  • Intimate Relationship Abuse

    Namaste How can Massage Therapy be of any help to women who suffer from abuse?  After a few minutes of persuasive conversation from a friend, I accepted an invitation to participate in a group chat about domestic abuse.  She understood that my contribution might have no straight line to the issue at hand, but she…

  • Apex

    Namaste I rolled out of bed about 6am according to the clock in my room.  The one outside was mining its own business.  Neil Diamond was on my mind and I proceeded to entrap him in my stereo repeatedly taking me on a beautiful journey with the selection Be.  He did not protest, not that…

  • The Big Picture

    Namaste I grew up hearing that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.  I relegated that to some vague concept of Chemistry because it was too scary to apply it to everyday life.  It works perfectly in that giving would automatically activate receiving, but when I think of doing good and getting bad as…

  • Coming from work…

    Namaste Coming from work… The driver advised me to be careful when crossing the road. She said she is always fearful for pedestrians in Trinidad. If there is an accident, there is great possibility of a fatality. She said she has travelled wide and far internationally and still feels that fear when she is home.…

  • Brazilian Waxing

    Namaste I got a text message from a Therapist stating that she has gotten a new client who has had a stroke and is suffering from severe pain whenever movement is required. She wanted to know if I had any suggestions to share. I started responding: You should brush him… Then I stopped, remembering that…

  • Happy…Ending

    Namaste Sat down to write. Heard my gate. Heard footsteps. I waited. A voice called. I went to the door to see my neighbour with knitted brows staring at my ceiling accessories. He came to put me on alert that thieves broke into one of the apartments and left with a new flat screen TV.…

  • Pain Reduction or Induction?

    Namaste Last week COSTATT had their health fair at NAPA and I was invited to hang out with Adepeju at the OMO and BestStart booth.  When I arrived lunch was served so I participated.  One of the persons sitting at my table (or was I sitting at hers?) was from St. Ann’s Hospital and I…

  • Tobago Lime

    Namaste First things first.  Clarification.  I was asked if my last blog was directly referring to a certain person.  No.  As I would have said some time before, whatever I write is my internal dialogue; reflections and projections that we are processing; that we being us – me, myself, and I.  It is never directed…

  • Prostate Pillow-Talk

    Namaste I recently got an overseas call from one of my clients.  He was about to make a trip to Trinidad and was checking on my availability for that day.  He was to have arrived shortly after 1pm, so we arranged for a 3pm session.  He later sent a text to inform me that there…

  • Mandate of a Massage Therapist

    Namaste In one of my recent conversations with my mother, she reminded me that she is always praying for me. No conversation is ever ended without blessings being uttered. Same with my father. So here was my Mom, praying that God surround me with His Cherubims. I listened, and agreed. I appreciate all the support…
