Suzanne Bird - Reiki & Jin Shin Jyutsu Practitioner

Suzanne Bird has been practicing Energy Arts for four years.  She has a background in stress from the corporate world, which led her to yoga.  While on a yoga retreat at Kripalu, she picked up Tanmaya Honervogt’s book The Power of Reiki - An Ancient Hands-on Healing Technique, that introduced her to the world of energy and clarified for her the renewal she always found in Nature.  Studying Reiki would bring her a growing sense of peace, and lead her to Jin Shin Jyutsu®, which would transmute her perspective on illness and wellness.

Suzanne has studied various Western & Japanese Reiki techniques, and received her Reiki Mastership from William Rand of the International Center for Reiki Training.  She is also a Jin Shin Jyutsu® Practitioner and Jin Shin Jyutsu Self-Help® Instructor.  She offers gentle holistic hands-on eastern therapies to assist you in increasing joy, relieving pain, improving sleep, calming anxiety, restoring vitality, promoting healing and more.

Energy therapies transport you to the calming alpha state of awareness.  This allows your self-healing abilities to activate.  You’ll effortlessly enter a meditative state.

Reiki is a Japanese method of stress reduction & revitalization.  The word Reiki can be translated as “Spiritually Guided Life Force Energy”.  During a session, you rest comfortably clothed on the treatment table as hands are lightly placed on or above key areas of the body.  Reiki feels like a warm blanket of healing enfolding you.  The Practitioner is a channel for the Life Force, as energy flows out their hands.  The Energy goes where needed, and the recipient only absorbs what they need.  Reiki brings relaxation and feelings of deep peace. The National Institutes of Health is studying Reiki’s beneficial effects on depression, heart disease, cancer & chronic pain.  Reiki may reduce medication side effects, help you prepare for surgery and speed recovery afterwards. By keeping your energy field at a higher vibration with Reiki, you are more likely to remain calm emotionally and mentally, and stay healthy or return to health physically.

Jin Shin Jyutsu^®, or the Art of Happiness and Longevity, “is an ancient art of harmonizing the life energy in the body.  It promotes optimal health & facilitates our own profound healing capacity.  Jin Shin Jyutsu is a valuable complement to conventional healing methods, inducing relaxation and reducing the effects of stress.  It can be applied as self-help or by a trained practitioner.  It doesn’t involve massage or manipulation of muscles. It is a gentle art, practiced by placing fingertips (over clothing) on designated ‘safety energy locks’, to harmonize & restore the energy flow.  To maintain health, it is a simple & powerful tool, available to all!”  (© jsjinc.net) This Art teaches that “as above, so below”, and that matter is the lowest form of Spirit and Spirit is the highest form of matter.  This means that we can heal the mind and spirit through the body, and vice versa.

Self-help is as simple as holding a finger.

Suzanne has witnessed wonderful changes in herself and others from practicing energy therapies, and is committed to sharing the paths to healing and empowering others.  Her passions include practicing yoga, spending time in nature, and studying Shamanism.  When not practicing Energy Arts, she spreads healing through laughter mystery dinner theatre company, “Die Laughing Mystery Productions”.
