Jin Shin Do: Unlocking the Body's Healing Power
By Mei Lin ZhangLength8h 32m
About this audiobook
Jin Shin Do is a form of therapeutic bodywork that combines elements of acupressure, Taoist philosophy, and Japanese massage techniques. It was created by psychotherapist Iona Marsaa Teeguarden in the 1970s, based on her training in traditional Chinese medicine, Zen shiatsu, and other healing arts. At its core, Jin Shin Do is based on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine, which views the body as a network of energy pathways or meridians. According to this philosophy, when these pathways become blocked or imbalanced, it can lead to physical, emotional, and mental health problems.
By applying pressure to specific points along these meridians, practitioners of Jin Shin Do aim to release tension, improve circulation, and promote the body's natural healing processes.
