We have talked a lot about exhalation and breathing functions. Today we would like to take up a shorthand that can help us anywhere and anytime to strengthen and support our exhalation and breathing in general. Very helpful and supportive in these still wild times!

Our right hand rests on the left SEL No. 3 and SEL 11 and the left hand holds the ball of the right thumb. And of course everything is reversed for the other side of the body.

This shorthand also helps with all hormonal projects and all projects related to the lungs. It also helps with over-acidification of the body (the thumb controls the acid). So there is also a good current to purify the body in the springtime.

We wish you a lot of fun practicing.

With the first self-help grip, we help to reduce muscle tension throughout the body. Place finger or fingers or thumb on back of LEFT and RIGHT calf simultaneously, just below bend of knee (top of calves). Aids in revitalizing overall muscular tensions.

With the second self-help grip, we reduce tensions that cause headaches, tiredness and general tiredness. Place thumbs or finger or fingers on LEFT and RIGHT base of skull, either sitting down, standing or lying down. Aids in releasing tensions causing head, eye, general fatigue discomforts.

With the third self-help grip, we let the tension in the shoulders melt away. Fold hands (as in prayer) without tensing shoulders, relaxing the complete body. Aids in releasing tensions in shoulders.

We wish you a lot of fun while releasing tension….

This week we’re showing you a picture of Amanda Gorman, a 22-year-old US writer who read a poem at the inauguration of the new US President Joe Biden. The picture shows her holding Jin Shin Jyutsu Mudra No. VI during her lecture. Isn’t it fantastic to see something like that in public?

We introduced Mudra No. VI to you at the end of August and hope that you have already w0rked with it diligently.

Hold the ring fingernail of the right hand with the inside of the right thumb and the ring fingernail of the left hand with the inside of the left thumb. This mudra strengthens the breathing function and helps all ear projects. It also helps us breathing easier during sporting activities.

Have fun practicing Jin Shin Jyutsu!

“Because there is always light
if only we’re brave enough to see
if we are only brave enough to be. “

(Textbook 1 by Mary Burmeister, p. 34)

After all the feasting over the holidays, it is time to do something good for ourselves and to detoxify.

SEL 23 came into the universe with the meaning proper circulation maintenance what means it is important for the harmonious functioning of all circulatory systems (blood, salt, water, lymphatic system, etc.). If these cycles are not in harmony, sooner or later we can get serious projects. It doesn’t have to be, we have Jin Shin Jyutsu!

SEL 23 is also the only 4th depth “safety” energy lock. It supports and renews the functional energy of the kidneys and bladder. We can apply it to all critical labels and it is our main energy reservoir.

Quickie: We place the right hand on the right SEL 21 and the left hand on the left SEL 23 (on the lower edge of the left costal arch). This position can of course also be held in reverse.

Have fun practicing Jin Shin Jyutsu!
