Forthcoming

The Book of
Quiet Knowing

A wise woman's field guide

Kristina Ming · M.M.S.

After thirty years of one-on-one work, Kristina is gathering what she has learned into a single quiet volume — part memoir, part field guide, part permission slip to trust the things you already half-know.

A slow book. Worth the wait.

“I have been collecting these notes my whole life. On napkins. In the margins of other people's books. On the backs of receipts after a reading. They are not secrets — they are very old, very gentle ways of paying attention. I want to hand them to you.”

— Kristina

What's inside

Six rooms in a single quiet house.

Read it cover to cover, or open to whichever page is asking for you today. The book is built to be lived with.

I

On listening

How to hear the still, small voice underneath the noise — and why it has been waiting for you all along.

II

The wisdom traditions

Tarot, palmistry, numerology, handwriting, dreams, tea leaves, Feng Shui — taught in plain language, with stories from the table.

III

The body remembers

What palms, posture, and breath have to say about the life you have actually been living.

IV

Working with the unseen

Energy, intuition, and the soft mechanics of paying attention — without losing your feet on the ground.

V

Small daily rituals

Practices you can actually keep. Tea. A window. A notebook. The kind of altar that fits in a single drawer.

VI

You matter

A reminder, on every page, that the work of being yourself — slowly, kindly — is the most useful thing you can do.

You don’t need to be saved. You need to be seen.

The future is not a fixed thing. It is a leaning, and you can lean back.

The wisdom traditions are not magic. They are very old listening tools.

How it's being made

A slow book, written slowly.

Kristina is writing the way she reads — by hand, with tea, in the early hours when the house is still. There is no rush, because the book is not really new. It is the same gentle instruction she has been giving across the table all along; only this time, it is for everyone at once.

  • NowDrafting the wisdom traditions in plain language.
  • NextStories from the table — clients gently anonymized, moments told plainly.
  • ThenDaily rituals you can actually keep, illustrated.
  • LastA long, slow edit, with the people the book is for.

Be the first to hold it.

Kristina sends a short, slow letter — six or eight times a year. When the book is ready, the people on that letter will be the first to know.
