Hello all!
Hope this finds you well. Yesterday in Connective Tissue we discovered the wonderful Psoas. I have been looking forward to this class because over the years I've heard about the importance of this guy (maybe a gal). It was surprising to me how many people in the class had some kind of reaction to having their psoas touched. Isn't it amazing how powerful this stuff can be!
Went to a talk at UF last night on Compassion and Medicine. Really cool stuff. The speaker lived in Nepal at a base camp for Mt. Everest to help climbers in trouble and also worked with the locals. He learned a lot about compassion and healing from the local Buddhists elders. The speaker (Dr. David Shlim; book entitled, “Compassion and Medicine”) is now trying to bring compassion to the medical profession, because lord knows it's lacking in the current system. It occurred to me as I was walking back to my car after the talk that as massage therapists we have a real opportunity to bring compassion to healing and reducing suffering. What a great profession we are in.
Lastly, for all interested, the Class Photo of the wonderful Winter Class of 2007 is now proudly displayed right next to Adam's office. Coming out of the library, you can't miss it (us). I miss you guys! Please stay in touch!
Yours,
Greg

Greg,
Thanks so much for keeping in touch and keeping us in touch with what we learned about, seems like so long ago, but then again not so long ago. I haven't heard from Lora yet, send me her info when you get a chance.
I have been busy working on Hope Scents Products to sell and working at the Spa in the office.
Take care.
Hope
