Michel Odoul – författare

Reveals the precise correspondences between specific emotional and mental tensions and the illnesses and traumas of the body• Explains how physical complaints--energetic disturbances that lead to ailments or chronic conditions--are your soul speaking to you• Shows how the body part affected as well as which side it is on pinpoints what your soul is trying to tell you and what you need to work through emotionally•  Physical complaints - energetic disturbances that lead to ailments or chronic conditions - are how your soul speaks to you about what’s hindering your development.As Michel Odoul shows, the “proof” of this lies in the clear correspondences between emotional and mental tensions and specific ailments. Providing a reference grid of body-mind connections, he explains, for example, how skin conditions reflect difficulties with aggression from the outside world and knee problems indicate inflexibility or tension in relationships. He shows not only how each side of the body has specific meanings and connections to emotions, relationships, and family but also how the upper and lower halves of the body have specific connections--together forming four quadrants with unique Yin-Yang balances, where Yin represents emotional issues and Yang represents action/inaction. Offering keys to deciphering how the soul speaks through the body, the author shows that we can learn to see physical ailments not as something caused by chance or fate but as a message from our soul. By releasing the energies and patterns they point to, we can return to a state of health and forward movement on our soul’s evolutionary path.

Reveals the precise correspondences between specific emotional and mental tensions and the illnesses and traumas of the body • Explains how physical complaints--energetic disturbances that lead to ailments or chronic conditions--are your soul speaking to you • Shows how the body part affected as well as which side it is on pinpoints what your soul is trying to tell you and what you need to work through emotionally • Explains the Yin-Yang energetic correspondences of the body: the Yang axis of the shoulders, the Yin axis of the hips, and the Yin-Yang maternal/paternal connections Our body speaks. Physical complaints--allergies, fever, sore throat, inflammation, cysts, backache, migraines, sinus problems, sciatica, dizzy spells, and even cancer--are all signs of deep tensions inside of us are seeking expression. This is why, given the same genetic foundation, one individual develops a specific illness while another remains in good health. Drawing on 20 years of experience and several thousand individual consultations with patients, Michel Odoul shows the “proof” of this lies in the clear correspondences between emotional and mental tensions and specific ailments. The author reveals how every illness or trauma is a signal of incredible precision: The part of the body affected pinpoints what your inner being is trying to tell you and what you need to work through emotionally. Providing a reference grid of body-mind connections, he explains, for example, how skin conditions reflect difficulties with aggression from the outside world and knee problems indicate inflexibility or tension in relationships. He shows not only how each side of the body has specific meanings and connections to emotions, relationships, and family but also how the upper and lower halves of the body have specific connections--together forming four quadrants with unique Yin-Yang balances, where Yin represents emotional issues and Yang represents action/inaction. He also explores the role of the meridians of Chinese medicine in distributing emotional and mental energy throughout the body. Offering keys to decipher what the body is trying to tell us, the author shows that we can learn to see physical ailments not as something caused by chance or fate but as a message from our heart and soul. By releasing the energies and patterns they point to, we can return to a state of health and forward movement on our path through life.

Shiatsu is relatively young compared to other traditional healing systems: less than 100 years old, Shiatsu has developed rapidly and spread just as quickly. From a conglomerate of different roots, a trunk with many branches and even more blossoms has emerged in a short period of time. But what is the essence of Shiatsu? What principles is it based on? What is the role of Ki? What is the role of the meridians? How central is the hara? And what distinguishes a good practitioner? This book project is dedicated to searching for answers: leading global Shiatsu experts with decades of experience have their say. Their perspectives on fundamental questions about Shiatsu will contribute to a deeper understanding of the essential aspects of our art.

Shiatsu ist im Vergleich zu anderen traditionellen Heilkunst-Systemen relativ jung: Keine 100 Jahre alt, hat sich Shiatsu rasch entwickelt und genauso rasch verbreitet. Aus einem Konglomerat an verschiedenen Wurzeln ist in kurzer Zeit ein Stamm mit vielen Zweigen und noch mehr Blüten hervorgegangen. Im Rahmen dieses Werdungsprozesses haben Gedankenmodelle und Behandlungstechniken vieler anderer Methoden Einfluss auf die Evolution von Shiatsu geübt und die Shiatsu-Blüten auf teils sehr unterschiedlich Art und Weise gefärbt und geformt. Fazit: Wir leben in einer bunten Shiatsu-Welt. Wir erfreuen uns großer Shiatsu-Vielfalt. Was ist aber die Essenz von Shiatsu? Auf welchen Kernprinzipien basiert es? Wie funktioniert es wirklich? Was ist die Rolle von Ki? Was die Rolle der Meridiane? Wie zentral ist das Hara? Und: Was zeichnet eine:n gute:n Praktiker:in aus?Dieses Buchprojekt widmet sich der Spurensuche: Zu Wort kommen global führende Shiatsu-Expert:innen mit jahrzehntelanger Erfahrung. Ihre Perspektive auf grundlegende Shiatsu-Fragen soll dazu beitragen, ein tieferes Verständnis für die wesentlichen Aspekte unserer Kunst zu erlangen. Ihre Ansichten sollen uns helfen, uns der Essenz von Shiatsu anzunähern. Ein fruchtbarer wie herausfordernder Diskurs, der für Impulse und Inspiration sorgen will.
