Sent as a gift from Japan to promote peace after the second world war, JIN SHIN JYUTSU is about harmonising who and how we are. In the Japanese way of "Art" it is an Art of Living, a tool to being 100% present in our own being with no hesitation, reservation, fear or resistance. Unlike the widely known martial arts, Jin Shin Jyutsu utilises only gentle touch to key energy centres through the body,
releasing areas of blockage to allow for free flow of life energy. The only known side effect of this free flow of life energy is healing, increased vitality and a more open and joyful attitude to life. It is possible to experience a Jin Shin Jyutsu hands on session with an appropriately certified practitioner, it is also possible to attend a workshop and learn how to utilise Jin Shin Jyutsu to empower yourself. Jin Shin Jyutsu (JSJ) uses hands "jumper cabling" to release tensions; these tensions in body, mind and heart 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 disharmonise the complete path or paths of the energy flow. Tensions in our thinking and feeling can distort the way we view the world, disharmonising our overall expression in the world and in our relationships. Through Jin Shin Jyutsu we gain more knowing of the Life we are; we gain more confidence of the capacity that is literally in our own hands. Jin Shin Jyutsu is an art not a technique: whereas a technique is a mechanical application, an art is a unique personal interaction and a skillful creation which connects through the personal to that which is beyond personal. This Art, a physio-philosophy, a physio-psychology and a physio-physiology is both beautifully simple and complicated. I love sharing my passion for JSJ with others. Sessions lasting an hour long are by appointment in Rondebosch or Fish Hoek. Hospital and home visits can be arranged where client is unable to travel. Teaching workshops are scheduled on demand.
