Hello world!

Welcome to my Body Listening WordPress website. This is my first post.  First: an introduction of WHY I made this site:

Originally I was going to use this site to advertise a service/skill/talent that I used to love to do for others, but really what I want this site to be for is a place you can come to, to relax!   and a place for you to help tips and ideas on how to learn about YOUR OWN BODY…..   I made this site as a way for me to connect to you for when I am not available right to you in person.!  I hope to provide you  tips and hints and ideas and recommendations of products, books and resources to help you LISTEN to you own body and to bodies and minds of those around you.   so you can better communicate with yourself and with the world around you…

so, who am I ?  well, hello, My name is …

Krin,and I have been listening to people’s bodies since before I could remember…I am told I started being fascinated by and working on people’s bodies, practicing the art of massage and listening even as young as 2/3 years of age, working on any person that would allow me to do so…

When I was in college, at parties, I’d plop myself down on the back of  a couch and would often instantly have a line ‘out the door’ of people waiting for their turn at a massage.  It was my way of getting to meet people on a completely whole different level,because as we had a conversation or as we conversed with the people around us, my hands and body heard a whole different dialogue going on in the people I was massaging.

It was not until I was in my 20’s until I realized that just giving away free massages all the time was not a sustainable way of living… but even still it was hard for me to charge people because I didn’t want to take advantage of a gift that at the time I thought should be free and available to everyone… but I was finally convinced to go to massage school to get a license where ironically I ended up nearly completely destroyiing my right arm..  I was told my several physical therapists and doctors that i would never be able to do deep tissue or swedish masasge again..stubbornly I kept going until I had a few uncomfortable instances in the “paid” world of people thinkng I was offering something other then massage.. so finally I decided it was time to take a break and listen to my own body and heal,, and slowly learn how to listen to people’s bodies in different ways other then the traditional massage..  and over the years, I have combined my knowledge gained from years of experience, massage school, and my own treatment of myself and many other misc sources to create a style unique and specialized for each individual person and each individual session…  Though you may find similarities to other modalities, you are probably not likely to find a style quite like my own..

I invite you to come on in & look around here on this website which I am creating to for you to help provide you tools,  ideas,  and resources on how to both listen and care for your own body-mind connection to your self, to the mindbody connections of those you love, to your enemies and to the world around you.         Come in, come in, and look around and read, listen to some new ideas.   Find within these posts many wonderful links to tools and resources that will help you on your journey.

Come try it out..  be inspired.  love.. and be alive…
