It was a joy and an honour to assist Kindy Kaur on her Shin Tai Advanced Central Channel course at the weekend. Wonderful to be with Shiatsu friends and kindred spirits as we deep dived, shared, learned together and supported each other.

Yes indeed, this is truly transformational bodywork which requires courage, skill, respect, fine listening, awareness and responsibility.

Kindy imparts this work from her heart - with great compassion, clarity, honesty, authenticity and integrity. With much love and gratitude to heart-centred co-creators ❤️🙏.

Shiatsu touch.

My client:
"I am generally overwrought, overresponsive.
Shiatsu dials it down. Recalibrates. I leave in a different state. Reminded of what it could be, this feeling."

I love tuning in and sensing the movements of the cranial bones in myself. It is self-care because it involves me gently engaging and listening to a rhythm within that drives my biological and energetic system, connecting the networks in my body and bringing ease to my central nervous system. It is also a balm that soothes my head when it feels tight and compressed by thoughts, life etc.

I am really appreciating this Light Body Activation podcast by Lynn Goodman (Shin Tai International).

It is a gem. Whenever I feel "lost" (the monkey mind that overtakes and overwhelms), I have a wish to come back to my body and follow these gentle meditative and proprioceptive exercises that help to support my nervous system and bring balance and ease to my physical body (physical structure, musculature, organs, glands, cells etc) and vibrational body.

You can listen on Apple iTunes.

🌎 Connecting for the Future of Shiatsu in Europe 🌎

🌱 This Saturday morning, some representatives of the European Shiatsu Federation (ESF), including President Susanna Castellani, met with Ivan Bel for a rich and inspiring exchange on the past, present, and future of Shiatsu in Europe.

🌱 The conversation highlighted the importance of staying connected—not only within professional associations, but across the wider networks that support and energise our field. Ivan shared valuable insights from his long-standing involvement in Shiatsu, offering a broader historical perspective and, importantly, a hopeful vision for the future.

🌱 Encouragingly, thanks to the dedication of passionate individuals like Ivan, Shiatsu continues to grow—not only as a complementary therapy, but as a practice gaining increasing respect, including within medical contexts.

🌱 There are exciting developments and events on the horizon—and we want to hear from YOU.

🌱The ESF offers a platform to connect, support, and amplify Shiatsu across Europe.

❇️We invite practitioners, schools, and associations to share their activities, successes, and initiatives ⬇️⬇️⬇️

What is Qi?

Qi is Life Force - the source of all movement and drives circulation.

Found some notes from my Shiatsu student days.

I sometimes do gentle proprioceptive stretches to help the joint pain in my left hip, pelvis, gluts and groin (injury from falling on ice a few years ago). I am also interested in bones and joint-related pain and injuries and support clients who present with these. Breathing elasticity into each stretch engages the muscles, tendons, ligaments, soft tissue and cells.

I am also familiar with isometric stretches but never thought to do them to help my hip and the exercises shown on this Best Pain Relief Techniques course by Saul Goodman, Shin Tai International have helped a lot.

After following the whole sequence of exercises (for the neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, ankles, and lower back) in this series, my cells are feeling more invigorated. I had been feeling a bit sluggish and I now feel enlivened, enthusiastic and engaged.

[NB: From Saul: The techniques shown on this course are for joint pain. If you have radiating pain, abdominal pain, or suspect the pain is from an organ (like a kidney stone), you must consult with a physician]

It also feels apt to be doing these exercises as Spring approaches. The energy of Spring is emergence, and a movement upwards and outwards, new shoots, ideas and creativity. Movement includes stretching and supporting joint movement too. Movement helps to shift any kind of atrophy, stagnancy and sense of stuckness that we may be feeling by encouraging flow and more ease in the system.

Learn a natural, DIY method to relieve pain while addressing the underlying cause of discomfort. Whether it's an aching back, tight neck or strained shoulder, this technique will give you relief within minutes so you can get back into your life!
