Seva Stress Release
Resources to support the practice of this Insight Acupressure formula, developed after 9-11-01 by the former Soul Lightening International Faculty for use with rescue workers. The Seva Stress Release has evolved into a self-care acupressure release and can be learned for use with family, friends and others.
"Seva" is Sanskrit for Compassionate Service.
