The Healing Fingers

The Healing Fingers

We all use touch for therapy – when we think, we put our chin on our fist, and when we’re uncomfortable, we rub our hands together as if we’re cold.

To use this technique, all you have to do is make a fist around the finger that’s connected to the sensation or body-part you wish to soothe, and slowly apply pressure to it for 3-5 minutes while breathing deeply. If you want to balance your whole body, simply do it for each finger on both hands.
