The combined efforts and the decades of background development and observations from Janet and Erik, that the stimuli of the major systems in the body influence the quality of how we live, is a formula that has the potential to enhance people’s lives.
The 2 Seahorses is a website to which Janet and Erik bring their collective experiences, research and resources from the world of sport & activity, physical education, exercise & health, movement fitness & stability, self-care, relaxation and stress reduction generally. Additionally, Janet has trained in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and would bring this attention to her reflexology practice. The focus is on a mind-body approach with awareness of our emotional health in taking care of yourself through self-responsible decisions and actions which lead to fulfilling your potential and support keeping active and mobile and in-balance both emotionally and physically. Erik and Janet love watching a variety of sports, dance, games. Erik moved from being a Canadian decathlete and jumps specialist into coaching and educating. He also worked in occupational health and notably designed a specialised system for stress debriefing. Janet worked as a former Physical Education specialist (in the UK and overseas) and Sport Development & Coaching Lecturer before moving into a quality assurance role in both higher education and a legal regulator. They engage with recent research on all aspects of movement literacy and the emotional benefits of being mobile, ‘in balance’ and stress-free. Janet and Erik have always been interested in complementary therapies and their impact and benefits on the emotions and the body.
