This 5 Minute Exercise You Can Do With Your Hands Anywhere Will Boost Energy & Balance Emotions!

JIN SHIN JYUTSU –  Is the Art of releasing tensions which are the causes for various symptoms in the body.

Our bodies contain several energy pathways that feed life into all of our cells. When one or more of these paths become blocked, this damming effect may lead to discomfort or even pain. This blockage or stagnation will not only disrupt the local area but will continue and eventually dis-harmonize the complete path or paths of the energy flow.

It is a simple touch therapy that you can perform on yourself to boost energy and balance your emotions through stimulating the meridians in your hands.

The technique is simple and you can do it anywhere:

– Our fingers are connected to different organs and emotions/attitudes. Check the picture and decide whether to focus on one area of trouble or to do a whole body balance.

– Hold the finger correlating to the emotion you want to calm, or the organ you want to heal for 3-5 minutes while breathing deeply.

– If you want a total body harmonization you can go through all of the fingers of each hand.

In a study at Markey Cancer Center patients were able to feel positive benefits, no matter the stage or types of cancer. They reduced stress and nausea after each session.

I even remember as a child, holding my thumb made it so much easier for me to fall asleep.

It’s no strange why the universal language is the middle finger.

Foot Chart

Reflexology charts show the location of reflex points on your feet, hands and ears. There are so many and different types of charts: Reflective, Acupuncture, Ayurveda or Indian, Spiritual and Artistic. Some charts are based on the practitioner and their experience in the field.

In my practice I follow the chart related to my certification and provided by my professor very similar to the chart below:

I also found this Foot Chart online very interesting and easy to understand.

No matter which chart you choose always Reflexology will produce a positive and effective result since you follow the guidelines and perform the technique correctly.

Welcome to The Wonderful Feet World!

Reflexology  is considered both an art and a science – an art because the skill and technique of the practitioner can affect the result, and a science because it has a physiological and neurological basis.

It is not a belief system, but a health practice without contraindications. This is a safe, effective and reliable process, and a no risk therapy because it is persuasive, not invasive.

In general terms, the benefits of Reflexology are:

  • Reduction of stress and tension
  • Improves nerve & blood supply and promotes the unblocking of nerve impulses
  • Helps nature to normalize because the feet and hands help set the tension level for the rest of the body, they are an easy way to interrupt the stress signal and reset homeostasis, the body’s equilibrium.

Remember: A reflexologist cannot diagnosis or prescribe. Reflexology is an adjunct to medical help not a replacement for it. You should seek medical help if you have an urgent or acute problem.

Visiting a Reflexologist is an excellent way of restore balance
to body and mind enjoy this ancient natural practice to claim your health and well being!
