Jin Shin Jyutsu is wonderful to do yourself and that may be the secret and the reason why it can be so powerful.

And in Jin Shin Jyutsu we use innate knowledge that everyone uses intuitively. You don't believe that? Don't we all put our hands on painful areas? For example, on the stomach, or on the shoulder if we've been working on the computer for too long? That's an attempt to bring about relief. With Jin Shin Jyutsu we can use this impulse for ourselves and use it more purposefully if we gain a little insight into the connections.

There are various self-help courses for this purpose; depending on the teacher, they are offered over one or two days.

But knowledge alone is of no use. It is up to you to apply it.

Jin Shin Jyutsu only works through doing. And you can do it anywhere you are standing or sitting and have your hands free. Try it out now and hold your thumb as often as possible, as shown in the drawing.
