Statement of intent of the International Shiatsu Day
This manifesto is an invitation to take part as a protagonist in a collective event that aims to have the greatest possible resonance: a symbolic day to unite and say Shiatsu 'in all the languages of the world'. The initiative started from a large number of subjects who proposed to create an event without economic or political interests, which involves all Shiatsu operators and overcomes barriers, distances and differences. A moment in which the different souls of the practice come together to act no longer as individuals, but as elements of a great heart, the heart of Shiatsu.
This is how we imagine this day. Beyond styles. Beyond currents, fashions, acronyms. A wave of vital movement that involves all those (bodies, associations, schools, groups, private individuals) who have encountered Shiatsu, love it, practice it, teach it, receive it.
It is no coincidence that the proposal has found maximum impetus in the particular moment that the whole world is experiencing due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Together we can give a signal of trust to an afflicted and fearful society. It will only be thanks to everyone's commitment that this occasion of the International Day will have global resonance. We can all perceive how necessary it is to constantly work to ensure that people and society can live in balance and harmony and we practitioners firmly believe that Shiatsu helps in this. Everyone, as a unique actor in their role and in the context in which they live, can do their part to convey the initiative in their community, group, workplace.
We cannot do all this as individuals. an old Japanese proverb says that "a fly, if attached to the tail of a horse, can travel tens of miles". Each of us can do the same. We have a magnificent horse that is Shiatsu, let's start racing.
