  • Stress Reduction

    Namaste It is important for us to appreciate that we process stress different because everyone is different.

  • High Blood Pressure

    Blood pressure is the force of the blood against the walls of the arteries as it passed through the blood vessel.

    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.

  • Primordial Attributes

    Namaste We’re in…the New Year. Doesn’t feel new; feels like my regular comfortable clothing with a few stitches missing in the seam or a partly loose hem. But I hope it is new for you, though I rather suspect it will not remain that way. It will toss up a few surprises…the old things coming…
