Reiki Treatments

Reiki is called Universal Life Energy because it draws upon the healing energy of the universe rather than the energy of the practitioner.

Reiki heals the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual bodies. It complements the healing properties of all modalities including orthodox medicine, natural therapies such as herbs, aromatherapy and homoeopathy, massage, psychotherapy and others and can be given in conjunction with any other therapy or treatment.

The energy flows through the Reiki practitioner and out the hands during the healing. The Reiki practitioner places hands lightly on the body in particular positions. Most people will generally  feel a sense of relaxation and well-being and may feel warmth from the hands of the practitioner.

During a healing session you will lie on a massage table fully clothed while the Reiki practitioner moves around you. The practitioner is guided by the energy flow to the areas most in need of healing. The Reiki energy is intelligent and will go where it is most needed. This may or may not be where you feel it is needed. In this way healing energy will always be received yet it may not be in the manner anticipated. Often times an emotional healing is necessary prior to physical healing and the Reiki energy will assist in this process. A willingness to be healed is necessary although it is not necessary to fully believe in Reiki for the energy to work.

The Benefits of Meditation

There are many different styles of Meditation which are usually techniques developed by diverse cultures and religions over thousands of years. Most major religions have a tradition of Meditation included in their teachings, as it is used for spiritual growth, but these days the benefits of Meditation are also being recognised in areas of general health and wellbeing.

One definition of Meditation states that it is “consciously directing your attention to alter your state of consciousness” Attention can be directed to almost anything, as a focus for the Meditation. These commonly include symbols, sounds, breath control, colours and spiritual thoughts. Meditation is not difficult but often needs practice.There are many styles of meditation at Shashara we hold weekly classes in guided meditation.

Traditionally Meditation was used for exploring higher realities and finding inner guidance and this is still one of its major focuses. Other benefits from practicing Meditation can include
Stress relief

Feng Shui

Feng Shui originates from and is practiced in China. this has spread to millions of other people who now firmly believe in it. These people say that their lives are controlled by natural forces around them. Although there are many schools of thought of Feng Shui systems, there are many factors that have a common trend in the use and positioning of many items changing colours scheme to mention a few.


A Feng Shui specialist may give many ways to improve your environment and create a harmonic balance in homes or even in businesses. They use five elements, xuan kong flying star, colour, positioning of furniture, simple remedies and cures for problem areas and many other practices beyond these. those who practice Feng Shui claim that it enhances and attracts good health, wealth and relationships.

Much advice has been thrown around, and it can be quite confusing to many on how to achieve this balance in you own environment. So I have taken a few of Feng Shui instructions and simplified them. You may want to try out to see whether it makes a difference to your life.

* Remove all your shoes and slippers and allow main door to be free and clear.

* No televisions in the bedrooms or cover it over with a plastic cloth when not being watched.

* No mirrors opposite or by the side of your bed.

* Get an indoor water fountain in your home, you can put this anywhere you like.

Spirit Guide Art

Spirit guide art is a form of communication passed down from spirits who wish to connect with the people they have chosen to work with, love and protect. Their messages and images are channelled usually through someone who is clairvoyant, clairaudient, or clairsentient.

Jennifer is a passionate artist and has intuitively been drawing since childhood. Spirit guide art enables Jennifer to channel a variety of images capturing expressions, emotions and usually intense colour all given by spirit.  

When the portrait is finished, you will feel the love and healing energy emanating from it because your spirit guide’s energy will be in the fabrics of the paper giving you a constant source of strength, peace and healing when you meditate with it or simply put your hands over it. The colours in the portrait will also play a strong role in assisting you to overcome any emotional blockages of attachments you may currently have. All you have to do is just meditate on and look at the picture.

Usually I will get a name given to me by your spirit guide but I cannot guarantee it as some guides feel this is not important or they may wish to encourage your self confidence to try communicating with them yourself.

Spirit guides are often as interested in communicating and establishing relationships with us, as we are with them and often do so without us even realising it! I am however certain there would have been times where you have wondered if there is anyone helping you, or when you have a quiet moment you suddenly get the answer you’ve been searching for. It may even come through T.V of a book, that sudden idea or inspiration is often how they communicate.

The guide that I will draw in the portrait is the one that your highest self will choose is fight for you at the time. I cannot guarantee that it will be a guide you already know, however there have been times when a few people have recognised the face in the portrait. 

Tarot

When giving a tarot reading, the tarot reader will use a spread of cards from the tarot deck. There are many spreads a reader can choose from, some are specific for different purposes, whilst others are for general readings. Spreads can involve drawing as many cards as the whole deck of 78, whilst a spread can also be just two, or even just one card.

The most common spread is probably the 10 card Celtic Cross Spread.

Together with the general and usually random selection of cards from the deck, a card might also be chosen prior to the reading as a representation of the person receiving the reading. This card is called the Significator.

The Significator card has its own position in some spreads, and in others it has no position at all and can simply be drawn or chosen from the deck before the reading.

The purpose of the Significator card is to help the reader focus on the person receiving the reading. The chosen card can be an indication to the reader of the person's character, or aspects of character and personality that are hidden. Such a card can also be chosen as a representation of the particular or specific issue relevant to the subject of the reading at this time.

As the Significator is normally used by a tarot reader to signify the character of the person receiving the tarot reading, it is not normally a randomly drawn card, although it can be. The court cards lend themselves well as representations of the human character and personality, because they are pictorially and symbolically human. An example is the Queen of Cups.

This Queen embodies feminine mystery, and exemplifies fragility and a keen intuition. Such a person will have a strange watery seductive power, and one not necessarily associated with great beauty. She will like the attention of others, while not attracting it overtly. The Queen of Cups is easily hurt, and will be inclined to seek solitude for protection.

However, it is not essential that a court card be used, as any card in the deck can represent a person.

As is true with many aspects of the tarot, there are no hard and fast rules concerning the use or otherwise of Significators in a tarot reading, and the tarot reader can decide whether to incorporate it.

If a tarot reader uses a spread that has a position for a Significator, the reader can choose to ignore this position, if they do not want to incorporate this element in the reading. If they do want to incorporate the Significator, they must select the card.

There are many ways to select the significant card, including matching a court card's physical characteristics to the subject of the reading, to selecting a card randomly from the deck.

How a Significator is chosen, or whether one is used at all, is up to the tarot reader.

Massage

Spending time behind a desk and repeatedly using the same muscles takes a physical toll. Sore, tight muscles can result from such repetitive tasks, or from anxiety, stress, and depression. Massage therapists have long treated their patients with an arsenal of techniques designed to relieve the burdens of tired, stiff muscles.

Massage therapists employ a diverse array of techniques to relax and rejuvenate the body. They nearly always use kneading techniques, and they sometimes employ methods that involve heat, vibrations, more forceful manipulations, and other proven ways of relieving tension. Medical professionals recognize the benefits of having one's soft tissue manipulated in such a way.

Oddly, stress and depression not only cause muscle tension, but can sometimes be alleviated by addressing the muscle tension itself. The combination of having the muscles worked loose and the assurance of compassionate human contact both work to relax the body and mind. Massage therapists have different kinds of licensing requirements depending upon the state and city in which they work. A properly licensed massage therapist is recognized as an expert in the field, capable of offering useful care to those in need.

Finding massage therapists in your area has never been easier. Therapists.net can locate licensed, professional, and available practitioners in any area. Massage therapy provides an affordable, healthy way to relieve the stress caused by work and life, and to treat one's body to some well-deserved relaxation. For those who have a bit much on their shoulders, Therapists.net offers a connection to relief.

Body Talk

So what is BodyTalk?

A healthy body relies on all the bodys' systems communicating effectively. Your Symptoms of Pain & Dis-ease are often a loss of this vital communication. Respecting your bodys' "inner intelligence", I am guided through the BodyTalk protocol, working in an order of priority to restore these lines of communication, quickly & easily - allowing your unique body to heal itself naturally.

What disrupts the bodies communication system?

Physical, emotional stress or trauma, surgery, the birth process, fatigue, dehydration, the incomplete healing of diseases, viruses, bacteria and other pathogens, and everyday stress on the body due to poor eating habits, lack of sleep and our very 'busy' lifestyles.

What happens in a session?

You lay down relaxed and you are fully clothed on a massage table. Through neuromuscular biofeedback (muscle reflex testing), I determine which parts of the body need to be communicating and then I begin to balance them by using gentle tapping on both sides of the head (brain) and then on the heart, while you do slightly exaggerated breathing. By tapping on the brain, we tell it to " learn" the newly corrected link and then on the heart - to remember it or "store it " (as we " know and learn things by heart").


Do you need to be 'sick or in pain' to benefit from BodyTalk?

No - Everyone benefits from raising their level of health . In fact I have many clients who come for their monthly 'Tune-Up" of BodyTalk.

Are there any side effects from BodyTalk?

Some healing symptoms may occur in certain cases. For instance, if a clients' body is ridding itself of a virus, flu type symptoms may occur until this process is complete. Symptoms could also appear for a short time after treating parasites, toxins, and emotional releases.

Is it safe for everyone?

As a Certified BodyTalk Practitioner I Do Not diagnose anything and Do Not prescribe anything - BodyTalk assists your body to heal itself naturally. It is suitable and beneficial for Everyone !

Also safe for women during pregnancy, newborns and the elderly.

Why BodyTalk will help you-

BodyTalk will help you achieve a better level or 'harmony' of health . This could help you have more energy, less stress, and you will be much happier.

What Is - Metamorphosis Therapy?

Trauma, pain, fear and other experiences long forgotten or suppressed are stored in our cell memory. Metamorphosis is a safe and extremely effective technique that is applied using a gentle touch on the spinal reflex points, releasing us from past trauma and  eactivate our inner capacity to heal and bring us to a more balanced state.

Because it uses the link between the gestation period, the spine and feet, the traumas and fears stored in the body from before birth can be helped to be released. This allows you to get back into gear with your natural rhythm.

Metamorphosis is suitable for anyone, from the pregnant lady to babies and the aged.

What to expect from a Metamorphosis session

You will receive a gentle massage/touch of the spinal reflexes on the feet, hands, back and head. Metamorphosis subconsciously bypasses the conscious mind and intellect. We use reflex points to reach the unconscious genetic and karmic patterns that permeate our cells at conception. Unconscious patterns are the root of all disharmony.  A session lasts for an hour and is non-diagnostic. Some people wish to talk specific problems and that is fine, but it is not necessary. Most people find sessions very pleasant and relaxing.

Who should receive Metamorphosis?

We are limited by what we believe and think.  Open your mind to possibilities –
and begin to create your life!  As we change, the world around us changes! –
Robert St John.  Founder of the Metamorphic Technique.

Journey

Have a Journey process today where you can be free from your emotional baggage & Transform your Life

What is Journey Therapy & ReaLife Coaching?

More precisely, what is it not?
It is not the who, the what, the where or the when of your story.  It's the ‘How Come?'

How is a ReaLife Coaching & Journey process different to any other therapy?

In your ReaLife Coaching session you see  ‘How come' you react the way you do to the challenges in your life.

A Journey process is a guided introspection where your own body wisdom clears out those limiting beliefs you have about yourself. It is not just in the gaining access of your suppressed cell memories, which keeps you from letting go of your past.

The real healing is in the forgiveness and releasing the negative belief about yourself.
