The Art in its Simplicity
Throughout humankind’s history, words have been used to influence the way we think and feel.
In the Art of Jin Shin, words often convey unconventional meaning and significance. Mary Burmeister was a master of linguistics, and she deliberately chose words or phrases that invoke thoughtful consideration.
The JSG Academy takes the initiative of developing and making available a glossary of terms embedded in the Art’s philosophy and teaching. The purpose is to contribute to the Art’s simplicity. Terminology should not complicate the way to our understanding of the Art.
Art of Jin Shin: A to Z is a collaborative tool. Members of the Jin Shin Guild are welcome to contribute new entries or make amendments to the existing ones. All contributions will be subject to an assessment process, coordinated by JSG’s Lead Instructors, before publication is authorized.
