I'm still not sure I'll ever be a ZB practitioner but I've appreciated the whole approach.<BR/><BR/>I've not heard the term "somatic work". I've also trained in Health Kinesiology and at one point was a Reiki and Seichem master. I've also worked with flower essences a lot, dreams and Shamanic trance.<BR/><BR/>JN - <BR/><BR/>Amazon let you list for free - ebay do very occassionally but you have to be alert to their special offers. <BR/><BR/>Amazon's listing is for 60 days and you can renew for free. Ebay's listing is for a maximum of 10 days and if you don't sell the first time but relist and sell the second time you'll get one lot of listing fees refunded (I think ... I haven't checked recently)<BR/><BR/>Amazon have a fixed p&p allowance - which means the minimum anyone can pay for a book is £2.75 + 1p.<BR/>Ebay let you set your own p&p and some people are extremely greedy! But ebay does have a rule that it shouldn't be unreasonable - that doesn't seem to be policed well.<BR/><BR/>I've sold lots of books on ebay and the problem is listing - there is no easy way to list, you have to upload your own pictures and describe the books yourself - on amazon it is MUCH faster. So given that this time I have over 60 books to sell (now over 70) I chose amazon as the only practical way to get them listed.<BR/>And so far I've sold 4.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05635758748108011584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16297785.post-1162151491165013782006-10-29T19:51:00.000+00:002006-10-29T19:51:00.000+00:00Thanks for the tips on Amazon book selling - one d...Thanks for the tips on Amazon book selling - one day I will thin out the bookshelves.

I'm a somatic practitioner (Licensed massage therapist in Ohio, US, but displaced originally from Scotland), and have taken the ZB Core I. I love it and think it's fantastic stuff.<BR/><BR/>Interesting that your hands were pretty sore from the class. Was this Core I? Was it holding the fulcrums that was straining you.<BR/><BR/>It's also interesting that you used a skeleton to practice ZB on. Was this to practice the protocol?<BR/><BR/>Not trying to sound like I'm spamming, but I've discussed ZB with respects to somatic work on the blog I operate at somatodo.com. I'd love to have your input on some articles. I'm about to put one up discussing why I think there are 5 layers of energy in the body rather than 3.<BR/><BR/>I look forward to reading more of your ZB experiences.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16297785.post-1161959429356757892006-10-27T15:30:00.000+01:002006-10-27T15:30:00.000+01:00Good parody not bad!I'd like to know about the onl...Good parody not bad!<BR/><BR/>I'd like to know about the online bookswap please.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05635758748108011584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16297785.post-1161952215712531022006-10-27T13:30:00.000+01:002006-10-27T13:30:00.000+01:00and i read the curious dog and i did not like it. ...and i read the curious dog and i did not like it. apart from the maths conundrums and i liked those. and i buy most books on amazon too. and we also joined an online bookswap. and i can let you have the address. and you can swap books with people. and it is cheaper than amazon because it is not capitalist. and i prefer that.<BR/><BR/>a poor parody of haddon. ;o)<BR/><BR/>bookswap is quite good though my missus uses it more than me. essentially, you're just finding the postage which under the new tariffs isn't too bad, I think.Ian russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11106519805045337505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16297785.post-1161936764521361352006-10-27T09:12:00.000+01:002006-10-27T09:12:00.000+01:00Tinker - I've sold things through ebay before and ...Tinker - I've sold things through ebay before and found it a hassle - at least it doesn't cost me anything to actually list things on Amazon even if they do take a fairly large chunk once sold. <BR/><BR/>I've just posted about the books available. I find it helps my hips a lot and the person who recommended it to me in the first place uses it keep her hips sorted.

I'm glad yours are selling well, though. <BR/>Love the synchronicity. Is there a website or book that explains about zero balance? If it works on bones, that's something my husband's hip could definitely use.<BR/>If we can get re-financed we're thinking of doing some remodeling, too. Must be going around. :)<BR/>Love the Eden Project art.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16297785.post-1161934498154426552006-10-27T08:34:00.000+01:002006-10-27T08:34:00.000+01:00How could I ever forget you Mr Nomad?How could I ever forget you Mr Nomad?Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05635758748108011584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16297785.post-1161934222242219182006-10-27T08:30:00.000+01:002006-10-27T08:30:00.000+01:00Remember me when you make your first million....ch...Remember me when you make your first million....charity is always very becoming of the rich!!<BR/><BR/><BR/>I like the artwork!Reluctant Nomadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16093595869651355616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16297785.post-1161932012309949252006-10-27T07:53:00.000+01:002006-10-27T07:53:00.000+01:00Thanks Andrea but I'm just selling my old stuff no...Thanks Andrea but I'm just selling my old stuff not going into business - however this morning I've discovered another book has sold so the trip to the post office will be worth while!<BR/><BR/>Hmm... what was the name of that accountant?Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05635758748108011584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16297785.post-1161901924093555502006-10-26T23:32:00.000+01:002006-10-26T23:32:00.000+01:00And if you need an accountant I know one in Bath.....And if you need an accountant I know one in Bath... :)<BR/><BR/>Seriously, you are inspiring me to think about listing some of my books on Amazon.com.
