    Acupressure is the use of the acupoint system and meridians using physical touch for re-balancing energy and healing the body.  It has many forms including Jin Shin, Tui Na, and Shiatsu.  While acupuncture works with metal element, acupressure has techniques to embody the energy of all 5 elements: fire, earth, metal, water, and wood.

    Jin Shin acupressure is with light touch on the points.  It provides supportive energy to the body and the organs, unblocks stuck energy, and works with different types of therapeutic pulses found throughout the body. 

    Tui Na uses a large variety of techniques and styles of working with the points and the meridians to rebalance the body and its meridians.  Tui (push) Na (pull), uses many types of touch in specific and general ways, tends to be activating, energizing, uses a base of rocking the body for soothing.    

    Shiatsu is rhythmic pressure along the meridians and throughout the body that ideally follows the breath, applying pressure on the out breath.

Mindful Evolution Meditation Classes

  • This class will combine Healing Imagery, Self-Introspection Imagery, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) techniques to work on our mind and bodies in various ways.  Healing and Self-Introspection Imagery are based on Barbara Bennon styles of working with the mind and chakra system.  MBSR, are ways we can attune to ourselves and embody the principles of mindfulness and heartfulness for well-being and stress reduction.  NLP is designed to break down undesirable patterns, and re-create new neural pathways for our mind to serve us better in our daily lives.  

    Imagination registers as reality to our brain and body.  Working with imagery can have profound effects on our brains, bodies, and lived realities.  Each class will consist of a series of shorter guided meditations along a common theme to serve us in a specific purpose.  For example, we may have a class for seeing/healing the body, working with greater truth, working for havingness and reception, developing our true selves, healing relationships, seeing mindfully, learning to listen to our heart-mind/Intrinsic Cardiac Nervous System, learning to listen to stomach and gut/enteric nervous system, working with protection and strengthening, looking at and bringing sobriety to addictions, removing trauma from our nervous system.  You are welcome to request a class theme as well.

  • Mindfulness always includes heartfulness and is not meditation.  Meditation can be mindfulness-based and is considered a formal practice, however Mindfulness can also be informal, a consistent practice in everyday interactions and consciousness. 

    MBSR has been developed through the understanding of neurobiology, and how to have healthy functioning of our brains and nervous systems.  It is the baseline of all mental health, and is simple to embody. Embodying the Mind-Heart trait, allows for greater awareness of your operating systems in the social environment, flexibility, adaptability, clarity, regulation, discernment for action, balanced compassion and problem-solving skills. 

    It enhances any other therapies by giving the tool sets to manage any challenge in the internal or external world, knowing the best ways to orient oneself, check in with your systems, make adjustments, and process important information to return to a state of peace, neutrality, and equanimity for the most optimum handling of matters and achievement of goals. 

    MBSR classes are available as individual classes or as a 6-week program with homework, 2 hours per class. 

    I can teach three age ranges:  6-12 years, 13-18 years, and adults 18 and older.

    Private Sessions: 1000 baht/hour

    Two hour Group Class: 500 baht per person
