Giving my first workshop - in a barn

Saturday I gave my first workshop on the "Bladder Meridian Technique*" at Julie Arkison's Synchrony Farm in Saline. It was a lot of fun, her students were interested and attentive, and Violet -the demo pony- was a gem.






*The Bladder Meridian Technique is the part of the Masterson Method of Integrated Advanced Bodywork. In Chinese medicine there are twelve primary acupuncture meridians in the body. The Bladder Meridian is one of the major acupuncture meridians and has an unique effect on balancing the other acupuncture meridians. 

With this technique we only use air-gap or egg-yolk pressure (no acupuncture involved). It helps humans to better read a particular horse and the horse learns how to read the particular human. It gets both on the same page. It gives the human a sense on how their horse is going to respond to touch, and the horse will get an immediate sense of what he can expect from this interaction. Along the way the horse will let the human know where it is guarding tension and will begin to release that tension. 

Just wondering - could that be applied to management training (better understanding, letting go of tension)? Probably not, it would be a lawsuit waiting to happen  - touching involved!!
