May 2016 update

I haven’t written in a while.  So here goes nothing  🙂

I am primarily doing the following: working, resting, doing a little Dharma practice each day and attempting to take a nap most days.  Not the most glamorous of schedules to be certain, but it is just what I need.

I am presently taking several Tibetan medicine herbs / precious pills and I am taking Vit B spray (for neuralgia) and homeopathic remedies for Lyme’s Disease.  So my body is adjusting and working through detoxing of that harmful bacteria and it is more tired.  Plus my mind is adjusting – in the past I always assumed I would be healthy and I would play computer games occasionally, or watch a late night move and lose sleep, or hang out with friends and stay up late one night / week…  So my mind is adjusting to a more regulated, more self-care filled regimen.  It is good for me.

I am also assisting with a Vagus I class with Janet Evergreen.  So I love that work – I fill in and give / receive bodywork if they have an odd number, otherwise I walked around and answer questions the students have and support the teacher.  This is very juicy and supportive for me.

I am scheduled to take Pharmacology this summer and that starts in 2 weeks – way too soon.  If I had been in classes this past semester, that would have meant that my “summer break” was 2 weeks long…  Ack!  By taking Pharm this summer, I will be able to have an easier spring semester when I dive back into clinical rotations and hospital work.

So I am keeping it pretty simple.  Practicing more self-care.  Resting down when I can.

Thanks for reading!
