Jin Shin Jyutsu classes with Carlos Gutterres Oct 2017 – Nov 2019

I had the good fortune to be able to attend a Now Know Myself class in Louisville, Kentucky, last year, where Carlos was one of the instructors (together with Jill Pasquinelli and Michael Wenninger). It was a really interesting class, and I hope to be able to get to a class with Carlos again. A friend of mine went to one of his 5 day classes, and said that she had a lot of “aha-moments”…
Here are some words about him, from the jsjinc.net page:

https://www.jsjinc.net/bio.php?id=5

Carlos Gutterres is a Jin Shin Jyutsu 5-day class and Now Know Myself instructor.He is from Brazil and was born in Porto Alegre. Since he was very young he has had a deep interest in the mysteries of nature and the human being, and throughout his life he has pursued the study of philosophy, psychology, numerology, astrology, and Kabbalah. He has been associated with several philanthropic and spiritual organizations, including one that he founded.

After working in industry for two decades, he felt he needed a channel to express everything he had been studying. He found this channel in the healing arts, first learning flower essence therapy and becoming a researcher and practitioner, then Reiki, and finally Jin Shin Jyutsu. He developed a flower essences system called Vida. He is the author of many articles and the book, A New Purpose of Vibrational Healing. As a student and practitioner of Jin Shin Jyutsu in Brazil, he has been committed to sharing awareness of the Art through articles, talks, interviews, self help classes and study groups throughout the country.

Carlos lives on a ranch near Porto Alegre with his wife, Vivian, where he enjoys contact with nature, and in this peaceful place continues his studies.He has three children from his first marriage: Daniel, Leonardo, and Vivian.

And here you can find his classes (it will probably be a lot more classes in 2019, than the classes posted right now):

Jin Shin Jyutsu classes with Wayne Hackett, Oct 2017 – Nov 2019

I’ve been to several classes with Wayne Hackett, I think it’s 4 or 5 – if you have a chance to take a class with him I really recommend it! The dates for the classes here are up to Nov 2019, but I’m sure there will be more classes than those already mentioned, as he likes to travel 🙂
Here are some words about him from the jsjinc.net page:

https://www.jsjinc.net/bio.php?id=16

Wayne Hackett was born and raised in California, graduating from high school in Tehachapi, California.He attended Abilene Christian University in Abilene, Texas, where he majored in pre-dental studies.He was accepted into the University of Oregon Dental School;however, later chose to return to Abilene Christian University, where he received a B.S. Ed degree, specializing in the sciences and secondary education.In Texas, he worked in both state and private institutions as a teacher/counselor.

In 1972, he moved to Boulder, Colorado, where his interest turned towards holistic health and education. Structural integration (the work of Dr. Ida P. Rolf) shaped and focused much of his early study. On November 14, 1977, Wayne met Mary Burmeister, who has been his teacher and inspiration since that day.

Wayne currently makes his home on the Island of Kauai in Hawaii, where he continues his Jin Shin Jyutsu study and maintains a private practice. Wayne travels extensively, presenting Jin Shin Jyutsu lectures in the United States and throughout the world.He has a particular fascination with the esoteric significance of symbols (numbers) and cosmic geometry (planetary relationships).

And here you can find his classes:

Macrobiotic opportunities

If you are reading my blog regularly you have probably understood by now that Jin Shin Jyutsu is one big theme, but the importance of food is another big theme 🙂
I have been a vegetarian for many many years (not anymore, though), doing raw food a while, which was really good. But I feel when I stopped eating gluten some years ago, that made a very big difference in my health. So I am trying to eat as little grain as possible, if there’s gluten in it, and not eating anything at all with wheat, barley and rye, trying to stay away from oats and corn as much as I can too, even if it is said that it’s not that bad…

And I am exploring the world of macrobiotic food, trying to learn to cook new things and get inspired by going to different cooking classes – last June I was in the southwest of England, at Oliver Cowmeadow’s school, for a 5 day class, it was really helpful to “get on track” to participate in this 5 day class. He is giving those classes regularly during the year, and he has also a longer version (during 2-3 years), where you can go really deep into the macrobiotic world, learning to be a professional macrobiotic cook. Here is his website:
http://www.macroschool.co.uk  

Then, coming back to Sweden I was explore a little bit more what possibilities there was here, Karin Fredriksson is giving classes in Stockholm, she also give 5 day classes, but her classes is one day at a time, stretched over a year, sort of, because she wants to use the food that is available at different seasons (which is an important principle in the macrobiotic thinking…)
So I have been at some of these classes, and will participate later on too, when the classes are happening. And her website is:
http://www.halsosamtliv.se 

Karin has a teacher, Steven Acuff – I haven’t been able to find a website with his classes yet, but he gives lecture a little here and there, and he also made a DVD, I will post more about him when I find more. Here’s a little clip from youtube with him anyway:

Karin has also been traveling a little here and there, to learn new things, she was in Sacramento (or outside, rather) recently, and really recommend this place (Macrobiotic America), with these teachers (Cynthia & David Briscoe) – there’s a class happening 11-13 June, about fermenting, which Karin talks warmly about, but there are also other things happening, and you can find other resources at their website:
http://www.macroamerica.com
