About Me

I founded SJA Holistics to help people get well, feel great, and stay well using the power of practices derived from Eastern Medicine including Shiatsu, Reiki, Acupressure and Qi Gong.

For over a decade I’ve worked with Ki and have first-hand experience of how energy- and body-work can lead to positive health. Working with the energy body as well as the physical can bring profound changes to mental, emotional and physical issues.

After completing three years of study for the Professional Shiatsu Diploma, I honed my experience working voluntarily for six months in a national UK charity giving Shiatsu to people recovering from substance misuse.

It is my mission to help you recognise your own self-healing ability and to empower you with the skills and knowledge you need to dramatically improve your self-care.

Intelligent Energy

Every one of us has a universal energy, also known as lifeforce, chi, prana and Ki, that underpins our whole existence, and within that, our health. Stimulating the flow of Ki is how you can get well, feel great and stay well.

Swapping Shiatsu this week....

Fantastic skillshare with very experienced Practitioner @tanyapriceshiatsu ✌️☯️

Tanya works in the tranquil Body Matters space in Steyning, West Sussex.

Tanya's physical Shiatsu helped me feel more grounded and loosened my tight hips. I felt more connected to the ground as I walked home, noticing the contact of my feet with the floor and with each step, feeling more weighted. Mind was calmer.

The skilled touch of Shiatsu that treats you as an individual and works with how it finds you in the moment is such a great way to be reminded of your physical shell and give it some TLC.

Shiatsu is also like a thank you for how hard it works to carry you through life and all the tough times. It's also a welcome break from the busy mind.

Our training is slightly different which was reflected in the Shiatsu we gave to each other. This was also a nice reminder that the world needs all Shiatsu styles...because we each offer something unique that will be of use to someone.

Lovely to meet Tanya and looking forward to more swaps.☯️💜

I'll remember to get a pic of us both next time!

Do you share your skills with others?

Summer months...

As colours turn and Earth Element brings in the Autumn Equinox, I'm as usual wondering what happened to summer.

Grateful to have holed up on the south downs these past few weeks. Some alone time is exactly what I've needed. 

Trips into Brighton and Surrey have been light, brief and fun.

So this is kinda a post to say... I'm still alive!

I've been laying low in preparation for the upcoming Wiltshire gathering @thegeobiologist , Equinox celebrations in Glastonbury and then the much anticipated Dorset discussion day with Rory exploring the true meaning of freedom and prophecy as coded in Jung's symbolism. It's taking me down some fresh mental wanderings - as usual giving me more questions than providing answers.

...

Photo a throwback to south London park lazing with @james.dee.clayton in July and me trying to be more relaxed in front of a camera.

Adventures incoming.
And India on the horizon now too.

Hope you are keeping well, as we slip into cosy jumpers and Yin vibes.

First ever Shiatsu insights....

On a noticeboard in Yoga Point #brixton !

I was queuing for a yoga class and happened to read this.

The rest is history!

I'm using a different SIM after my phone was run over by a van last Wednesday (long story) and discovered some old pics.

I snapped this one thinking "this sounds curious" I must read up more about this.

Fast forward 7yrs and I'm now working as a Shiatsu Practitioner in both the UK and India

Id never considered working in the health space.
But I guess fate guided me down a different path, and I chose to follow. 

Two Shiatsu treatments were all it took for me to sign up to study this incredible ancient healing modality for three years.

Thank you also to burnout which made me seriously improve my self care, and commit to learning more about my body and what it needs (and actually listen to the signals)

Collective existence....

New explorations incoming - once I've got thinking and feeling minds aligned.

Group discussions later this month with @thegeobiologist will reveal more.

Where we need to be in community (and how to do that) Vs looking within to fulfill our needs.

Spiritual authority is and always was an inner job.
Roman Christianity distorted this and immeasurably changed the course of human evolution.

It has us looking to an external 'higher (male) power'.

Perhaps the greatest deception of our age.

And no, I'm not "religious", but when someone says "I will teach you about what is hidden from you", how can we not be curious (Mary Magdalene 6:3)

Vedic philosophy teaches of Indra's Net....

The geniuses who could see beyond the visible knew of the network and our need to co-exist.

The unconscious mind has the answers. And the answers reveal themselves in groups, in more profound ways than when we 

It's all unfolding...

Energy workers, pls head to @practitionersgarden
