CraniOcean Media is leading the way in independent publishing with mainstream distribution. Independent or Inter-dependent? CraniOcean Media, or just “CraniOcean,” publishes the books of innovative craniosacral therapist James Nemec but would not exist unless for You. It arises out of requests to learn how to learn in the community of healing arts, by both patients and/or clients and practitioners. Growing out of the informational website, CraniOcean.com, its CONTENT a response to the celebration of freedom and variety and the unconditional liberation of the being, YOU.
We are pleased to announce that our first publication, TOUCH THE OCEAN: THE POWER OF OUR COLLECTIVE EMOTIONS,” by author, Nemec, has held its own with the majors, including Harpercollins, Hyperion, Simon and Schuster, and St. Martins Press. This should also be a clue to the publishing world that Craniosacral Therapy, and it’s allied modalities, Somatoemotional Release, Visceral Manipulation, Lymph Drainage Therapy, is a subject that is worthy of interest.
TOUCH THE OCEAN, and CraniOcean Media’s forthcoming books in this first phase, including JOURNEYS: STORIES OUR BODIES CAN TELL, are distributed by New Leaf Distributing. The mission? Anything is possible. CraniOcean Media has demonstrated this with its bold moves in Internet publication. It is here also to encourage others to be what they are, for to be as You are can be a considerable contribution in itself. Thank you for being YOU |

Fire Yogi — An Example of Blending
Although I myself wouldn’t do this, and certainly do not suggest anyone do this, might this be another example of blending?
This could be something that each of us are doing every day in our different ways — it’s all a matter of degree — no pun intended
For example, when we open up to a person and shake hands. Or hold a pet that we love. Or touch the ocean. We are always blending, even with the environment. We are not aware that we are. We are blending individually and collectively.
Again, no one need light a match to find out about this! There is no force required in blending. (And no fire!
For more on “blending,” google Touch the Ocean: The Power of Our Collective Emotions or visit the site, CraniOcean.
Thank you.
Seals Are Special too — Timing is All
Thank you for joining us here! From the latest story in the CraniOcean.Calm Newsletter –
How did the Seals play into the therapeutic Ocean sessions in Southern California? We may never know. In the session on Hermosa Beach, when the shorebreak was so rough for my client, we felt honored when a seal appeared a few feet from us (on urban Hermosa Beach of all places!) and I’d felt grateful that we had “stopped” and waited before going into the water. What’s interesting is the timing of the events. Timing is all. Now, in the moment of the blend, the seal had seemed to point us back to the beach and to safety. We both got the message. The seal wasn’t there when Lydia went down on her back on the sand, the waves washing over her like they had over the body of the seal. I didn’t know where the seal had gone off to and was grateful to have gotten the point. As Lydia’s boyfriend, a long distance solo-sailor from France, had said, “The animals know.”
Was the appearance of the seal on this Los Angeles beach a random event? Or was it there to help us and show the way? Am I reading too much into this?
Here is a video from the BBC that demonstrates that Seals can not only discern turbulence in the water, but that they are very special sea creatures.
Again, it’s not that the seal appeared on this very busy beach it’s the timing of the event.
Back to the notion of a seal as a “helper” seal — when doing therapy, in water or on land, stopping to ask “how” an event happens can be rather useless!
(Think about it for a while.)
If you are in sub zero temperatures and freezing, are you going ask “how” it got so cold? Or are you going to build a fire?
It’s wonderful what can happen when we take a moment to “touch the ocean,” and in return, feel the answering touch of the ocean in the blend.
Thank you.
Sitting with a Question, from TOUCH THE OCEAN
Some questions raised in Touch the Ocean –
What is it to sit with a question without having to have an immediate answer?
Another question the book poses is just as the weather can affect our moods (a bright day can make us cheerful, gloomy day sad) can we in turn influence the “moods of the weather?”
If you have been following the CraniOcean.Calm Newsletter, you know of a certain seal that crawled onto Hermosa Beach to point the way during a Craniocean-healing session — one event the book points to CAN happen when we learn to “touch the ocean.”
What is the connection between our health and healing and the health and healing of the planet? Do we need to be “healed?” anymore than the Planet? Could it be that the outer pollution will never stop until we address the inner pollution?
Could our connection with each other, and with the planet, be more intimate than we have previously imagined?
Are our bodies oceans in miniature?
And here is a proposition that a friend presented by gifting me a new book by a fine gentleman the other day –
“Since human life and human consciousness are intrinsically one with the life of the planet, as the old consciousness dissolves,there are bound to be synchronistic geographic and climatic natural upheavals in many parts of the planet, some of which we are already witnessing now.”

Journeys: Stories Our Bodies Can Tell, L.A. Bodhi Tree Event
The Bodhi Tree Bookstore event in Los Angeles for CraniOcean’s new book, “Journeys: Stories Our Bodies Can Tell,”was on February 24th, Tuesday, and a delight for all who attended. The Bodhi Tree has no more copies available, yet. Find out what happened by clicking here — This was a pre-publication event of “Journeys.”
The Body, Not Just the Mind, Has Stories to Tell
JOURNEYS: STORIES OUR BODIES CAN TELL takes us on a journey beyond traditional medicine. Our bodies tell stories, whether we are aware of it or not. Others can often tell us our stories before we ourselves know what they are. Even domestic animals. What we don’t know won’t hurt us, “ignorance is bliss,” but some of our body’s stories can unintentionally hurt others as much as heal. The author of “Touch the Ocean,” L.A. playwright, and Upledger craniosacral therapist, articulates prismatic case histories. The body, not just the mind, has stories to tell. At the end, he stands the book on its head, challenging us to find out for ourselves.
Both “Journeys” and “Touch the Ocean: The Power of Our Collective Emotions,” are now available in Los Angeles at the Bodhi Tree Bookstore.

Can one light touch change the world?
TOUCH THE OCEAN: THE POWER OF OUR COLLECTIVE EMOTIONS, by celebrated craniosacral therapist, James Nemec, narrates compelling stories of heart centered presence and ocean healing. He explores the history of craniosacral, mind altering connections with dolphins, and with our environment. Upledger Institute certified, Nemec combines science and intuition to heal individuals previously considered beyond help. The case studies presented explain the curious life-elixir Nemec brews between the ocean, sky, and the energies of our collective conscious. “Are our bodies oceans in miniature?” At the end, the author stands the book on its head, challenging us to find out for ourselves.
