JIN SHIN JYUTSU For Your Animal Companions

Adele Leas is an internationally known teacher and proponent of JSJ for animals. Originally a practioner of this Art for humans, Adele's expertise lies in comprehending the balancing of the body/mind/spirit in diverse species.

Adele is the author of Jin Shin Jyutsu for Your Animal Companion, now in its fifth printing. Adele has had animal clients and taught JSJ animal classes for more than fifteen years throughout the US and Canada, Brazil and in 7 European countries, as well as being chosen as one of the speakers at the First International Jin Shin Jyutsu forum in Porto Alegre, Brazil in 2004.

In 1989 the "gift" of poor health brought JSJ into Adele's life. She was facing some major health challenges stemming from a weak immune system and several severe accidents. Responding poorly to traditional medical procedures, she was becoming more and more sickly until being introduced to JSJ as a result of a gift certificate for a session. At the time Adele had never heard of Jin Shin Jyutsu. Adele learned some simple self help exercises after her first session. This practice gave her the much needed information that she could heal herself from a state of extreme disease and weakness.

That action started her on a life-long learning experience and set her free. Since then self-help JSJ became the vital tool to maintaining her own health. While unsure of exactly how to proceed, it seemed only natural to share it with her beloved companion, Amiti, a sickly aging Collie. He turned out to be a very patient and willing recipient who was clear about what felt right. The resulting increase in quality, and perhaps quantity, of life was profound.

Like so many whose lives have been transformed through this beautiful Art, Adele found herself studying and sharing Jin Shin Jyutsu with others. Upon settling in New Orleans, she established a full time human practice. It was because of her volunteer work with a number of animal rescue organizations and her own emergency work with abandoned and abused pets that she began sharing JSJ with animals. Working with diverse animals with differing needs has increased Adele's ability to listen and body read, while showing her more about the deeper meaning of "Universal Life Energy."
