Lets begin by taking hold of your fingers.

Starting with the thumb, just by holding the thumb and waiting for a pulse, you can relieve a nauseated stomach and or excess worry.

Next the index finger, hold and wait for a pulse to restore circulation and freedom from fear/anxiety.

Holding the middle finger and waiting for a pulse relieves hostility and aggression by harmonizing the liver and gall bladder. It also increases our capacity for compassion.

Our ring finger involves essential rhythms of life, when holding this you can balance your respiratory system. It also releases grief and sorrow.

Finally, our little finger when held releases pretense, doubt and judgment. It nourishes and brings balance to the heart and small intestine.

This and more can be found in Alice Burmeister "The Touch of Healing" which is a guide to Jin Shin Jyutsu.

These are a few techniques I've used to help myself.

Laughter

The first and most easy form of self healing is laughter. To begin, become aware of how often you do laugh now and to what degree? Could you feel it in your belly?

See how long you can laugh and what makes you laugh. What are the benefits? Did you notice an uplift in energy and mood? Try it again. This time force yourself to laugh. Just the thought of it can be funny. How did you do? Do it in the morning to start off your day with a LAUGH.

And now you know the importance of a giggle!
