BODY TALK SYSTEM

The BodyTalk System

Below is more fascinating information on Body Talk
The body is a complex and amazing mechanism, with each of its systems, cells and atoms in constant communication. Unfortunately, the stresses of everyday life can compromise these lines of communications or overload the energy circuits. To address this, the BodyTalk System provides a simple and effective form of therapy that allows the body’s systems to be re-synchronized so they can operate as nature intended – and effectively respond to injury and illness.

The BodyTalk System works by first identifying the weakened energy circuits within the body. The practitioner relies on the body’s inherent knowledge of itself to locate the energy circuits that need repair by using a form of biofeedback, which is a subtle muscle-testing technique.

For every malfunctioning energy circuit found, the practitioner or client contacts the corresponding “points” with his or her hands. The practitioner then lightly taps the client on the top of the head, which stimulates the brain center and causes the brain to re-evaluate the state of the body’s health. The result is that the general energy balance of the body is greatly improved.

The practitioner then taps the client on the sternum to “announce” the corrected energy flows to the rest of the body. This is beneficial because the heart is responsible for communicating the state of the body’s health to the rest of the body. Stimulating the heart by tapping the sternum forces the heart to store the corrected energy patterns in the body’s cellular memory. This means that the body will remember these changes after the treatment.

The navel is then tapped out, this part of the body is considered to be the third brain.By tapping the navel, it appears that the changes become integrated at a "gut" level, becoming more fully embodied.  Because the body stores the changes made by the brain during the tapping process, this means that every formula or circuit that is corrected builds on the one before.

The BodyTalk treatment protocol is straightforward and requires no diagnoses. The practitioner relies on the guidance of the body’s natural wisdom to not only locate the weakened lines of communication but also to find the proper order in which they are to be addressed.

Just as the body heals a wound with a particular sequence of chemical reactions, the body wants to address all healing in a certain order. This concept is paramount in the balancing process to initiate the body’s ability to heal itself. The healing process usually follows rather quickly.

Breathing From the Heart

 Every meditation and spiritual practice encourages breathing from the heart centre.  You do not have to  necessarily have to meditate to  reap the benefits of connecting to your heart centre, but it is a fabulous way to start the day with or without meditation.   

Following a meditation with Tim Whild (Tim While Practical Ascension) he recommended repeating the following 3 times in the morning before getting out of bed and grounding.  This has been added to my other morning rituals. 

" I now request that my Heart leads the day and sets my Vibration"  so simple and works beautifully.

Talking from experience, being, and staying in my own Heart centre helps to  keep me centred and calm throughout the day, and in tune with my inner self despite all the craziness  that happens on a daily basis  in the external world at the moment.   Much easier to observe from a distance and not absorb, brings clarity to anything that may be causing anxiety, also raising your vibration.

For me, personally,breathing through my Heart centre allows me to stay connected to source and my Higher Self, my spiritual team.  The heart centre is love and connection to all life, nature, and the Universe.  

Remembering to reconnect throughout the day (easy to get caught in the drama happening externally) can keep one free from anxiety, just stop,hand on heart and breath.  Conscious breathing is something we all take it for granted,  breathing consciously can have amazing benefits.

The Heart centre is love, the Christ self,   Love is the way home, and only one breath away.   

Try this and see how it makes you feel.

LOVE AND ALL IT'S VARIOUS FORMS

 Love appears in our lives in many different ways.   When love is mentioned we all tend to think of romantic love, the dreamy dating type of love.    Romantic love often fades when too many expectations are placed on the relationship, or when someone we feel we love develops what we consider to be flaws, they do not respond or behave as we believe they should.   We all have flaws,  we all have things we do, or say, that irritate our partners, friends, family etc.   True love romantic or otherwise is learning to accept that we all do things that irritate and annoy people, love is living with that, not trying to mold the person into someone one  you think they should be, this always ends with disaster.

For me one of the most important  love is love of self.   This can prove to be more difficult.  Most of us are not brought up to love ourselves, put ourselves first, it's considered selfish.  As I gain wisdom with age I have found that it is essential to love oneself, to take care of your own needs before diving in and helping others.   Loving yourself is essential for a balanced, joyful life, if you do not love yourself how could you possibly love someone else. 

Loving yourself means accepting that we all have shadow sides, light and dark.  Loving yourself means accepting this, looking at the parts of you that you find really annoying and accepting this as part of your whole self.  

Loving yourself means loving your body, your vehicles and taking care of it, not selfish, vital for healthy living, taking time to do something that brings you joy no matter how small is loving yourself.  Saying no instead of yes when asked to do something, or go somewhere can be difficult at times  but it does bring  peace rather than spending days or weeks arguing with yourself for saying yes when you actually meant no.  If you are anything like me that leads to grumpiness.  This is a big one for most people, because we tend to feel guilty for not doing something  that someone else would like you to do.  Practice saying no to small things to start.  Love yourself enough to do what you want.  It is okay to love yourself.

You are your Own Guru

 What is a Guru

A Guru by definition is someone who is supposedly wise and all knowing, a person who has the answer to everything that requires adjustment in our lives.  Wrong!   In reality, while someone may impart guidance and knowledge it is based on their own experiences. It is your own responsibility to dig deep within yourself and face head on the things you need to, or wish to change, their guidance while well intended is what worked for them, we are all different and have different life dramas.

We all have the power to change our lives, not always an easy task and sometimes it can seem like a huge mountain to climb.   Events happen in our lives, good and bad, we tend to bury the bad things, store them and try to forget about them.   Unfortunately they always come back to bite you.    I am finding as I grow older (hopefully wiser) that it is better to face things head on and deal with them. I freely admit it is not always easy, but it does make one feel better, whether it is dealing with friends, family matters, or the day to day events that can throw us off, listening to your own heart is always the best solution.

Going back to the Guru,  you can be your own Guru, no, you are your own Guru.  No one knows you better than you do, your thoughts, emotions, triggers etc..  We all have our own unique life experiences, we all have the power and knowledge inside us to do anything we wish to, it has just been pushed to one side,forgotten, we constantly give our power to other people and situations, reclaiming your own power can be a challenge but you can do it. You are Powerful!

Our thoughts hold more power than you can imagine.   Our outer world is a reflection of our inner thoughts and feelings.   We all (me included) need to be more aware of our thoughts, good thoughts create wonderful experiences, and doom and gloom thoughts create more of the same doom and gloom.

At some point in your life some of you will have desired and wanted something, constantly thought about it, dreamed about it, and then it happens.    You made that happen, yes you!

When we were kids, we used to dream and live in a world of our own that was wonderful and magical.   Schools, sometimes have a tendency to squash our imagination, we are taught not to dream but to buckle down, do exams, try and pick a career at the age of sixteen, we are taught to blend in and not be our own magical self.  Who on earth knows (well maybe a couple do) what they want to do for the rest of their lives at sixteen.     There are schools out there that do encourage creativeness and individuality, Waldorf and Montessori schools do that more schools should follow suit.

I believe most of us would be much happier adults, if we had been encouraged to carry on dreaming, using our thoughts and imagination to create lives that are rewarding, bring joy, and are also the lives we want to live and not what other people have in mind.

We all forget that we have Physical, Mental, Emotional and Spiritual bodies, it would be much easier if we kept this in mind when making decisions.

Physical -   Does this feel okay in my body ( I get fluttering around my solar plexus when things are not right)

Mental -   Finding yourself changing your mind about the decision you just made.

Emotional -   How does this decision make me feel, brilliant or cranky, sometimes we make decisions based on what we think would make someone else happy and not necessarily ourselves (guilty). Are you respecting your own boundaries?

Spiritual - Is this decision in alignment with my spiritual path, will it bring joy, contentment and peace, does it lift my spirit.

No one can make life decisions for you, only you can do that using your own power.

You really are your own Guru.     Find somewhere quiet, relax, breathe and try and listen to your own heart.   For me personally, using my heart as guidance is one of the best things I have ever done.

So give yourself a break, look in a mirror and feast your eyes on your Guru, you!

BENEFITS OF FACIAL GUA SHA

 As  a Face Yoga Teacher I am always interested in investigating and trying out new methods to bring brightness to my complexion.    I have now been using the Gua Sha method for over a year along with Face Yoga exercises, the results are fabulous

Facial Gua Sha is a simple and effective anti-ageing beauty technique from the Far East aimed at enhancing the look and feel of your face totally naturally.  It involves light scraping techniques on your skin to help enhance and rejuvenate your face and help to combat and prevent wrinkles, eye bags, crow's feet, facial lines and other signs of ageing.

A great book to purchase is Clive Witham, Facial Gua Sha, the routine is quick and simple

I have a Jade Gua Sha tool, but you can use your finger and thumb, a spoon.  The Jade Gua Sha I purchased from Amazon and the quality is really good.
