this day

This woman is having a little trouble with holding her stress in her body. 

I will own it... my body aches

my forearms are taught with tension
my shoulders are joined to my neck with rubber bands made of razor blades
and there are bricks, dangling, 
dangling just between my shoulder blades, suspended from a strip of fabric tied around my forehead
providing me with the discomfort of a headache that hasn't gone away for a few weeks now. 

My belly is fully of muck

my diet is slimming
no more gluten.

I need to take good care of this vessel that I live in

indeed, I'm the one who sets the standards as to what goes in
and what comes out.

My words

my art
my breath
my intentions


Funny, I think this, I write this, then I read this from www.nbchiro.com.au:


Below is our simple five step guide to super-charging your health this week.
1. Drink only water this week. That means no coffee or soft drinks.
2. At least 30 mins of exercise everyday. This could be anything ranging from a walk, riding a bike or to more intense exercise such as a gym workout. Either way keep it fun, and mix it up.
3. Eat only non-processed and non packaged foods. In case your wondering that basically rules out 90% of the “food” in your shopping centre other than the fruit, vegetables and meats.
4. Go to bed early. Turn off TV, computer and smart phones. The bright lights and type of activity over stimulates our already hyperactive brains limiting your ability to relax and wind down.
5. Get up and move from your desk every 30 mins. Standing up and stretching will stop the progressive build up of stress and tightness in your body, in particular the neck and shoulders.

Follow these steps for the next 7 days, and I guarantee you will be amazed at the transformation.
It’s that simple. No pills, no fad diets, just common sense.
