Shiatsu and The Art of Bird Watching
By Tony JD Brown I am a bit of a bad bird watcher. I can recognise a few species but for me recognition is not the whole point of the exercise. I just enjoy watching the birds in their natural habitat. Birds in their natural habitat tend not to hang around or parade themselves in front of the binoculars to make identification easy. Often all you get is a fleeting glimpse, a distant view or just a call. Even so it is still possible to identify the bird by getting a sense of its giss. The giss of a bird is its general impression size and shape. It is taking those features you managed to recognise in that brief instant the bird was there and building up the bigger picture. It is the ability to recognise the whole bird from putting together the clues. In a Shiatsu treatment one often only has access to small clues to a patients condition. Ki is like a bird and does not hang around waiting for you to analyse its condition. Ki moves freely and our response to Ki has to be spontaneous. Unlike a Western doctor the Shiatsu practitioner cannot resort to detailed tests to come to a diagnosis. How they talk, hold themselves or the fleeting connection to an emotion. In Shiatsu one has only the client in front of you. To be a bad birdwatcher is one thing but to be the best Shiatsu practitioner one has to develop a sense of the giss of Ki.
