Book & Charts

This book is the natural outgrowth of the passion Adele feels for Jin Shin Jyutsu and the extraordinary joy animals have brought to her life.

It is her desire to share the harmonizing she has experienced through the blending of these two worlds that prompted her to write this book and make it accessible to you now.

The book is based on Mary Burmeister’s beautiful Jin Shin Jyutsu Self Help books 1 and 2, which are said to contain the essence of this “Art of the Creator through Compassionate Man.”

“I find that animals are more in tune and more sensitive to touch than many humans. Working with the animals refines your touch and heightens your sensitivity. Intuitive, inter-species communication is a natural outcome when you understand the idea that you are not Doing anything, but rather “BE-ing with this BE-ing in this gentle and loving Art.” Learning to send this message through your hands is the primary focus of this book.”

The book is really a “picture book” with color diagrams of each step of the flows, showing the adaptations needed to easily work with different size species including: dogs, horses, cats, birds, rabbits, and hamsters. Now in its sixth printing, the book uses colored computer graphics, designed to make the pages clear and accessible, with hands showing the location of each step. Adele has adapted the flows as needed based on the relationships and jobs of the Safety Energy Locks (building blocks of the body) as well as the pathways of the flows. The book also discusses attitudinal and physical differences needed to make the work accessible to our furry friends. There is some important self help included as well, making you more harmonious and better able to share and understand the work.

The book, now with laminated front and back covers, has evolved over the past decades from Adele’s own practice and classes taught through out North America, Central and South America, Europe, and Africa. The bulk of the text of the flows is translated by Matthias Roth into German and French. Complete German translations are available in print for a small fee when ordered from Adele’s Swiss class organizer (Sonja Mueller at [email protected]). The book has also been translated  into Spanish by Tait Duus and is available for purchase on this website.

In order to make the work even more accessible, Adele designed both small and large laminated charts with placements of all the Safety Energy Locks for dogs, horses and cats. Beautifully designed by graphic artist, Iain Searcy these anatomically correct charts make locating and working with the Safety Energy Locks of Jin Shin Jyutsu easy and accessible. They are perfect as an introduction to the work or as an additional aid when using the book “Jin Shin Jyutsu for Your Animal Companion” as well as a helpful learning aid when attending JSJ animal classes.

One may also continue exploring through classes, private sessions and phone consultations. You and your animals will find it deeply rewarding to share the journey.
