SOLESTRY - THE ART OF FOOT READING
A two day course in Foot Reading with Jane Sheehan
Day 1:
Whilst this course is aimed at people with no prior knowledge, Reflexologists will find their previous training an advantage. Delegates will gain a deeper understanding of the way emotional aspects and personality are reflected on the feet. This knowledge can then be used in a therapeutic way by those with counselling skills, or can be used to interest potential clients into learning more about what their feet can tell them, in terms of health or emotional issues. It can also be used as a tool for personal development.
The day will be very intense yet fun. Attendees will need to bring a pen, paper and wear footwear which is conducive to easy removal. They may also want to bring a wet wipe, since whilst they won't be touching the feet, they may want to freshen up first!
The aim of the day is to teach techniques which allow delegates to be able to read emotions and personality from the feet. The techniques will then enable the interpretation of information, to arrive at an answer even when they are presented with something they haven't seen before.
The morning will be spent covering:
- How do you feel about your feet?
- Size, width and length of the feet
- Line from little toe to big toe
- Individual meanings of the toes and the way this can be applied to the vertical zones
- Colour of the skin
- Gaps between toes
- Webbed toes
- Bunions
The afternoon will be spent covering:
- Temperature of the feet
- Skin and related imbalances
- Nails and related imbalances
- Meanings of toe shapes
- Sequence of a treatment
- How to handle a tearful reaction
- Applying the knowledge learned by giving a foot reading
If there is a particular query about something seen on a client's foot, attendees are asked to bring a good, clear photograph of about A4 size to share with the group.
Day 2
This workshop aims to allow those who have already attended the Solestry – The Art of Foot Reading seminar, to practice their new found knowledge in a supportive environment, with an experienced foot reader on hand to answer any questions that arise from the readings. Some people attend this seminar immediately following the previous theory day, although other people attend much later, after practising their skills to fill recognised gaps in their knowledge.
This is very much a "hands-on" workshop. As we can't anticipate what "feet" will show up on the day, a selection of slides have been prepared, just in case we don't have the variety required. However, after two years of running this course we've only had to use the slides of tattoo-ed feet!
Day two will begin with an exercise to explain foot reading (to act as a refresher) and then the rest of the day will be spent reading each other's feet and reporting back to the group the surprise findings. Yes! You can bring and refer to your notes and your books. This is your opportunity to practice and improve your skills.
If there is a particular query about something seen on a client's foot, attendees are asked to bring a good, clear photograph of about A4 size to share with the group.
You will be reading each other's feet and swapping partners throughout the day. There'll be feedback about how to deliver information, how to release emotional blockages and general coaching skills. Consequently, each reading you receive will, as well as giving you ideas about how to do the foot readings effectively, be sending you on your own personal journey of self-discovery. People look very different at the end of the day – more present and more vital.
Be prepared for a very interactive day.
Jane's books "Let's Read Our Feet!" and "The Foot Reading Coach" will be on sale at the seminar.
You will receive an attendance certificate which will be distributed at the end of the day.
