Join our Global Events
A warm invitation to join us for the next Jin Shin Jyutsu Global Event for Transformation on Saturday 6.6.2020. On this day, let’s practice the self help exercises below together across the globe. We can create positive change, within and without, individually and collectively. Practice in the comfort of your own home at 8 am and/or 8 pm your time.
Choosing the Date
I was inspired to organize a Global Event on June 6. When I looked at the simple numerology of this day I realized:
6 + 6 + 2 + 0 + 2 + 0 = 16
Knowing what I know about the number sixteen, I thought: “Perfect!”
SEL 16: TRANSFORMATION
In terms of Jin Shin Jyutsu, each of our 26 Safety Energy Locks “have their own inner meaning and purpose”. ‘Energy site’ number 16 as Mary Burmeister explains, “came into the universe meaning the basis of all human activities – breaking down of existing forms for new ones.” In essence, this is transformation.
When we ‘recharge’ by placing our hands on them, we help the skeleton, the muscles, the reproductive functions, elimination. The 16s are also a great help for clearing the head and neck. I use them a lot for headaches and migraines.
Location of the 16s
The 16s are located on the outside (lateral) side of the heel bone (calcaneus) under the ankle. Left 16 is on the left foot and right 16 is on the right foot.
Self Help Exercises for Transformation
There are many ways to recharge our SEL 16s. For the purpose of the Jin Shin Jyutsu Global Event for Transformation, I have chosen these simple exercises.
Exercise
You will need to bring your leg up for the first two positions. I like to sit comfortably, then I place my right leg over my left knee for the right side.
