Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. There is a Zen story about a farmer whose horse runs away."How terrible," says his neighbor. "Maybe," the farmer replies.The horse returns the next day, bringing three wild horses with it. "How wonderful!" says the neighbor. "Maybe," the farmer says again.His son tries to ride one of the horses and breaks his leg. "How terrible." "Maybe." Soon after, the army comes through, conscripting every able-bodied young man for war - except the farmer's son, whose broken leg saves him.Most of us have heard some version of this story. Few of us have understood what the farmer actually knew.Maybe is not resignation. It's not detachment, and it isn't positive thinking wearing a Zen costume. It's something more exacting: the willingness to stay in full contact with what's actually happening, without collapsing it into a verdict before you've felt it completely.That single move - the pause before the verdict - turns out to be the only real agency any of us has. Not agency over outcomes. Reality doesn't answer to us. But agency over how we meet what arrives.This book traces that practice through the places it matters most: the story you've written about yourself, the people you love, and the raw, unmanageable fact of impermanence itself. It moves through real loss - including the author's own, tested against the hardest material first, not just the easy stuff - and comes out the other side with something more durable than comfort.The verdict is the source of most of the suffering in your life. Not the events. The verdict about the events.This is a short book. It does not need to be long. Like the teaching it's built around, it says one true thing, and says it completely.Drawing on decades of work in contemplative and somatic traditions - Thich Nhat Hanh, Ron Kurtz, the wisdom of dharma alongside the rigor of direct inquiry - Michael Gibian offers a practice that doesn't ask you to believe anything. Only to look, carefully, at your own experience, and see if it's true. This item is printed on demand.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Structural Thai Bodywork: A Psychostructural ApproachThai bodywork is usually taught as technique: sequences, stretches, pressure points. This book teaches something different.Drawing on over three decades of practice and twenty-five years of teaching, Michael Gibian presents a framework that treats myofascial structure, nervous system regulation, and self-organization not as separate systems that influence each other, but as three expressions of one body-mind whole. This is the psychostructural approach.You'll learn to read the body through the lens of Anatomy Trains, work with the precision of deep tissue therapy, and stay attuned to the nervous system and psychological patterns your hands encounter along the way. Rather than asking you to choose between structural rigor and somatic sensitivity, this book shows you how to work with both at once.Across nineteen chapters, you'll find: - A clear anatomical map of the body's myofascial lines, covering the Superficial Back Line, Superficial Front Line, Lateral Line, Spiral Line, Arm Lines, and Deep Front Line individually, each with high-resolution reference charts- Session structures that move from global work to targeted line work to resolving compensatory patterns- A dedicated framework for understanding and treating compensatory loops- Embodiment practices to sharpen your own presence and touch- Physiology grounded in real clinical understanding, not academic abstraction- A full glossary and appendices for reference- Video demonstrations accessible throughout via QR codeWho this book is forMassage therapists, bodyworkers, physical therapists, yoga therapists, and movement teachers who want a more integrated way of working with the body. Whether you're new to Thai bodywork or have practiced for years, this book offers a framework for understanding what your hands are already sensing.About the authorMichael Gibian has practiced bodywork since 1989 and taught since 1999. He trained directly under Chongkol (John) Setthakorn and Ajahn Sintorn Chaichakan in the Thai bodywork tradition, and draws on Tom Myers' Anatomy Trains, Ron Kurtz's Hakomi method, and yoga therapy in his teaching. He teaches through the Kali Institute in Santa Barbara, California, and maintains a private practice there. He is also the author of the Five Keys series.…
