Why I Love the Self Help in Jin Shin Jyutsu
Our natural state is happiness and joy.
You wouldn’t think it, would you? There is so much suffering in the world.
When I first became aware of the power of Jin Shin Jyutsu, I wanted to ‘go out and save the world’. Funnily enough, there were many that don’t want to be saved, aren’t ready to be saved. And quite frankly, TRYING TO (little finger attitude) help THEM was distracting me from HELPING ME. I realized after many years of offering help (and of course I still help when help is asked) that making a difference starts with ME.
To make a difference I need to start with ME
If I want my world to be a certain way, then I need to demonstrate it in my human BEINGNESS. I need to be the example. I want my life to be the blessing and the adventure. I want my life to BE FUN. So no matter how noble my desire to help others, help has to start with ME.
Self change starts with self study
Mary Burmeister, a foremost teacher of Jin Shin Jyutsu says: “Self change starts with self study.”
In essence, to KNOW others, I must KNOW MYSELF first.
The gift of Jin Shin Jyutsu –the Art of the Creator through the Man of Knowing and Compassion – is that when we forget the message that LIFE IS MEANT TO BE A BLESSING, AN ADVENTURE AND FUN, we have this gentle, dynamic, wonderful universal art, available to each one of us. It can harmonize us and return us to our natural state of JOY and HAPPINESS.
This is also why I love SELF HELP:
Because it is EMPOWERING. It gives me back control of my being and takes me back to MYSELF.
