Welcome

This is based around normalising structure and function – this allowing perfect to reassert itself. Often we are caught up in what has gone before and the pelvis, being the fulcrum – carries the majority of the blockages. Studying my chart of the energy flows (channels) will show how the instructions are tangled – in the life residue .
We can free what is then caught up – the fluids and the flows in the more physical (blood adn nerves) leading into eventually pain, through dysfunction as congestion and eventual festering backs up.

The owner’s manual –‘You Have Been Gifted A Body’ takes you through the emotional, mental, Light and energy bodies that support the physical form. When working perfectly – it is as a well oiled machine. Maintenance will be needed – even when being used correctly. Having an owners manual would assist here. Sometimes a more advanced look is needed – as with a car. Maybe a body mechanic (structure determines function) – or an electrician (we are all in form by virtue of the energy currents that run us) or some form of deprogramming (energy follows thought), is needed. Bodies can heal themselves – when what is obstructing healing is moved on

We begin with this pelvis.

We calm and soothe the structure that may hold residues of life lives.

The easy removal of ‘stress’ and tension may surprise you.

When doing this work – you need to be vigilant as the body may tense up as letting go comes near.

Have your tools that may assist ready – be prepared yourself.
Clear the space, the room – yourself – prior to beginning.

I find it easier to be always in touch – and to have some part of my body in connection with theirs when using both my hands – so I can feel – as I can’t necessarily see – what is happening.

Ingredients/nutrients and circulation/flows

All living creatures must repair themselves. The process of homeostasis must be working.
Ingredients needed to live and circulation to get these and wastes out may need tweaking.

Ingredients – a mix of choice, digestion, assimilation and waste processing

Metabolism – circulation into flows and oophm TO be able to fuel the flowing

Circulation – related to all

Tools

1 – Real moxa rolls/sticks/poles. They are easily sourced online if a local Chinese supermarket does not stock them. They are super cheap and must NOT be ‘smokeless’ as these charcoal sticks are ‘fake’. They do not have the properties that make moxa so invaluable.

2 – A massage oil/cream to slide and sometimes more gouge – I use coconut oil to slide and a beeswax composite to usually use in the more gouging/deeper adventures.

3 – Access to the WDCD manual (ideally the real hard covered version – there is an eBook one also.

4 – Pelvic opening for easy pregnancy and birth resources – (all to be printed and maybe laminated) and the WDCD DVD’s/MP4 files . . some of the footage seen below

What works – get the flows flowing What Dads Can Do

I designed this work to allow couples to do for themselves. To be happier and excited about all body changes.

Easier to work pregnancy on the floor – here she is 30+weeks lying on a nest of pillows. – Under hips and breasts
We may need to review how we ‘know’

1 – We just know
2 – Embodied – we have learned/it holds ‘true’ for us.
(Often survival – think of all animals – they are here as what they do works).
3 – Someone said (and we follow as trusting infants)
4 – Many someone’s said (and have written) (As above – we follow as we are being ‘good’ – fitting in with programme – whose?.

I go with life – this ALWAYS works.

How do I know? Developed and trialed in my clinic over all stage of life, sex, ‘condition’ and ages over decades.

Move Your Qi challenge – has 5 basic lessons.

Actual Moves showcased in the manual What Dads Can Do

All of these moves – though this is filmed for pregnancy – is for any body, any time

Stuck Liver Qi Release

What it is – A way to release upper to lower body tension, and all that holds the breath, the fluids, the body structure STUCK. More on Stuck Liver Qi here (CLICK). The massage and how/why here.
Origin – Rolfing maybe. (I was under the care of a rolfer (10 consecutive sessions in my early 20’s). Instead of massage, I designed this as a way to clam and generally make it easier for myself to work out what to do with whoever walked into the clinic. By taking away the top layers of distress, relating through touch, The way would be clear – and as well – the primal need for connection were assuaged.
Why it is – The Liver energy when not flowing holds the entire being hostage. When we feel upset, or we feel anything and do not express it – we block flows of Qi and everything n the body becomes constrained – can’t work as flows the=at should be are blocked. However lightly, this compounds quickly.
How to do it –
Starting gently – with warm hands, with the person w=aware that this si deeply relaxing – BUT may initially be tricky if they have bound themselves up in a big knot. Much like a tangle of wool – gently and patiently does it.
What it may feel like – under your hands/fingers – Totally depends on how tightly they are wound up
When to use – On everyone. Usually at the beginning s this frees all else. Allows you to work instantly deeper with less hassle. You can return to this at various times in the session as it is a great undoer.
When not to use – If the person can’t stand touch. Even then – to unlock is it free the body and what is holding it all in a stuck pattern.

What to do to set it up to win – Get them comfy. You start slowly and gently – as they unwind you can go deeper. NEVER speedy. The slower and more meditatively – you can get into a rocking , very slow dance with your whole body. Always move away from your body – you MUST go to the opposite side – not work towards you, This is a totally different and weird way when you have completed the ‘away’ move.

Sacral Moxa Fan

Please watch first if you have not been introduced to moxa first.

General instructions for beginners

What it is – A quick, easy and effective way to get all the body happier – warmer, and flowing.
Origin – Life in clinic – I worked out how to give people homework – to lessen all I had to do
Why it is – Moxa is magic. It is vibrational ‘medicine’ – not only heat- very penetrating. Apparently the infra red ‘wattage’ of the sun is replicated.
How to do it – Hold the stick ALWAYS away from the skin – is to NEVER touch it. Use your other finger as a ‘spacer’ so there is always a gap between the moxa stick and their body. Please follow the explicit video instructions.
What it may feel like – for them They should feel instantly relaxed/calmed. Often they report a running warm water sensation down their legs – or a warmness spreading – often into their belly. Great release.
When to use –
At the beginning of whatever you are doing – or the SLQR. Sets them up to receive and makes sure nothing hurts as it otherwise may have – takes off the first layers of STUCK easily.
When not to use – If they are suffering from great anger/somewhat affected by anything to upset their Shen, if there is a skin lesion – rashes in the area – or if they are not feelings safe when you do this – or if allergic to moxa smoke.

What to do to set it up to win – Get set up so all is easy – warm drinking water and ensure no draughts.

Must not be hungry. Take a protein/salty/fatty snack – not sweet. Moxa is inclined to ‘space’ you out at the best of times.

Lymphatic drainage

Upper

What it is – A way to easily move what can clog up the system
Origin – ?? I learned in the acupuncture class in 1977 – from the lecturer who was also a chiropractor.
Why it is – Damp – from an acupuncture model – what is obstructing flows – wastes – not moved on – create havoc.
How to do it –Using the pads of your fingers – not the tips, warm hands, gently move down and towards the sides of the body – under the ribs, starting in the mid line – and from the pubic bone OUT to the sides – also across the chest to the intervertebral spaces – always shallow to begin with and gradually getting deeper slower the better.
Always start gently, slowly and watching the persons’s face, taking cues from whether it is too distressing or relaxing.
What it may feel like – under your hands/fingers –Sometimes toothpaste. Occasionally somewhat thick – and even lumpy. Gently does it
When to use – On everyone – at the beginning (very gently as a checking move and as you go onto more clearing – often ending with this.
When not to use – Always needed. If someone is concerned as they have been told/learned that lymphatic massage is inappropriate – go back to basics – flows MUST flow. By allowing blockage, you are fostering dis ease and the rubbish MUST move through.

What to do to set it up to win – Always offer water (tepid ideally) to sip as you go. Ensure that they are comfy (soft belly, by elevating the knees – pillows used whether lying on their back, or on their fronts whilst you work on them.

Open chest moves across the top of the ribs start at 1.30 minutes in.

I remind you that this has been lifted from my 2005 work – Massage What Dads Can Do.
(See the 1 1/4 hour presentation at the beginning of this page.
All of this work is appropriate for all at any age or stage of life/disease.

We are encouraging flows to return to normal – homeostasis.

Lower body

Sacral Wakeups

Actual moves start at 1.32 minutes in. (do watch as the text is helpful)

What it is – a way to get all the flows in the body moving quickly.
Origin – My decades of working with women who were usually sedentary, upset (carrying vast amounts of angst, often from their very tender ages/beginnings of being female in this place).
Why it is – bodies remember all that has happened to them. They (especially when female/trained to be ‘nice’) hold it all ‘in’ /’for later’ – creating massive life dramas to be redefined as ‘medical’ conditions all because their Liver Qi and flows were NOT flowing. .
How to do it – Start with warm hands firm yet gentle and gradually go in deeper. ALWAYS slow.
What it may feel like – under your hands/fingers – Totally variable – our intention is always to open/loosen and liberate the body and its flows. Freedom.
When to use – We do not start here – as it is too invasive. Clearing work needs to have been done first. (See below).
When not to use – Depending in the depth you are working at – even if someone is in great pain (especially when) you can use – after the setting up has been done well.

What to do to set it up to win – Start with the SLQR and if possible the sacral moxa fan.

Alternative position . .

We are human beings
We are primal

We crave touch.

When doing this work – it is an act of love – tender and caring.

Sitting in this way – she is facing forwards, allowing the opening of the pelvis and if/when pregnant – bub can easily find a more conducive position. The ligaments are relaxing, and the pelvis is naturally open forwards facing.
