Illinois Premiere Edition Spring 2010 Cover Photo by David Kilian Illinois Premiere Edition Spring 2010 Cover photo by David Kilian. Models: Laura Landseidel, Josette Chmiel, Lemuel Sherman PERG is published by Dynamic Equilibrium 309 Oakwood Court Youngsville, NC 27596 919-562-1548 • [email protected] www.ProEdResourceGuide.com Design by Killer Creative Group, Raleigh, NC 919.832.5073 killercreativegroup.com Dear Colleagues, It is my pleasure to bring you the premiere edition of the Illinois Professional Education & Resource Guide. The fi rst issue of the PERG came out in North Carolina, my home state, in January 2006 and was an instant success. It’s been a real community builder here, and I hope it will be in Illinois, too. I’ve been a member of the professional community of massage therapists and bodyworkers since 1975- more than 30 years. How did I fi nd my way to this profession? In the same way so many of us have- I had a massage, and it changed me- for the better. Then I had another. And another. You know the rest of the tale- In those 30-plus years, I have looked forward every day to the practice of my profession. In moments of refl ection, what wells up is awe and gratitude that I somehow managed to get myself on this path and consequently became a member of a community of people who have tremendous heart, who, in all their struggles to be accepted by the community of mainstream health professionals, have never wavered from their conviction that touch is the great healer. Our collegial connection is not about the modality we use; it’s about our willingness to be with that client who shows up in our practice- to care, to be patient, to be present, to touch competently, and to be in process ourselves. Historically, the massage and bodywork profession has defi ned the cutting edge of the healing arts. Being a proud part of that ongoing evolution is both a joy and a challenge. To that end, I hope you will have a satisfying year exploring the cornucopia of educational opportunities available to you within these pages or through other prestigious venues. With warm regard, Nancy Toner Weinberger, Publisher About the PERG The Professional Education & Resource Guide is an easy reference The PERG is mailed free of charge to licensed massage therapists and for continuing education opportunities for massage therapists and bodyworkers, so keep your address up to date with your state massage bodyworkers. board to ensure you receive each and every copy.
