Energy Flows with Jackie

Mind racing? Shoulders up around your ears?

Some days it's all a bit much.

Worry about the to-do list, a low hum of fear about what's ahead, frustration when things aren't going well. When it all piles up, we can end up drained before it's even 10am.

Here's a simple Jin Shin Jyutsu hold to help you settle.

Thumb, index and middle finger hold (as I'm showing in the photo)

* wrap your right hand around the thumb, index and middle fingers of your left hand
* rest your right fingers across the palm side, with your right thumb on the back
* let your little and ring fingers relax
* exhale fully, letting go of the day's tension
* inhale gently, welcoming in fresh energy
* after a few minutes, change hands

In Jin Shin Jyutsu, each finger supports us with a specific attitude:
thumb helps to ease worry
index finger helps ease fear
middle finger helps ease anger and frustration

Holding all three together is a lovely way to quiet a busy mind, soften the tension in your head, shoulders and back, and lift that fatigue.

No equipment, no perfect quiet space. Try it on the couch, at your desk, or as you settle into bed.

Try it out this week and let me know how you feel in the comments.

If you'd like more support, I offer Jin Shin Jyutsu treatments in Maynooth, Ireland and remotely.

What would you like more of in your life?

I've been sharing these stones with my clients - and each time they pick one (without seeing the words) that resonates with them.

So many times, they've said - this is perfect, I've been dealing with this lately. Of course, maybe they're just being nice 😂 but my hope is that they draw strength and are reminded of those special moments and restful breaks during their treatments.

Having a touchstone can often help keep the relaxation going and extend the benefits of a treatment.

Have you ever received a lovely touchstone after a treatment?

I'd love to know what it was . . .

Have you seen anyone resting their hands over their eyes?

When I was first taught this, the only thing that came to mind for me was the three monkey emojis. 🙈🙉🙊

But as I kept listening to my teacher, I learned that this is a powerful way to
✔ support vision,
✔ calm a busy mind, and
✔ ease fears and insecurities.

I recommended this to a few clients recently, and they had great results. For example, one client felt calmer and clearer. Another client's eyes felt less tired after 15 minutes in this hold.

It's also a great resting pose when things have been too busy.

Sometimes it's the simple things that can make the day so much better.

Mystery hold - any suggestions how holding your hand in this position might support you?

If the answer isn't revealed in a comment from the audience, I'll post how it supports you later this week.

hint - which meridian/flow pathways are affected?

Can Jin Shin Jyutsu really be done online?

Yes, and it feels just as good as in person. Your body still harmonises, your body still softens, your mind still quietens. The only difference? You're curled up on your own sofa instead of my treatment table.

All you need is a cosy spot, a bit of quiet, an internet connection, and 10 minutes to settle in first. That's genuinely it.

Wherever you're logging in from, Maynooth or the other side of world, online sessions make it easy to fit a bit of calm into your day.

One of my favourite little rituals. 🦋

When I need to feel grounded and calm, this is what I turn to: crossing my hands over my chest and gently tapping, left then right - until I feel calm. Butterfly tapping.

Such a simple thing - and I love how much it helps.

There's real science behind why it works so well:

🌿 it connects the left and right sides of your brain
🌿 it quiets the alarm system in your brain (the amygdala)
🌿 it activates your nervous system's "parachute" - the parasympathetic nervous system

I love having simple tools like this in my back pocket - ones I can us anytime, anywhere, to feel more calm and centred.

These are the same principles I bring into sessions with my clients, to help:

🌸 calm the mind
🌸 relax the body
🌸 soothe the soul
