📍South West Rocks
And those are my toes… top spot to watch the waves, feel the grass.
A good day of reminding myself that I genuinely love doing Bowen Therapy. The cafe chats, the clothes stores, the mechanic, it comes up in convo, that Bowen …. is what I do.

And when asked what’s it good for … my answer was it’s for whatever your nervous system needs.

Not sleeping? Bowen.
Overthinking? Bowen?
Anxiety? Bowen.

💙Bowen brings you to the now. That’s where you will find your peace.
Same for me too✨

Bowen Therapy releases tension and emotions.

Beware... it may cause giggling 💓

My son experienced this the first time I ever did Bowen moves around his diaphragm.

I’ve had other people have a good giggle in their car after a session … wondering what’s going on😂

Some have had a good cry
Some have had eyes wide open at a moment of clarity.

Everyone is different💓
Everyones diaphragm benefits with better breathing💓
Everyone’s Bowen experience is different 🙌

Pressing the Pause Button for a week or two on Bowen Therapy.
💫Filling the time with my sons, solo road trip, music, family and friends, a balcony with a view and really good blanket! ✌🏼

This was from a few years ago - a dad came to talk to the class about his new book.
Of course I asked what the book was about…. my son said hang on mum, it doesn’t matter.
He told me these three things & because I was making dinner, rushing around I asked him to write it down knowing I would forget it and let it get lost in the evenings happenings.
So grateful he did💙
Children do listen💙
Words matter, actions matter💙
Freeing Palestine is just the beginning💫🍉

Fighting autopilot can look like this
…. crystals in a wonky and too busted to wear necklace with some leaves 😂

Playing with your senses.
My smell is my big one … I LOVE rosemary.

What does regain your senses mean?
To regain one’s good judgment or realistic point of view…become reasonable.

Just play🙌🏼

I may not be the most social person - but I’m lucky to have marvellous conversations with clients… they always start from the smallest comment and just grow.
Bowen sessions are the convo before and after … but the Ionic Foot Detox’s…. I’m having a great time🙌🏼

This week and next weeks schedule…. Bowen is on and the kids are back at school! Yay!

Just wondering ….

22/04/2024

How did my Bowen session help me?
💧emotional release (teeth surgery is no joke!)
🙌🏼 shoulders feels better (I was in protection mode I guess, they just feel relaxed)
⚡️slept better than I have in weeks.

If you see a bird in all black walking barefoot around the oval …. Yeah that’s me💫

When the words flow just like a session ….🙌🏼

"Why did my shoulder get better when you fixed my sciatic pain?"

People often present for Bowen Therapy with both sciatic and shoulder pain, and choose as their priority to have me focus on their sciatic pain first. It is a common theme that correcting the sciatic problem will correct the shoulder issue as well.

In my work I look at many of the systems of connections that are within the body, and choose to work with structures accordingly. Two of these connections I use are the scientific fascia lines (Thomas Myers' Anatomy Trains) and the energy based meridian lines (from Traditional Chinese Medicine).

In the case of the connection between sciatic pain and the shoulder, I often refer to the Pericardium Meridian, which travels through the front of the shoulder, down the inside of the arm to the palm and the end of the middle finger. The muscles that stimulate this meridian are the piriformis, one of the gluteal muscles and one of the leg adductors.

A tight piriformis muscle is often indicated in sciatic pain, as it can squash the sciatic nerve which lies either underneath it or runs through it. The nerve can also run over the top of the muscle as well, in which case the tight muscle wouldn't impact the nerve at all.

By addressing and releasing the pressure on the sciatic nerve by using Bowen on the piriformis and gluteal muscles, I am stimulating the energy in the Pericardium Meridian which also relieves the shoulder issue. I don't even need to touch the shoulder.

It works both ways too. I recall one lady who came in with sciatic pain and she couldn't stand the thought of anyone touching it because it was so tender and sore. With "first do no harm" in mind, I addressed her shoulder in that first treatment and didn't touch the area of concern at all. Immediately after the session she felt a slight improvement in her discomfort, and during the week she got significant relief to such an extent that I was able to directly address the piriformis muscle in the second session. This cleared up the problem.

At the moment I have a few clients who are booking in regularly💐
Bowen isn’t a therapy that wants to continuously see you.
I always encourage clients to space out their appointments, let your body benefit but not rely on ANY therapy.

But hey, if it feels good, it feels good🙌🏼
and if I get to talk about bodies, reactions to Bowen regularly, everyone is happy! So thanks💐

I do love my Lion’s mane honey pearls! But what an incredible photo!!!!

Honey Pearls Crafted To Deliver A Whirlwind Of Potency 🌪️🌪️🌪️🌪️⁠

The body's natural digestive processes, particularly the stomach's acidic environment, along with the need for some herbs/extracts to be diluted in water prior to consumption, have the potential to significantly diminish the therapeutic potency of certain herbs. ⁠

Honey Pearls, on the other hand, were crafted thousands of years ago with this challenge in mind, offering us a unique solution...⁠

Unlike other preparations, these unique beauties don't require decocting and are optimised to reach the small intestine directly. ⁠

Made from premium raw herbs and meticulously rolled in honey to precise sizes, they are able to withstand the stomach's acidic onslaught, ensuring safe delivery to the small intestine where the therapeutic benefits are most bioavailable and swiftly absorbed into the bloodstream for a whirlwind of potency throughout the body.⁠

Honey Pearls may have been overlooked amidst modern cost-effective preparation techniques, yet we believe this oversight stems from a misunderstanding and neglect of ancient wisdom. We are here to preserve the legacy of Honey Pearls well into the future. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
