Face Reading vs Reflexology

There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception. Aldous Huxley   I'm often approached by professionals who use alternate maps to 'read' and interpret signs on the face. Some come from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), others from ... Read More

Should I study ‘Dien Chan’ or ‘Dien Chan Zone®’?

There is a positive mental formation called "ease" - a relaxed state of peacefulness and tranquility, like the still water in a calm mountain lake. We cannot be happy, we cannot nourish and heal ourselves, unless we are at ease. Thich Nhat Hanh   I address this question only because I ... Read More

  • Next week is World Reflexology Week! . “This timeless therapy has been applied, most probably, for thousands of years. It is arguably the most accessible, affordable and effective medicine on the planet and yet, in 2018 only a tiny percentage of people can express what it is, how it works or why everyone would benefit from knowing. . There are even professionals in the field who do not recognise its scope or its significance. I’m sure that if more people did, the masses would be informed and healthcare systems around the world would be reimagined over night. And that would be just the beginning…” . Subscribe at the link in bio for the full blog post coming Monday and look out for some special posts next week about why Reflexology is a path of consciousness and a gift to human kind. . . . #worldreflexologyweek #facialreflexology #reflexologyforall #selfcarefordelfagency #pathofconciousness #pathoftrust
  • The time will come 
when, with elation 
you will greet yourself arriving 
at your own door, in your own mirror 
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat. 
You will love again the stranger who was your self. 
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart 
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored 
for another, who knows you by heart. 
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf, 
the photographs, the desperate notes, 
peel your own image from the mirror. 
Sit. Feast on your life. ~ Derek Walcott . If the Italians have taught me one thing over the last five years living here it’s how to FEEL :: how to expand my senses, to decipher what I prefer, to acknowledge where I hurt, to recognise everything and everyone as a reflection. These teachings are inseparable from their method of Facial Reflexology. . If you’re ready to rediscover yourself, your body, your power register to join my free info session next Thursday (27th) to learn about upcoming training courses which are shared online and completed with in person meetings.

  • D A Y 2 1 :: #dienchanzonewomban We’ve made it to the final day of our self care challenge... even for me at the beginning of these cycles it can feel like a burden to remember and take the time each day but by the end I’m reminded of the effortlessness afforded in return for such interesting results... and the truth is it’s not over yet - for many this may only be the beginning! . W H A T N E X T ? It is really important after stimulating the same reflex zone for 21 days to pause and take a 7 day break. This will give you an opportunity to observe your body without any intervention and evaluate how it is performing ‘alone’. What has shifted as you look back on your notes from the past 3 weeks? What other systems / parts of your body have called your attention over this period? Have you noticed any change in your cycle? Your emotional state? The speed or content of your mind? . Personally I’ve noted all kinds of observances including :: ‘crunchy’ areas under the skin above my lip, to tired and achey eyes, digestive changes (including one whole day of hiccups), ringing in my ears, interrupted sleep, vivid dreams, urogenital shifts I don’t care to detail here and a few emotional revelations. To many these observances may seem random, unrelated or even exaggerated to notice but to those studying the body as a whole they reveal clues and patterns which indicate the language of the body. . If you’ve noticed an improvement (no matter how ‘small’ in the initial symptoms which led you to try this practice, you may wish to continue in the same way for a further 21 days once your break is complete. Otherwise it may be best for you to work with another system for optimum rebalance of the whole. I’ve personally trained over 200 operators in Europe and North America who are equipped to guide you forward with this practice as well as amplify your results with the full therapeutic experience of DCZ #facialreflexology which has been described as ‘hypnotic,’ ‘mystical’ and ‘meditative.’ You can find the practitioner closet to you at www.dienchanzone.com or DM me for more information. . . . #mirrormedicine Art by @ineslongevial
  • ⏳ HOW MUCH TIME SHOULD I DEDICATE TO SELF TREATMENT ?? ⏳ Often when I deliver a personalized map to continue treatment autonomously, I’m asked this question, and I tend to say that you can spend around 15 minutes, but this is NOT THE ANSWER. . The answer is “TUJ” - IT DEPENDS in Vietnamese, this word for me is the heart of Dien Chan Zone, how much time do you want to devote to take care of you? How much time can you dedicate to listening to what you hear without judgment? How much confidence do you have in the possibility to bring yourself back to balance despite life’s difficulties? . It depends and always depends on ourselves. . If one day you don’t want to spend 10 minutes on self-treatment, maybe you can simply listen to that resistance, make space and pay attention to what it wants to tell you. . Facial reflexology - Dien Chan Zone is a way of ::: 🦋 Listening 🦋 Faith 🦋 Acceptance . Be open, flexible, curious and treat yourself with patience and kindness, this will create time and space for everything. . Words by the ever articulate Francesca, my dear colleague @dienchanzone_pg. Here I’m practicing facial reflexology with my rock quartz gua sha available at the link in bio (it doubles up as a beauty tool and high vibe friend). . . . #mirrormedicine #dienchanzone #facialguasha #selfcarerevolution #hackyournervoussystem #selfobservation
  • P E R S O N A L M E D I C I N E We’ve made it to day 13 of the #dienchanzonewomban challenge! See my saved stories or watch today’s live to hear a little about how we’ve been getting on. It thrills me to the core to think that around 300 women around the world are stepping up to care for themselves in this way because what this tool has to offer is nothing like any other reflexology or complimentary therapy, it’s unrelated to any other facial practice, it’s uniquely simple and comprehensive and if we were all to pass it on to just one woman in our lives we’d change the world with its potency. . Are you ready to stop fighting with your body and take the time to listen? Are you willing to trust in the intelligence of your cells rather than rely on the reasoning of your mind? . Join us.

  • FACE READING : vs : REFLEXOLOGY . People often ask me about #facereading and the use of alternate maps to interpret marks and signs on the face... . Some read the face to detect dishonesty, to decipher a person’s character or to predict life experiences... Most commonly though face reading maps are used to ‘diagnose’ an imbalance which will then be addressed using a specialised therapy or medicine... meanwhile in #reflexology it is never our work to ‘diagnose’ (though with practice we can very accurately speculate). . I’ve just written a SHORT blog post to bust the common misconception that #facialreflexology is a form of face reading and to reassure you all that multiple maps are valid and valuable.

  • W O M B A N “All the eggs a woman will ever carry form in her ovaries while she is a four month old fetus in the womb of her mother. This means our cellular life as an egg begins in the womb of our grandmother. Each of us spent five months in our grandmother's womb and she in turn formed within the womb of her grandmother. We vibrate to the rhythms of our mother's blood before she herself is born. And this pulse is the thread of blood that runs all the way back through the grandmothers to the first mother. We all share the blood of the first mother - we are truly children of one blood.” ~ Layne Redmond . If you’ve yet to join our 21 day #dienchanzonewomban challenge to aid rebalance at the level of your reproductive system... know that you can find all of the instructions in my stories. Know that when you begin to heal yourself this way you are actively healing your entire lineage.

  • “As muddy water flows it becomes clear” ~ Santōka Taneda . The body’s vital energy can be compared to a river of water... it flows head to toe, in a circuit which repeats each day. Slowly, over time and for a variety of reasons, obstructions can develop which block or divert this natural stream - just as might occur in an actual river. . When this happens in the body it produces what we call ‘symptoms’ :: messages from the body intended to alert us to the state of imbalance. At first the body whispers and over time, if nothing is done to resolve the dis-ease, it begins to shout. . Working with DCZ facial reflexology we can begin to perceive this conversation. Each person responds differently to stimulation of zones on the face but all should be aware than ANY change in the body / emotions which we observe is a sign that the medicine is working and so it is very important to continue with the daily practice for a full 21 day cycle. Even if after a couple of days you feel the issue is resolved / even if the body begins to bring your attention to another organ or system / even if things start to feel ‘uncomfortable’. Stay the course. . See today’s story which exemplifies what can unfold in just 3 days - the #dienchanzonewomban challenge continues... I can’t predict what will have transpired within the next 3 weeks but I have a feeling many of you will be amazed. ♥️🙌🏻✨ . . . #wholistic #healthfromwithin #womenswellness #challenge #healthinyourhands
