Then I found I could heal it! My story of seeking balance began two decades ago. Nowadays many women have had amazing healing and empowering experiences with this practice. For those new to this space, a bit more about me on the foot of this event. **The [JADE EGG HOLISTIC PRACTICE](https://www.jadecircleanamarta.com/jade-egg-holistic-practice/)** A unique method that addresses all levels of being. Anchored in my shamanic background and two decades of experience in crystal healing. It has kept refining and evolving over the past nineteen years. Presenting the [Jade Egg](https://www.jadecircleanamarta.com/jade-circle-shop/) as a transformational healing tool. It is the culmination of my devotion to the Yin Taoist Practices and Alchemy Secrets. With the commitment to revive the Jade Priestess Lineage and the Dragon Mystic Codes. **[ANAMARTA](https://www.jadecircleanamarta.com/anamarta/)** *Called a Trailblazer in Feminine Empowerment, a Visionary, and a Spiritual Midwife. A Taoist Master by the Independent Newspaper.* Initiated by my grandmother into the family lineage of Medicine Women. I dedicate my life to helping women access their radiant health and self-empowerment. I’m a pioneer of the Tao of Feminine Empowerment. I qualified as a Taoist Master Trainer from Healing Tao UK. And became an Advanced Instructor of the Tai Chi Union for Great Britain. Teaching the Jade Egg Holistic Practice & Kuan Yin Qigong for most of my adult life. I teach ongoing monthly circles, online courses, weekend workshops, and week-long retreats. Women describe these experiences as life-enhancing and for many life-changing. An honour and a joy to hold this sacred space for many thousands of women around the world. Then when the Jade Temple Online started, the world gathered in one place. In the same spirit of love and what I’d like to call sisterhood medicine. Since its birth in London in 2007, the Jade Circle® has visited 14 countries over four continents. I'm grateful for the numerous places that have hosted me.

Hello everyone, My name is Taka. Introduction Workshop to learn about Jyorei - Japanese Energy Healing. \*\*Location :\*\*Oscailt 8 Pembroke Rd, Dublin This introduction Workshop is a wonderful opportunity for you to learn about a simple yet profound healing art—Jyorei—which helps us become healthier and happier by shining Divine Light within us. Mokichi Okada, the creator of Jyorei, officially began his healing work, applying Jyorei in its earliest form in 1934. He viewed spiritual/physical impurities in our bodies as the cause of various forms of suffering, and developed Jyorei as a healing method to dissolve those impurities. Currently, over a couple of million people around the world are practicing Jyorei, and are experiencing remarkable benefits from it. Jyorei is a shared act involving two people, one who gives and one who receives. No physical contact occurs , therefore we observe social distancing. Besides profound healing, the person receiving Jyorei may experience a sensation of tranquility and well-being. The nature of Jyorei is such that its blessings are even greater for the giver. Not only does the giver benefit by Jyorei, but he or she also gains a larger capacity for compassion and love for others by sharing these benefits with close relatives, friends, and neighbours.Jyorei can be given at any place and to anyone. We look forward to seeing you at the class. Jyorei story on Youtube. [https://youtu.be/-ZnHILhENQM?feature=shared](https://youtu.be/-ZnHILhENQM?feature=shared) **Who are we?** Shumei, a spiritual organisation, fosters health, happiness, and harmony for all by applying the wisdom and insights of the spiritual leader, Mokichi Okada, whom its members refer to as “Meishusama”. Meishusama taught that a world free of sickness, poverty, and discord is within everyone’s reach through the spiritual healing of Jyorei, the practice of Natural Agriculture, and the appreciation of Art and Beauty. Kind regards, Taka E Mail : dublin@shumei.eu
