Moving energy and freeing up inside

Energy and consciousness needs to be flowing



 Vitality and causes of energy loss
The life force can be blocked by emotional, karmic, family dysfunctions, psychic forces, the egos limitations.
An often neglected part of our healthy state is in the mind, ideas and consciousness.
Gerard can help to open the blockages to your consciousness and the energy in your body by opening the pathways

How does energy get blocked and our body suffer
If we have negative experiences or an emotional bad time in a relationship with a parent or a person then we can shut down part of our self. This may take the form of closed body posture, digestive difficulty, insecurity, anxiety, conservative attitudes and never trying new things etc .

How to clear the way for mental emotional and physical health
  •  massage and breath awareness
  • yoga and chakra awareness, work on the posture and energy centres
  • hands on healing and breathing
  • Tai Chi and Yoga
  • Spiritual mantra sounds to balance the vibration of the subtle body/consciousness
  • Teaching the person to see the connection between the emotional block in the body and its    response and the conscious link.
  •  teaching Meditation awareness



Time Period
To clear the way to increased energy and vitality can take some time and gradual awareness.  To achieve solid results the process must be gradual, steady and firm. 
When energy blocks release from the body they can be quick or gradual. It is best not to set limits on the process but to just open to it. 
Healing is an ongoing issue as we are always in change and flux. Healthy resolution is an individual issue and we must look at each person singularly.  The limits we put on the healing process are often misguided.

 But once the mind is open to shedding the block of held pain or disturbance and open to love then the healing begins. It is a gentle process and a lasting one.

Yoga asana neck and back



Yoga for upper body neck and shoulders.

Notes
When in the postures breath naturally.
Pay attention to the stress areas in your muscles.
Let go the pain...breath.
Don't over stretch and create more tension.
Relax your mind.
Sit quietly and meditate for some time after the asanas or lay on your back and focus on your breath.

Enjoy the quiet, carry the joy with you and give freely...with love Gerard

Lower back Yoga 1

Easy exercises to free up and to maintain a healthy lower back from Indian and Chinese yoga.


Causes of upper back / neck energy pain

Many people come to me with neck and back pain and a lot of it has to do with posture and normal habits that put stress on the body including ling periods on the computer.

These asanas are for releasing stressed and tired muscles and for improving your self awareness and posture.

Hints
Always do them gently and breath into the posture.

Do it in a open space with fresh air if available.

You can hold the postures for any comfortable length.

Practice before eating a huge meal preferably in the morning early.

I-Ching Chinese book of Change Readings
I Ching is the ancient book of divination used to aid in making important life changing decisions and planning for events.  We use coins and throw them 6 times and then consult the book after asking a question. The question should be clear and simple For example ; Should I travel to Paris on 16 August to see my family? The book works of the laws of synchronicity, that is all thoughts, actions and points connect in the universe and these points are affected by the law of Yin and Yang.

Cost $50 Usually btw 30 and 45min
