MIND BODY THERAPY
There are so many competing therapies, it must be stifling for some people.
Therapy for me is about finding ways to allow the body to release resistances that may present as stagnation or congestion.
If you can achieve this on your own, then you don’t require the help of an energetic therapist because when channels are clear the body can self regulate.
Life offers us many opportunities to self regulate and heal. Moderation in food and Regular movement are still the tenets of wellbeing.
There is a beautiful translation in Japanese for therapist “ one who waits with”.
It’s perfect in its own way. This is more for psychological issues than physical.
My style of work is dedicated to you letting go, especially the acute or chronic effects of mind and emotions that are held in the body.
This is because disease and illness is so often an accumulation of tension and congestion and mind and emotions contribute a lot.
It’s easy to feel tension in or musculoskeletal system, most of us will experience this periodically. But it’s deeper where the problems emerge.
It’s in the channels that are important as they link everything, fascia, organs, tissues and cells.
You might say that regular massage would be a great idea, and I would agree.
But also, the microscopic spaces between connective tissue need to be free of congestion, and that is where energy therapy comes into its own.
Because of the way our bodies are constructed in embryology, layered and folded, a river like channel system is present to deliver energy and fluids to the total organism.
It is within this energetic tributary system that so many illnesses get their footing. Congestion inhibits energy that is vital for repair, reporting, and strength and vitality.
It’s similar to how static on the radio wrecks a good song, so does static energy ruin our biology.
My type of work involves resonance balancing of bioelectrical energy within the microscopic and large bodily channels.
The same techniques are applied to organ and chakra systems.
The key expertise is often in the correspondences. Here is where a great knowledge of your body is paramount.
Why would I work on the legs or feet for a digestive issue? Because this is partially where the embryonic plane for the gut meets the surface of the body.
Specific points garner specific outcomes in terms of the harmony of the entire bodily function.
The major credit for mapping this amazing understanding of your body lies in the ancient past.
Very much knowledge has been preserved from Asia especially.
The Chinese, Taoists, Tibetan sages, Mongolian tribesmen and many many others all had versions of these understandings.
Other areas such as the Middle East, the Pacific, The Americas and European cultures also have deep historical relevance, but they haven’t preserved them quite as well as Asia.
Poverty probably played a part in China for preserving family held traditions. It was common to have specific knowledge held in family groups to help them economically.
Isolation played a part too, especially in Japan.
Yoga and acupuncture have bought us closer to understanding how to keep our bodies open.
because subtle closings like congestion or inhibition of vital Qi currents lead to illness formation.
Its the very subtly of this process that has eluded Western Medicine to a large degree.
Illness can start in the consciousness of a person, and contract and warp the mind.
The mind then has the same effect on the body.
In my practice I often ask the person “ who are you?” Just to jolt them consciously back towards awareness.
Knowledge of one self is a very powerful thing to have within consciousness.
Modern psychology has borrowed Mindfulness from Eastern practice with great success. And the root of Self Awareness lives within this process.
When we have a strong sense of self, we can give to others in a more holistic way.
And wonderfully the feedback loop becomes more nourishing for us as an individual.
