JOSHUA J BERRY HEALING ARTS

Joshua J Berry Healing arts:

                                                                                                                               EMBODIED HEALING ARTS & COACHING

​I offer a chance to dive deep into who you are, what you are here to do  and guide you on the path to empowerment, embodiment and self creation. I use many tools that I have learned along the way to hold a space for discovery and guidance along our journey together.



I believe we all have medicine to share , a unique voice and reason that we are here in the physical plane. Many of us have lost connection to the natural and supernatural worlds and by extension ourselves, our spirit, the part of us that knows why we came here.

My work is to guide you back to yourself and to that deep purpose.  

This means truly feeling all the parts of you that have been left behind, buried, hurt, shamed, traumatized or just plain ignored. These aspects of yourself are being asked, calling out to be seen and felt, to be brought out of the darkness into the light. When we avoid feeling the things that are uncomfortable or even acknowledging them, we are doomed to repeat them in unconscious patterns reflected in our beliefs, thoughts, 
relationships, partnerships and behaviors.  

​My love is to guide you back into alignment, integrating all aspects of yourself as a whole, aligning you with your true purpose. I will guide you to look at the parts of you that you would rather not and to feel them in all their messiness, in all their discomfort. I am going to ask you to truly feel and love yourself in a way that has probably never been asked of you.

I will bring you through the portals of your own discomfort and pain to find the unbounded joy on the other side. To feel life in all it's full expression is 
what brings us wholeness, I will show you that feeling all of life is about going into the darkness and making lifelong friends with it. This is radical love, a spiritual revolution of sorts, a returning to ourselves.

Many of us are being called to rise up into a new way of being, a new earth, to shed the patterns of a patriarchial, industrialized world where many of us have become disconnected from the natural world, the world of magic, spirit and play and ultimately disconnected to our own divine power and knowing. I am here for those that are being called to reclaim their sovereignty, reclaim their own wisdom free from limiting and harmful practices.

​How am I going to do that you ask?

By giving you a container which it is safe to feel deeply, allowing yourself to connect in with your true nature. The nature that exists around you also exists within you, there is no separation, but most of us have forgotten. Many of us are waking up to what is truly important, but we have to slow down to truly hear, to truly be. 

All of us to some degree have been influenced by the culture of the country we grew up in, the family environment we grew up, in the religious environment we were exposed to, the financial situations that our parents and community reflected to us. Even if we have fought them, they usually persist. These are ancestral patterns that have been passed on through our genes, through our modeled behavior and most of us developed new ones along the way in order to survive.  Much of the industrialized world has been disconnected from the natural rhythms of the earth and nature. This has created a world of people who generally do not know themselves or the life around them. The more we value life and all aspects of ourselves we start to see the diversity of the natural world. Nothing is a waste, nothing isn't useful, we all serve a purpose. To embrace ourselves fully gives us the opportunity to embrace the world and life in all its' succulence. In order to change them we first have to be aware of them and honor them, how they came to be, how they allowed us to survive and then we can see if they are still useful or not. We don't just throw out the trash, this isn't a battle to win.  It is a process of discovery to truly inhabit ourselves.

Are you ready to show up and truly see yourself?

It can be messy but I offer to give you the skills to listen, to find resilience, to rediscover curiosity, to connect with the nature around us, to learn how to access our true self, our energy, our desires our knowing and act upon it when needed.
I teach versatile movement, energy and spiritual practices that help you to stay embodied through many different lenses. I offer guidance from my deep experience in:
 
Embodied Bodywork
​Qi Gong
Tai Ji
Yoga Asana
Pranayama and Breathwork
Mobility and Movement 
Ritual

I offer a customized path to the depths of this mystical existence in a practical, simple but rich journey. I teach you how to access the energy of the universe that is free to all of us willing to surrender. I offer to help you navigate this journey with the tools and resilience to stay the course.

Covid -19 Update. As of May 18th,  Governor Abbot has legally released Massage Therapists to work. I also understand that not everyone is so keen to get back to "normal" and are concerned about safety, among other things.  There are a lot of feelings around the Pandemic and a lot of us have been through quite a shift in the last few months. On my end my Partner and I have no childcare for the moment. So, I am slowly opening up my schedule as we figure out things moving ahead. It is easier to reach out to me directly to schedule right now (text, email or phone) instead of scheduling online since there are a lot of moving parts on my end.

I am also offering live and livestream yoga classes through Yoga East Austin (www.yogaeastaustin.com). You can check their website to get an up to date schedule. I will continue to update the situation as it evolves. I hope everyone is staying as safe and healthy as possible.



I am grateful for all of you who have supported me over the years. It means a lot to me and my family.

With Gratitude,
Joshua



​Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT #103347), Certified Myoskeletal Alignment Therapist, Wu Dang External Qi Healer, Wu Dang Tai Ji Instructor, Yi Jing Consultant, Chi Nei Tsang Practitioner, Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT 200)

Joshua offers transformative healing services to help you live life fully. He is a gifted bodyworker well versed in the physical and energetic arts. He is a seasoned movement artist with a background in Qi Gong, Tai Ji, Capoeira, Yoga as well as a mix of other martial arts, dance and  shamanic practices. He is passionate about helping you be present in your body and offering guidance on how to maintain your health and balance.

His Bodywork and Therapeutic Massage addresses the fascia, muscles and connective tissue to help you find structural balance. He primarily uses Myofascial Release, Myoskeletal Alignment Technique, various forms of Active Therapy, Chi Nei Tsang (Chinese Visceral Qi Gong Massage), Zero Balancing, CranioSacral Therapy and a wide variety of influences he has picked up over the years. He is heavily influenced by Thomas Myers and his Anatomy Trains for a structural, more western view, but is heavily influenced by Traditional Chinese Medicine's model of the Five Elements, Yin and Yang and the system of meridians on the energetic, more Eastern side of things. By bringing the structure of the body back into balance, we allow ourselves the support and ease that we need to create healthy movement. By engaging and addressing how we approach the more subtle ways in which we use our energy, we create peace of mind, balance and harmony.

Joshua has extensive experience with chronic and acute pain issues such as:
low back pain
sciatic pain
neck pain
shoulder pain
knee pain
scoliosis
pre - surgery preparation (knee and hip replacements, spinal surgeries)
post surgerical recovery (laminectomies, spinal fusions, knee and hip replacements)
thoracic outlet syndrome 
nerve impingement issues
​golfer's/tennis elbow
pre and post workout/race preparation/recovery
post abdominal surgery recovery (c-section, hernia, hysterectomy)
ankle & wrist issues
migraines/headaches
TMJ syndrome
post natal recovery

CranioSacral Therapy (CST)is a light touch therapy, based on Cranial Osteopathy, that can create dramatic improvements in your life. It is a gentle , hands on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the Craniosacral system, comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. Using a soft touch, generally no greater than 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the Craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system. By complementing the body's natural healing process, CST is increasingly used as a preventative health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction.


External Qi Healing (EQH) is an ancient Shamanic Taoist Healing art. It uses the Qi (bioelectric energy of the body and the universe) to free up energetic and physical blocks in the body. This often creates a felling of wellbeing, ease, clarity and focus while energizing the whole system. It is an ancient art that utilizes the abundant energy of the natural world to help ourselves heal. It draws upon the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Taoist philosophy. It also is great for people who are very sensitive to touch and who finds more traditional bodywork overwhelming or aggressive. This system has been passed down from Master Yun Xiang Tseng (Chen), 14th generation Zhang San Feng lineage, 25th generation Dragon Gate branch (Longmen sect) lineage, authorized to practice and teach the authentic Wu Dang Taoist teachings that have passed on in an unbroken living tradition for 700 years.

EQH can be beneficial for people who are feeling stuck in any areas of their lives, for those who suffer lingering pain or health issues that don't seem to go away with little to no help from Western Medicine or pharmaceutical treatments. I have found it in my practice
 (in conjunction with psychotherapy or somatic therapy) to be very useful for people who have been through traumatic events such as a sudden loss of a loved one or depression. It resets the nervous system allowing the body to relax, and strengthens the immune system.

Chi Nei Tsang is an Asian form of bodywork that uses Taoist concepts of looking at the internal organs, their associated meridians and emotions. It addresses the internal organs of the body with a gentle form of manipulation that frees up the fascia, lymph and nerves around the internal organs. Key in the training of  Chi New Tsang is the use of Qi Gong (Qi: the Chinese concept of bioelectric energy, Gong: the continued, diligent practice of something in order to attain a high level of skill ) to energetically affect the balance of the organs. In Taoist Medicine (from Ancient Chinese culture) the organs can be affected by emotions, the surrounding environment and by diet among other things. Of course it is also very beneficial for those that have digestion issues, Crohn's Disease, IBS, those who have had abdominal surgeries, or women who have had children, whether Cesearean or Natural. It is very useful for breaking up adhesions in the abdominal fascia and for making space around the organs, which is especially beneficial after pregnancy.  
It can be very helpful for anyone who is seeking balance and awareness in their body, mind and spirit
 
Tai Ji and Qi Gong teaches you how to build and harness your energy while re-establishing healthy movement patterns. It is an ancient system that develops coordination, balance, freedom of movement and focus. Joshua teaches the Wudang style of Tai Ji and Qi Gong as taught to him by Master Yun Xiang Tseng (Chen). It is excellent for people who are looking for balance and ease in their life, no matter what age or level of health. It is a great compliment to athletes to train with more ease and flow. It greatly improves any other physical activity while giving your mind space to enjoy the experience. It is a practice that know no boundaries and limit of depth.

Hatha Yoga and Pranayama can help free up the physical body to make space in the body and build your strength, balance and equilibrium. It is an ancient tool that helps cultivate the coordination of breath and movement, and for finding the balance between strength and flexibility. It opens up energy and emotions in the body allowing for ease of movement and an ease to the flow of your life. Pranayama is the science of breath that helps us open up our energy centers (cakras) and helps us activate and strengthen untapped energy.

Yi Jing (or I Ching) is known as The Book Of Changes. It is one of the oldest known written manuscripts in the world. It is based on an ancient system of divination that gives you insight and direction into  to the many choices we have to make on  a daily basis. It also gives you self knowledge into the strength and weaknesses of your personality, unique gifts and gives you ways to find balance. It gives you insight into the timing and  patterns of the universe and how they relate to you and your life. Joshua is a 26th Generation Long Men Yi Jing consultant.


Joshua offers an overall  holistic health guidance program to cater to your personal goals.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"I've been seeing Joshua for a couple of years now. He provides a safe container, and a surprisingly broad frame of reference. He says just what I need to hear and responds to the changes in my physical experience with ​uncanny skill. His calm presence and devotion to his practice are complemented by the way (beyond my comprehension) he is able to "read" energy with his hands. My levels of pain and anxiety are reduced considerably and often entirely in these sessions." Pamela L
