Fantastic. Again, thank you so much for sharing some of your time. I know you've got an incredible story and really, really interesting subject that I know that our listeners would love to hear and understand and figure out a little bit more about how this amazing stuff actually happens. First up, for all of our listeners that may not be familiar with you or your work, I'd love it if you could just tell us a little bit about yourself, please.

Well, I've been teaching craniosacral therapy for as long as I remember. Actually, it started in 1990. That's an exact date. I still remember that. I've been doing nothing else since then. I had a practice for about 20 years. Then while I was teaching also, but the rest of the time up to now I just teach craniosacral therapy a little bit all over the world. We just came back from Taiwan where we taught a month, and then we go to Mexico next week for a 10-day class, Italy, Prague, the Netherlands, and US, of course. I published one book about craniosacral. I happen to have it here next to me. It's Craniosacral Therapy for Babies and Small Children. That's a little bit the only book that's available about that subject. Soon, another one is going to come out a little more about also craniosacral, of course. I'm just teaching craniosacral. That's what I do.
