That's my feeling too. And now you write about your hands as having that ability to sense and heal, again in the most honest way. Takes me back to my days as a movement teacher when i used to get students to do lots of tactile work with hands. And feet as well. Massaging with feet was always amazing for them. They couldn't believe how sensitive and versatile their feet could be.Steve Capelinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14838386764407644146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378105946451084472.post-57683075080310961632010-03-17T15:22:14.278-07:002010-03-17T15:22:14.278-07:00Jennifer: my hands are SO practical.

I sure wish you lived nearby :-)<br /><br />I've never had any training, but I'm told by my family that I'm a pretty good masseuse and back scratcher.
