Acupressure for Emotional Healing
The ancient art of acupressure energizes the body and mind using the same pressure points utilized in acupuncture. Performed without needles, acupressure is a painless therapy that can aid in recovery from emotional trauma.

Sea of Tranquility
-
In the middle of the breastbone, the Sea of Tranquility lessens panic and levels out emotional imbalances. Apply a light amount of pressure on this point using the middle finger.
Joining of the Valleys
-
The Joining of the Valleys is centered on the top of the hand, in the webbed patch of skin that unites the forefinger and thumb; its precise location is at the highest spot of the muscle when the two fingers come together. Pressing this area calms the body and eases grief.
Heavenly Palace
-
For issues of self-esteem, locate the Heavenly Palace on the upper arm, one handwidth down from the armpit. Apply pressure to the indentation between the shoulder muscles and the biceps.
Moving Between
-
The Moving Between point is situated between the big and second toes, a few centimeters from the webbed area that bridges the two digits. This spot heals anger and rage.
Shining Sea
-
Located on the inner part of the foot, exactly beneath the middle of the anklebone, is the Shining Sea. Pressing this point quells feelings of fear.
