Rachel Murphy Shiatsu

Rachel Murphy Shiatsu Shiatsu is an ancient Japanese hands-on healing therapy that works with the whole person, using meridians and acupressure points.

Shiatsu supports a sense of general wellbeing; it helps to relieve stress and tension, improving vitality and health and strengthening the body, mind and spirit. It can help in a wide range of conditions – from specific injuries to more general symptoms of poor health. Through our session, we will explore what your body is calling out for. Discomfort, tension and pain are often ways our bodies communicate to us. Shiatsu is a way of exploring that pain and finding where you may need to be held, met, challenged or supported. I am a fully qualified Shiatsu practitioner from the Bristol School of Shiatsu, and have been practicing in the UK for the past three years.

It’s not always in the big moves and stretches that healing happens, often it’s in the holding and the subtle allowing for the receiver to feel they can release ✨

It was such an honor to share Shiatsu theory and practice with these beautiful wahine!
I was lucky enough to be invited to the Whaioranga Trust on Thursday to share some of my knowledge. I wasn’t expecting such a beautiful warm welcome and such open heartedness. This place is truly unique and special ✨
I look forward to future collaborations!💖

We will learn more about the late summer earth element energy and how you can support that in yourself. There will be qi gong, meditation, connection to the earth and nature, delicious food and a chance to give / receive Shiatsu (no experience required).

I only offer a few spaces to keep these days special and intimate. DM me if this sounds like something you’re being called to 💛

❤️Heart Protector❤️
I just love this meridian, I find it so fascinating what impacts how we can open and close our hearts and who we choose to open it to. It feels wonderful to me to be in a state of open-heartedness, but sometimes mine opens too much and I feel fatigued or even a painful bruise left behind in my heart. Sometimes it’s stuck closed and I can isolate myself from others. Anxiety and heart palpitations are also familiar symptoms. How about you?

We are still in the season of the Fire element and too much heat can have an impact on the health of our Heart Protector. It’s the summer season of excesses, when we are generally more willing to connect and communicate with others, but can have a tendency to overdo it too. Listen carefully to what your body needs…. Some cooling down? A social break? Rest?

Let me know how you feel the state of your Heart Protector is right now. How easy is it for you to give or receive love? Does that change? What gets in the way? 💖

Some great things to ponder as we approach the 17th Feb….

I’m leaving comparison and judgement (or others and myself) behind with the snake 🐍

Welcoming in more love and acceptance! ❤️✨ 🐎

What will you leave, my love?
What will you begin?

It is almost time for the year of the Fire-Horse and I for one am welcoming with open arms, an open heart and an open mind.
