We all have remarkable potential for self-healing, although sometimes it might be difficult to access it. The method of body-mind healing that I use enables a person to tap into this innate potential.
When we are able let go – even a little bit – of our habitual tensions and holdings-on, both physical and emotional – our bodies know exactly what to do, and the healing process begins.
In my Shiatsu work I aim to create a supportive space in my treatment room in Croesor, North Wales, in the heart of the Snowdonia, where one is invited to deeply relax, let go of usual tensions and worries and come to meet one’s self – one’s own body, feelings, the space of one’s mind and heart.
When we are able to meet ourselves in this way, with kindness and without judgement – something magical happens. Sometimes clients describe the experience as “a sense of coming home” or “coming back to oneself”.
I have found that working with the body provides an excellent way of working on the whole of one’s being.
Often I use self-reflective exercises, mindfulness guidance and counselling to complement the bodywork. This depends on each person’s unique needs and circumstances at any given time.
“Being kind to ourselves is a beginning of true healing.”
