Personally I do Jin Shin Jyutsu self help on a daily basis, take morning walks with our family dog & do my best to squeeze in a morning meditation, once everyone is gone for the day.

EXPLORING CHAKRAS-July 23 & 24 2011, Lafayette, La.
When our chakras (energy centers) are in balance, we function at a much higher rate of health and well being. An exploration of the energy field will assist in learning about any imbalances that may contribute to problems in our lives and how we can return to a state of balance. This knowledge is valuable in understanding the mind, body connection with ourselves, our families and our clients. Aura photos will be taken during the workshop and information about what the colors mean for you will be available. An energetic technique using light touch will be learned during this class.

the 2 are nearly always united........at least we are moving in the right direction:)

I do traditional Asian Bodywork. While in Asia there are energy forms such as Qi Gong that are only energywork, bodywork is never without energywork. In Asian systems it just is not considered that the body can be worked without Qi. Unless bodywork is done very mechanically it is also energywork. In Asian Bodywork positions and applied pressure are used to aid the flow of Qi and unblock congestion.

The Hatha Yoga posture Trikanasana, or triangle is helpful for limbo-pelvic issues, including short tight iliopsoas and quadratus lumborum. The posture has several variations, so try them. Or, try side-lying with a bolster/pillow helping to support the space between the ribs and pelvis stretching the other side.

You could also try stretching your psoas. if you are by yourself it is easiest to do this on your massage table. Make sure it is wide enough that it won't easily tip to the side. You can also do this on the bed where you sleep. Move way over to the side of the bed so your hip is just on the edge. Angle your body slightly onto the bed or table. Then let your leg dangle off the edge of the table, you can even pull your heel towards the floor if it feels okay. I suggest looping a belt or rope around your dangling food so that when you are ready to bring your foot back up to the surface you can use the rope to assist rather than activating that muscle you have just stretched out.
good luck

Hi Laura,
Lying on the floor with tennis balls on both sides of the spine will help to loosen the muscles. Work them up and down the back. Lying on your side you can position ballsjust above the pelvis to help loosen. They can even be used to work the subscapularis. Smaller balls work better for the ribs. Good luck.

Hi Everyone! I'm so excited about my new research paper on the link between zodiac signs and energy work! I was hoping to conduct a survey to see if I can find statistical evidence to support my theory! Please help me by taking 5 minutes to complete the survey! The explanation of the study is on the first page. I REALLY REALLY appreciate it and it would be SO helpful to me! :) Thanks a lot! www.surveymonkey.com/s/V9PT2Y8
