Episode 14: Bringing More Awareness to our Bodies with Jeneesa Jackson

I was on a Massage-high during this recording.  “The real purpose of giving a massage is to foster more depth of feeling for one another in order to bring out the love that often lies buried beneath the pain of everyday suffering.” -Robert Calvert Welcome Jeneesa! Here's what we talk about today: Jeneesa helped me with recovering and feeling good Healing people through massage How’d she get into it [1:30] Top massage school in Utah craniosacral, kinesiology, energy-healing modalities She specializes in [3:10] Structural integration  - child of rolfing. Focuses on Alignment of the body. Wherever the tissue is short you want to stretch it out  because that’s pulling the body to one side or forward. Also focuses on facial planes.  Energy work she intuitively incorporates How in-tune does someone need to be to acknowledge they are tight? [5:40] One of purposes of massage therapy is that it creates awareness in the body. The body naturally wants to heal itself and her job is to get rid of the things in the body that want to stop that. Our bodies are our best teachers, they give us our signs. Why holistic practices are very important. Let ourselves to feel what we feel. If we hold on to stresses it will build up into our tissues. That’s why massage helps heal on an emotional and spiritual level because when we work out physically whatever’s hurting in our muscle tissues, we are also releasing something we held on to and have not let go of. On a maintenance, everyone could use a 90 minute massage a month Cronic issues would be best 1-2x a week Bob Hope from the Price is Right got one every day and he lived to around 90! On a scientific level it stimulates your lymphatic system, which is what detoxes toxins. One reason why she loves cupping massages. Helps with skeletal system. If muscles around the skeletal system are tight, they are pulling the bones out of place, so its good to loosen those up so you can stay in alignment. Our fascias produce our bodies natural anti-inflammatory chemical, so stripping the fascia back into place can help release this. Benefits of essential oils during massage: She uses depending on how people feel. Peppermint for headaches and uplifting with energy Eucalyptus opens sinus  Frankincense is a negative energy cleanser Lime is a cleanser and uplifting and refreshing ‘Love’ blend sweet orange, ying yang, bergamot, amarice  Spearmint and eucalyptus lotion, grape-seed oil is a natural skin tightener and has many vitamins.  What she learned on her a 3 month abroad trip!  Healers must take care of themselves because it can effect the people they work with.  Her gift she wishes to share with the world is: She likes to give hope and faith that we can overcome pain and enjoy our life and be happy. Not to give up because we will  always be on a rollercoaster, if you keep fighting for happiness you can see the light! Seek after help so we can all serve each other! @jeneesa_jackson on IG [email protected]
