Decrease stress & tension
in your body.
Here
are some simple instructions
to help improve sleep with
High Touch® Jin Shin points # 19 .
Where
is High Touch® Jin Shin point # 19 ?
Bend both elbows to 90 degrees.
Allow the tips of your index, middle & ring fingers of the opposite hand to touch your elbow just below the outer crease that forms when you bend your elbows. This may feel like you are almost crossing your arms.
"Point #19 is where we strive toward our highest aspiration - how we reach out to interact with the world. The 19 s influence tension in the upper back, arms, chest & digestive organs."
Quoted from High Touch® Jin Shin Workbook One
by Betsy Ruth Dayton, M. Ed.
You have now found your # 19 s.
Contact (gently press) your right point # 19
with your left hand’s index, middle & ring fingertips
as you also contact your left point #19
with your right hand’s index, middle & ring fingertips.
Make yourself comfortable.
Relax your shoulders by allowing them
to drop with your next exhale.
Count 52 EXHALES
at your normal rate of breathing
as you contact these points.
You have now completed this self-care sequence.
Pause for a few breaths to simply
observe your body. Notice how you feel.
I invite you to pause to notice how you feel
physically & mentally both before & after
you give yourself the gift of this self-care sequence daily.
