MY WHY!

Jan Normanton • June 11, 2022

Why do I love to treat bodies?!

I feel incredibly well when I treat clients.


Whatever the treatment – Trauma Discharge Therapy, No Hands massage, Indian head massage, sports massage, and often a combination of them all along with targeted cryotherapy, treating a client is like therapy for myself!


My passion is embodiment – having spent a large part of my life disembodied, disconnected from my True Self and living in my head!


Having lived a life on autopilot and disengaged from myself and others, I know better now – that to feel deeply well, I need to operate from my body first and foremost.


I have come to trust in my body wisdom as it knows what is good for me.


And so, to my choice of occupation. Bodywork! It is perfect for me!


My work brings me into embodied presence where I can drop any catastrophising thoughts about the future and let go of any ruminating thoughts about the past


In the present I feel whole, complete, calm, contented, relaxed, peaceful and at ONE with myself.


All thoughts, doubts, fears, anxieties and so STRESS disappear in the here and now.


My inner world is at peace – my mind, body and soul are aligned and at one with each other, rather than in conflict that can create stress for me.


In the absence of stress, I


*** Flood my body with feel good hormones – endorphins, serotonin, oxytocin.


*** Reduce my heart rate


*** Lower my blood pressure


*** Dissolve any tension in my body


*** Let go of the infernal inner monkey chatter


*** Breathe deeper, better and in doing so I flood my organs and whole body with freshly oxygenated and nutrient rich blood and so improve all my internal systems


*** Recalibrate my nervous system, and so cease to produce stress chemicals adrenaline and cortisol that cause inflammation in my body and can ultimately make me very sick


My clients often ask me how can I do these treatments all day – how I must be so exhausted!


When it’s quite the opposite!


I get into bliss states! And so, it is an honour and a joy to do this vocation and be of service to help others.


So, this is what happens for me when I give you a treatment!


Imagine how great you can feel to receive a treatment from me!


Your body, mind and spirit get to rest, relax, restore, recuperate, recover, recharge and reset!


Our underlying beliefs about scarcity become our reality

Our underlying beliefs about scarcity that we don’t have enough time and that we are not enough become self fulfilling prophecies and result in more of what we believe - scarcity in this case.

By Jan Normanton January 28, 2025
We can operate from our heads in the distraction and busyness of life and have little regard for our bodies, and in this way we can self abandon and deny ourselves the very essence of being human and to inhabit a congruent internal world
