Soke Anshu Christa Jacobson - Makibishi

 

 

Here, I’m teaching a lesson on makibishi, at the Budo Ryu Kai Hombu Dojo. The term makibishi (撒き菱 or 撒菱) refers to the Japanese version of the caltrop, which is a sharp spiked object that was used in feudal Japan to slow down pursuers and also was used in the defense of samurai fortifications.

Soke Anshu Christa Jacobson - Grounding Techniques

 


I’m outside practicing some grounding/earthing techniques!
.
Grounding/Earthing is when you make direct skin contact with the Earth (bare feet, hands or other parts of your body). This rebalances the electrical flow and connects your body to the natural electric charge of the earth, transferring electrons into your body.
.
To name a few of the many benefits; some research shows that soaking up electrons can lower inflammation, heals chronic injuries, eases stress, as well as improves sleep!
