Testimonial from Roshani 【Ito Thermie Practitioner & Teacher in France】

Roshani MONTMORY – Ito Thermie Practitioner & Teacher in France

It was through the discovery of the Japanese technique of Ito Thermie, 25 years ago, that I had the chance to meet Kohrogi Sensei in France and then in Japan. When Kohrogi Sensei agreed to come to Europe,

I had the chance to organize Advanced Ito Thermie courses for him followed by “Natsukashi” retreats in order to allow practitioners and myself to receive his teaching.
Each of his sessions that we were able to observe or receive was astonishing in freedom, precision, an intense transmission of heat, speed and constantly connected with a deep meditative state.

All these years spent with Kohrogi Sensei have made me understand the close link between Ito Thermie and meditation, presence during a treatment session and the importance of the awareness of being in our hara. But beyond the technique, Kohrogi Sensei allowed us to discover the change in the face of our patient or our partner, which he called “Natsukashi”, “Coming back home” or returning to our original nature.

Over the years, its meditative transmission has brought me very deep within myself, through simple exercises with sound, touch or through the possibility of experiencing ancient Mu meditations. I remember many magical moments where time seemed to stand still, or just the sound of the gong transported us to another place where “past, present, future” were intertwined until we felt this gratitude towards life for just being totally « here and now ».

 Being in the presence of Kohrogi Sensei is at the same time very simple, like a friend you have met again and whom you have not seen for a long time, but it is also a state of grace, a change of inner vision, a deep understanding of the meaning of life, so important in the times we are currently going through.

He said: “In fact all the events of your life happen to you so that you can recognize each time the fact that you are alive. »

What I understood is that whatever life brings us, whatever we do, whatever we perceive, we always come back to ourselves, to the center of ourselves. And in this center is “Natsukashi”. In this center is illumination. That which does not move, that which does not change, that which is immutable. What never dies…What I call the flame, the indivisible spark of life…
Kohrogi Sensei guides us to this space and it is a priceless gift to be able to meet him. »
