This man is kindness
and soul.
He has the wisdom of a sage,
the curiosity of a child
and the heart of a saint.
And I hear that his massages are the best in town.....

about me
Unfinished...
Love calm, introspective & regenerative solitude mixed with mutually appreciative, respectful & loving friendships, honesty, curiosity ...
Massage Therapist / bodyworker.
Yiquan, Tai Chi & Wuji Qigong practitioner.
Some experience with Bagua Zhang as well, which I'd also love to explore more partner training with other experienced practitioners...
I teach weekly qigong classes on a volunteer basis for low income & elderly people in Berkeley.
And am looking to begin teaching other qigong classes again at other locations - if you know of somewhere in the SF Bay area that would like me to offer qigong classes, let me know.
Time to expand avenues of connecting with, & sharing, my services with a wider network of people.
In support of this, to people with extensive, prosperous business & social connections in the SF Bay area, I am offering free massage sessions in exchange for actively referring me ( my massage practice ) through your business, social & other networks.
If interested in this exchange or talking with me about it, contact me through tribe or email.

Ideal locations include North Berkeley hills, Piedmont, El Cerrito / Albany hills, and other areas that are beautiful, quiet and conducive to beauty and calm.
This is a long post I recognize, and a couple very important points are repeated for clarity. Just wanting to be clear from the start, as living environment is very important and can be either very nurturing, wonderful, harmonious & inspiring, or if poorly matched stressful, draining and unharmonious. If you read through it all, this...

Some semi-random, yet common themed, expressions of universal "truths" I feel to be insightful & inspirational. Worth sharing.
Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves, without any insistence that they satisfy you.

Albert Einstein

So a while back I heard about this guy who has been taking donor bodies and preserving them in various stages of anatomical revelation through a process called plastination. The bodies are then sometimes referred to as "plastinates". Today I took advantage of the proximity of this exhibit, as it is being held at The Tech in San Jose until January 26, 2007 - www.thetech.org/bodyworld/

Re: growing goji berries organically in San Francisco bay area?
(in Edible and medicinal plants of the wild)
Are you open to sharing specifics on how you grow them?
Soil used?
Watering frequency, depth, etc.?/
Light?
Where planted, or in containers or both?
Have you been eating them fresh, and / or drying them for later consumption?
