Check out the chart below and see what parts of your body tend to hold specific emotions and patterns of belief.  Most of us can easily relate to how too much stress and responsibility gives us sore shoulders, but look more closely and see what else your body might be signalling to you. Ring any bells?
The first step to wellness is awareness. Being aware means that you're not ignoring your body's signals until the pain becomes so loud it's impossible to ignore. (Been there, done that?) The next step can be choosing to release the patterns creating the issue. This can be as simple as consciously affirming to release the held emotions, or it may require acceptance of past or present issues, it may include forgiveness of others and/or self, and it will usually always require establishing new patterns of thoughts and behaviours. For example, saying to yourself, "I am enough. I love and accept myself exactly as I am!" If this feels weird or difficult don't worry, it gets easier with practice!! Put reminders in your home as a cue to remind yourself of your new direction and thought patterns. Another terrific way to let go of limiting beliefs and emotions can be through yoga, meditation, and body mind therapies, such as Jin Shin Do® Bodymind Acupressure®. You don't have to do it alone!!! Start by trying this, "Every day and in every way I feel stronger and more balanced in my body, mind and spirit!!"

Chakras are vital energy centers in the body that influence the our physical, mental and the spiritual self. Although there are many chakras in the body, there are 7 main energy centers that are of special importance.
Chakras, meaning "Wheels of Light", can be described as spinning wheels through which vital energy flows throughout our body. Blocked energy in any of our chakras can lead to physical or emotional imbalance, which can in turn can lead to illness and disease. Therefore, it's important to keep our chakras balanced and charged, to maintain a free and healthy flow of energy throughout our body on all levels. Check out what each of the 7 chakras correspond to: 1. Root Chakra - Corresponds to our foundation and feeling of being safe and grounded.
2. Sacral Chakra - Relates to our capacity to accept others, and influences our sense of belonging. Ability to accept new experiences and to create.
4. Heart Chakra - Influences our ability to love.
5. Throat Chakra - Our ability to communicate.
6. Third Eye Chakra -Relates to our intelligence, our ability ability to imagine and to visualize and to our intuition.

Press into the webbing between your big toe and 2nd toe, and you will likely feel a tender or downright painful spot. With your finger, press or gently massage this spot for about 2 minutes, and repeat this 2-3 times per day. The point is called Liver 3 and is a major detoxification point on the body. It helps with clearing the body of congestion, relieves allergic reactions, soothes red tired eyes and can even help with irritability.
