Hi, FB friends. Most of you I know from meeting you in my life. Some of you I don't know because you are a friend of a friend or you are my FB friend because you asked to be my friend to sell me something now or in the future.
So... let me introduce myself from my work life... I don't enjoy putting a title on myself, because I am me and I have a lot of changes in my life, but it is the easiest way to explain what keeps me busy and 'entertained' in life.
I am a professional Kinesiologist. I teach and practise Touch for Health/Kinesiology. I am a Brain Gym consultant and I teach that as well. I do acupuncture, EMDR, Neurolink etc. I am basically an energy workshopaholic to aim to be the best practitioner I can be for my clients.
I started with Reiki many moons ago, before Kinesiology and Brain Gym and I enjoy teaching Reiki along with more modalities.
I love organising free online events with random speakers to inspire others. I run a few community FB groups and I might volunteer here and there as I believe it is important to give back to the community.
Understanding the things I do in my life, has not been the easiest as I am a person that needs to experience things to be able to understand. Therefore to explain what I do, took some years to figure it out, how to explain the things I do.
So... Let's start with Kinesiology... What is Kinesiology in simple words without experiencing it?
Kinesiology means 'the study of movement'. Complementary medicine practitioners also use the term to describe a form of therapy that uses muscle monitoring (biofeedback) to examine what may be causing 'imbalances' in the body and attempt to relieve these imbalances.
If you had told me this 25 years ago, I would not have understood the above even though it is described in easy words.
I feel you need to experience Kinesiology to understand what it does for you. It definitely aims to reduce stress, anxiety, pain and blockages. Kinesiology may identify food intolerances and other imbalances in your system.
Over the years I have been trying to find the perfect spiel to explain Kinesiology and to my knowledge, there isn't a perfect one as we all understand things in our own unique way.
So... let's try to explain Kinesiology to a train driver.
I happen to work one day a week at a train station, so I got to practise. LOL.
"Kinesiology is kind of like being a train conductor, but for the body and mind. Just like you have tracks, signals, and control systems to keep a train running smoothly and on time, your body has pathways (called meridians) and energy flows that keep everything working right. Sometimes, just like with trains, things get blocked or misaligned, and the body doesn’t run as smoothly. Kinesiology helps identify and fix those blockages or misalignments by working with the body's energy systems, kind of like clearing the tracks and resetting the signals to get everything back on track.”
As a teenager, I wanted to be a hairdresser and perhaps secretly I still like to be one. This is how I would explain it to a hairdresser. What do you think?
"Kinesiology is like giving your body a perfect, balanced hairstyle. Just like when you are cutting hair, you look for balance, symmetry, and flow to create a beautiful look—our bodies have energy flows that need to be in balance for us to feel our best and have energy. Sometimes, stress or emotions can create ‘knots’ or ‘tangles’ in the body’s energy, making us feel out of sync and/or causing pain. Kinesiology helps to smooth out those tangles, restoring balance and harmony, kind of like you do when you make someone’s hair look and feel fabulous."
So... if you still don't understand what Kinesiology does, please let me know and see if I can come up with a metaphorical story for your profession.
Thank you for reading to the end and being involved. :)
