I have had some serious personal stressors in my life since March and like most women I chose NOT to deal with ANY of them...rather I dove into work, dove into my social life, dove into junk food, dove into ANYTHING that wasn;t healthy, wasn't soulful, wasn't therapeutic, was in EVERY way not good for me...

Well, it has taken a toll in MANY ways...I have had to notify my clients that I am taking the entire month of Aug off...I have gotten myself very sick...I am also dealing with a wicked muscle, nerve or possible vertebrae problem (seeing 2 chiro's, 1 doc, PT and have an MRI scheduled for this Fri)

PLEASE remember that we MUST nurture ourselves!!!!!!! People come to us for the very things that we might be going through ourselves...we have to take care of ourselves...we have to address relationship issues, work issues, health issues, fears, anxieties, children, economic, etc...the stress we warn our clients about is REAL and can hurt,damage and derail us...

Vent here, reach out here and perhaps there are local practitioners to see and receive nurturing...

I have BIg plans for when I am well again...yoga, aquatic exercising, walking, perhaps even using an exercise ball rather than a chair in my treatment room...

We are valued by our clients and families...we need to value ourselves MORE :)

Namaste and rock-n-roll!!!
