Following Our Flow The phone rings and shakes me out of my state. I let it ring out as my eyes come back into focus, noting with surprise that it is dark outside. As the silence falls again, I step back and look at the painting. All of a sudden, all the various elements of the canvas fuse back into one, as if I have suddenly put on my glasses and can see it as a completed piece for the first time.
By: Coby Hadas "...we choose wisely our battles, we choose wisely our audience, and we choose wisely our timing." I’m boarding a flight to go home for the holidays, Guatemala to New York with a long layover in Miami. I’m always the last to board, I want to minimize my time on the radiation filled cylinder which is going to miraculously hurtle me through the air, landing lightly and gracefully on terrafirma, a continent away (I hope). I pass row after packed row overwhelmed with whiffs of equal parts perfume and BO. 24, 25, 26, 27… I reach my row and glance to the left, an empty seat sandwiched between a large gentleman on the aisle (arg) and, a friend at the window. What a small world!

By: Randi Schiffman "Remember, there is always a mental or emotional root cause that lies beneath the physical symptoms." I have had a lot of epiphanies as of late with the help of some healers and body workers who have shed some light on the matter. I usually go into the story of playing the victim since it happens to me not because of me. The “it” refers to me waking up from a night's sleep and being debilitated by neck pain that lasts for nearly a month. Since I'm not an advocate of pharmaceuticals, I feel the pain deeply and try to heal through acupuncture, massage, oils and other modalities but the truth is, nothing seems to work other than time slowly chipping away at the extreme constriction and tightness. I could take an Advil or a painkiller to help to relieve pain and inflammation immediately but that's just putting a bandage over the real issue, isn’t it? I thought buying a memory foam neck pillow would be the ultimate cure, but it happened again and it turns out my cure-all is just like Advil. So, what now? |
