This workshop will give you a completely new view on the heart,
- perhaps it should also be given more attention in your sessions?
The heart is deeply connected to our emotional processing and the way we deal with stressful situations. It is highly beneficial to include the heart in most reflexology sessions, also when no heart pathologies are present.
