Jo Barker

I live with my family near Canterbury. I am a very creative person. I love people and I love the land. Kinesiology is a calling and Permaculture a passion

Permaculture

Permaculture has been my life’s passion. This holistic process is a holistic sustainable design system. By learning to observe design principles found in nature we can apply them to any problem. Add in Permaculture ethics (People care, earth care & fair share) and the design will likely be very effective and sustainable. there I aim to connect kinesiology with Permaculture.

I now hold a Diploma in Permaculture. I teach introductory weekends and specialise in forest garden design and Applied Permaculture.  and work as a LAND titor, a diploma tutor,
 

My experience of Permaculture
I  trained and worked as a Landscape Architect.
I have worked with the land energetically through dousing, sensing, and connecting for nearly 20 years. Now I am drawn to work with people in a healing context too.

With more than 20 years of self development I have encountered many therapies and feel most drawn to people centred and vibrational healing. I have worked with the land energetically through dousing, sensing, and connecting.

My experience of Kinesiology / Life Tracking…

I has been practising muscle checking since the mid 1990’s and began professional training for Kinesiology in 2003.

My preferred way to work is to feel a thread or journey intuitively. I encourage and ‘skilfully’ I hope, guide the person I am working with to lead me. It is this listening /awareness that is essential to the healing  journey.

I also work with the land. 

Life Coaching

I qualified with a certificate in Life Coaching in 2003.  I incorporate Creative Kinesiology when I can. I spent nearly 2 years working a a Community Business Coach with economically inactive individuals.
 

Creative Kinesiology
Working co-creatively with the client this kinesiology goes in depth working with the many layers, dimensions and levels of the body, mind, emotions and spirit. I have trained in 'The Way of the Tracker' a professional training developed by Psychotherapist and Shaman practitioner Carrie Joss.

Life Tracking
A new, dynamic approach to personal growth through the use of energy work and understanding. it is designed to help people find their way forward - their track in life. This could be described as Carrie Joss's life work.

Thought Field Therapy
The tapping therapy uncovered by Roger Callahan. Powerful, quick and effective this transforms emotional energy. I constantly witness emotions transform from fear, anxiety and grief to peace. I find this very easy to do and often use it every day with a client, friend or on myself.

Touch for Health.
This is the most widely used system of kinesiology in the world. It is the foundation training for many branches of kinesiology as well as a healing modality in its own right. This was developed by Dr. John Thie with a vision to make Kinesiology available for everyone.

Educational Kinesiology- Brain Gym
An effective and simple way of re-educating the body and brain. It uses easy to learn movements developed by Paul Dennison PhD, an educationalist from the US. It is becoming popular in schools.
