Rebirthing is a self-help method learned under the guidance of a trained professional rebirther. The rebirthing process uses a simple defined circular breathing technique to enable the individuals to achieve a finer awareness of mind, body, and emotions, and to bring themselves to a fully present moment. In this state the individual can experience an expanded magnified sensibility of previously submerged feelings and sensations. The significance of the use of the breath in this process lies in its profound connection to thoughts, feelings and memories. Re-experiencing the birth trauma often occurs during rebirthing because it is believed that our resistance, negativity and feelings of rejection carried into adult life have their origins in the birth process. Rebirthing allows one to fully surrender to oneself so that a natural smooth restructuring may occur leading to an overall sense of acceptance, renewal and gratitude for life.
Reflexology is the study and science that works with the theory of pressure points on the feet, hands, and outer ears as reference points to areas on the human body. As stress builds the body works less effectively and eventually this leads to ill health. Using specific relaxing touch techniques, gentle nurturing pressure is applied to the pressure points which when repeated over time has often been reported to dramatically help the self healing process. As a result, a wide range of health benefits from pains in the neck, shoulders, and lower back to headaches and upset stomachs.
