About Jane
I have been practicing holistic bodywork since 1994. I love the freedom of body, mind and spirit which it brings on so many levels. I studied Holistic Massage therapy in Liverpool in 1993 and then, with the attitude of 'Have hands will travel!' I travelled to and worked in various locations around the world for a number of years. The work in massage therapy has ranged from cruise ships, health spas resorts, holistic centres and chiropractic clinics, not to mention the odd beachside massage hut in Australia and I have even practiced under a tree at a beach in Cyprus for a time also!
I now work from my treatment room in Hoylake on the Wirral in the Northwest of England and I also teach Yoga locally and run workshops and retreats. I am also available for voice and sound workshops and retreats which may run further a field if invited.
I believe it's the 'inner meditative dance' which transforms us through the course of any holistic practice or therapy massage. It can rarely be expressed in logical terms, yet it is this dance which miraculously rejeuvenates people on so many levels. Just allowing ourselves a little time out and to stop and listen to this is often the key principle of the healing process. It’s so easy to get caught up in the activities of work, home and play, yet to simply allow ourselves to stop and wind down can often be a daunting task.
In 2002 whilst living in Cyprus my studies lead me into the path of yoga. I started practicing it until was coming out of my ears ( or was that my legs folding around my ears?) anyway my fascination with eastern philosophies soon got the better of me, and the next thing I was in India chanting ‘Om’ and studying to become a teacher of yoga at the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Ashram in Kerala, Southern India. It included an intensive daily practice of asanas (yogic postures), pranayama (breathwork) and meditation along with the study of yogic philosophy, and lots more chanting! It was a complete 'third' eye opener which showed me a glimpse of how we can learn to become attuned to the subtle energy systems of the body mind and spirit. I'm still learning and have a keen interest in the spiritual teachings on yoga, meditation and healing, as it all essentially leads us back to our naturally blissful state!
When practiced or received regularly, yoga, healing and massage therapy work synergistically to help us relax, recharge and rejuvenate. These practices allow us to become fully present in each moment and experience life in it's true fullness.
I believe that we are all 'work in progress' and only through the re-education of the mind body and spirit can we learn how to access our true spiritual insight and using this wisdom we can balance the internal self with the demands of the external world.
I am a chela/student of the Himalayan Master, Satguru Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath, who quotes "At the level of conscioussness humanity is one"
About her Teacher
Satgurunath is of the Nath lineage which is the most ancient Yogic Tradition.This tradition has also included such Masters as Lahiri Mahasaya, Sri Yuketeswar and Parahansa Yogananda ( the author of the classic yogic text- Autobiography of a Yogi')
He is a fully enlightened solar master, a siddha and continues to travel the world teaching Kriya Yoga and spreading his message of earth peace through self peace. He is a shapeshifter, a beautiful spiritual being who is as much earthbound as he is a part of the heavens, a householder yogi, with a wife and family of children and grandchildren, and through his teachings he provides education and food for several villages of children at his ashram in India.
