comes about when the two parts of our autonomic nervous system, sympathetic and parasympathetic, operate in harmony. The breathing exercise and the states of mind encourage by this meditation will allow you to manage stress effectively and feel a sense of calmness and vitality.

Come give it a try and find YOUR calm.

We wanted to share this praise for our Body Awakening class, offered each Saturday morning at 9:30am.

While you'll certainly feel your body working, it's not a workout class. It's more of a.. well, a body awakening.

One of our participants from last week noted that during the class, through some of the movements, she was able to lessen her own perception of physical pain because she was fully focused in a new way on her body's relationship to her environment, and the space around her.

We love to hear such positive feedback and hope you can come experience movement this way, too. DM us or call to book your spot at (845) 481-5316.

It's already that time - this Monday, Memorial Day, we will still be open 9:30am to 12:30pm!

Wishing everyone a safe and happy Memorial Day Weekend!

One of our members (an user!) sets aside her Saturdays to come enjoy some services, with the aim of relaxation and stress reduction. ☺️🪴🌞

While we can often FEEL the difference between being at Origin and being in our daily lives, and while we all know how important restorative time is, we’re often not sure how much we’re really getting. Just because we’re not working, doesn’t mean we’re not stressed and certainly doesn’t mean our body is recovering.

It is SO interesting to see how metrics like heart rate, heart rate variability and cardiac coherence measure up to our experiential data, and prove to us that we can only benefit from prioritizing our well-being. 📉

The first two slides are Saturdays - Origin days! This member enjoyed services including a Trilogy, Oxygen Boost, Neurofeedback, IonCleanse and IsoFloat across her two Saturday sessions.

The last three sessions are regular work days for our client. She works from home some days and goes in to work other days, but as you can see - some days have little to no restorative or even relaxation time. Despite not doing anything PHYSICALLY demanding during her work day, our client’s body and heart rate are responding in a way that indicates physiological stress.

Thanks so much for sharing this amazing data 📊 Whether or not you have a wearable tech device that measures your heart rate, like — we know the benefits this member experienced can happen for you, too! 🌟🥰

This class is designed to help you cultivate greater awareness of your body and grow in your relationship with it. To do this, we will explore a wide variety of exercises and movements.

Happy Monday, Kingston! Doesn’t that sun feel nice? 🌞🌷

Plants and flowers in the neighborhood are thriving and we’re all adjusting to these new warmer temps, which we hope are here to stay! 👏🏼 Take a walk around the block and see for yourself how nature has exploded into bloom! (Or just ask your allergies!)

Come join us for some cryotherapy to cool off, boost your endorphins, reduce inflammation and promote recovery!

And if your sinuses or allergies are giving you grief, relax in our Salt Room or enjoy some fresh and bioavailable O2 with Oxygen Boost!

Happy Earth Day!

One touch of nature makes the whole world kin. —William Shakespeare

Here's your daily reminder that you are not at all separate from our beautiful natural surroundings. We are inextricably linked to the natural world. Since the time of Industrialization, humans have felt farther and farther removed from nature, but the fact remains that we ARE nature. It is merely our perception that has changed on how closely linked our destiny is to the fate of our planet and fellow living beings.

Developments in information technology cause a great deal of stress to modern people, and controlling this stress now becomes an important issue. Here at Origin, we have over 20 wellness services designed to help you reconnect with the natural rhythms and cycles that sustain us and find a greater sense of calmness and self-respect.

Our innovative, technology-based treatments harness the power of nature to promote physical and mental wellness - we use technology to work with nature and create harmony, not oppose it.

How did you celebrate Earth Day? (Might we suggest a Union with Nature meditation out in nature? 🥰💯) We invite you to appreciate the wild wonders of our natural world every day, and know that you are a unique and important part of the ecosystem that surrounds us all. ❤️

In today's fast-paced world, finding a moment for ourselves—let alone to reflect deeply—can feel nearly impossible. It's easy to forget the importance of pausing and looking inward when our days are packed with endless tasks and notifications.

That's why we've dedicated this Thursday, April 18 at 6:30pm EST, to exploring The Lost Art of Introspection.

Led by Dr. Kevin Cloninger, this class is available via Zoom. It's an invitation to slow down and rediscover the enriching practice of introspection.

Whether you're struggling to quiet your mind or seeking deeper self-awareness, join us to learn more about this lost art and discover practical ways to incorporate introspective practices into your daily routine. These skills are vital for managing stress, enhancing relationships, and living a more fulfilled life.

Spring has undoubtedly sprung. If you've looked around in the Hudson Valley lately, you can see the gorgeous blooms on every street corner. And if you've taken a breath lately, you can just FEEL the allergens having a party in your airways! This time of year won't last forever, and while (like all seasons) it certainly has its beauty, sometimes we just need some relief from these pesky allergy symptoms.

We recommend the Salt Room, Oxygen Boost, and BioBalance as some stand-alone services to combat allergy season and give your body the support it needs.

You can also try a TRIAD (one of our programs designed specifically for Respiratory Detox and Allergy Relief!

Visit our website, www.originwellnessny.com to learn more about each individual service (especially BioBalance, which utilizes incredible technology to restore the body's equilibrium and promote relaxation and stress relief!)

We are beyond excited to announce our new class offering on Saturday mornings (beginning April 13th) at Origin: Body Awakening!

A big part of wellness is feeling alive in our bodies, experiencing real calm while still feeling vital, listening to the body's needs and responding to its signals.

Body Awakening is not just a class; it's a transformative approach to unlock your body's hidden potential.

A style of movement that differs from other somatic experiences, the aim is to cultivate a greater awareness of your body and improve your relationship with it. To do that, we will explore a wide variety of exercises and movements. From deep stretches to invigorating activities, each session invites you to rediscover your body and foster an attitude of kindness towards it and acceptance of it.

Perfect for all levels, it's a great way to start your weekend. Join us Saturdays, 9:30 a.m.-10:15 a.m. starting April 13th!

Call to reserve your spot or book through the app. Walk-ins are also welcome if there is space. Bring a mat!

Classes are open to anyone, so feel free to bring a friend! The cost of the class is $20 for non-members, 30% off for essential members and FREE for premium members.

Hope to see you there, and to move with you!

From April 1st-7th, solo services will be priced at just $20 and provider services available to members for just $35.

Good morning! (We know - already?) 😂

Many of us can feel that the artificial change of time Daylight Savings presents messes with our sleep, our mood, and sense of overall orientation to the world. But what does this sudden loss of an hour do to our bodies and our biorhythms?

Humans are inextricably connected to the cycles of nature; our organism evolved in tandem with the natural processes of Earth, from the length of the day to the quality of sunlight to the changing of the seasons. As a result, our biology expresses the same rhythms, like an internal representation of the external environment.

Our 24 hour cycle relies on light cues to remain regulated, and keeps us in harmony with our natural environment. Daylight Savings time disrupts this cycle by placing our light cues an hour later in the day. As a result, and over time, the disruption of our internal clock can lead to shorter sleep duration, increased incidence of metabolic disorders, cardiovascular issues, mood disorders, and even reduced life expectancy. ⏰ 📅 🌞 🌚

In fact, studies have found an association between the transition to daylight saving time and short-term risk of heart attacks, stroke, traffic accidents, emergency room visits, and serious mood disturbances. A lack of sleep caused by the time change can affect thinking, decision-making, and productivity. Fewer negative health effects are associated with “falling back” in autumn, though most people often feel sluggish and tired immediately following the time shift.

An important step in preparing for daylight saving time is obtaining quality sleep in the nights leading up to the time change. If you enter the daylight saving weekend already sleep deprived, it’s more likely you’ll have significant ill-effects. But we're already here, and the time has changed!

Come visit us at Origin and do some infrared treatments, or biofeedback - both can work to help normalize your circadian rhythms and harmonize them to the present. ❤️

Service Spotlight:
AIRWAVE MASSAGE

This powerful, full-body compression therapy encourages circulation and eliminates toxins and excess water, helping with weight loss and cellulite treatment.

Airwave Massage also benefits the lymphatic system - it cleanses the body and supports the collection of toxins from various organs.

In the blood's process of transporting oxygen, wastes from metabolism and dissolved fats enter the blood and lymph. These are transported to the kidneys, which filter and purify the wastes and then eliminate the toxins through the urine. If the lymphatic system weakens, these toxins clump together, resulting in edema. Thus, poor circulation can lead to deposition of toxins and fat, dull skin, acne, and so forth.

It's also SO deeply relaxing. The continuous, fluid movement of the compression from the toes to the ends of the arms has the effect of "putting you back in your body"--grounding you and calming the nervous system. It is so soothing that many end up falling asleep by the end of the session! 😍

Yes, Seneca, we agree!

Working to cultivate well-being in our lives encompasses much more than simply preventing its opposite, ill-being. Well-being and happiness can be as natural to us as breathing, we must only begin to walk on the path and watch it unfold before us. 😊

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and one of the most loving things we can do is take care of ourselves and each other. We've crafted an offer that's perfect for couples and friends alike to enjoy. ❤️

It’s been a while since we’ve shared about NeuroFeedback! This is a powerhouse service assisting with memory, focus, cognitive function, healthy brain aging, creativity, decision making, and mood support, including assisting with anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts, and so forth.

This amazing technology was originally created to assist in the field of neuroscience and psychotherapy, to help with anxiety and other mood disorders. You’ll find it’s not only relaxing but simple and playful - a sort of game for your brain.

The concept is simple: it is possible, under certain conditions, to change oneself in order to achieve better well-being. This is what the all new science of mental behavior and wellness reveals to us. It only requires a little help and that a few conditions are met. Based on information theory, Origin Wellness’ non-invasive neurofeedback can help you achieve greater well-being.
Our brain is the true conductor of our inner life. It helps us communicate effectively and interact with the world around us. Our brain has its own rhythms and needs, and we demand a lot from it every day, since our lives are busy and increasingly stressful—physically, emotionally, and socially. This is why our brain will greatly appreciate Neurofeedback. This non-invasive technique promotes better balance in brain function, which is indispensable for us to change our behavior. It also makes it easier to adapt to all the challenges of life, to ease tensions, and to find a new balance in a constantly changing world.

NeuroFeedback is available to Origin members and non members as an a la carte service; it’s also available as part of a program, or as a stand-alone service. Unsure what this means, or excited to find out more?

Give us a call or DM and we’re happy to talk you through what NeuroFeedback could look like in your journey to well-being!

POWER FITNESS 💪⚡️ and FIBRO DETOX

Ever worked out without moving a muscle, lifting a weight, or leaving your workout mat?

EMS (electro myo stimulation) provides an effective, fast workout using the XBody suit. This amazing technology uses electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contractions that closely resemble the muscle’s natural movement. The frequency and depth of these contractions have been studied and determined to target specific fibers, while allowing for customizations and adjustments for the client’s comfort and fitness level.

The goal is to allow all the muscle fibers to work by recruiting the max number of fibers at once, up to 100% of fibers - whereas in a high level athlete, usually around 70% are recruited. This burns a lot of calories in a short time, while boosting hormonal system function and muscle anabolism!

You can read more about Power Fitness as well as Fibro Detox, a special offering here at Origin using the EMS suit, on our website at www.originwellnessny.com.

BRRR. It's cold out there, and with more snow on the way (potentially even some later today!) you might find yourself needing to warm up.

As winter sets in, animals and nature usually slow down - but our hectic modern lifestyles usually steamroll on, without much rest or relaxation. What can we learn from how the natural world spends the colder months? How can we allow ourselves time to choose restoration, and listen to the needs that our minds and bodies are making clear, even if only in still small voices?

If you're desperately needing some warmth in your body and peace in your mind, we have plenty of restorative options ready for you to enjoy. Come enjoy some warmth and relaxation in the Infrared Sauna or Sensory Refresh. Find calm and coziness on the Far Infrared Mat, or get toasty with Light Boost.

These services won't only warm your body, but they work more profoundly to support increased circulation, act as feel-good mood supporters, reduce stress, harmonize your circadian rhythms, and assist on detox pathways.

Call us or book some services on our website - don't hesitate to reach out if you'd like to choose a few services, and aren't sure where to begin! See you soon! 🔥
