Life is interesting.
Today I treated myself to a half day of Ayurveda, given by a very nice lady who treats in a Yurt. I had three treatments, a head and shoulder massage, full body massage then the one where the oil is poured over your forehead (the proper names escape me now) followed by a steam. It was so fabulous, and I zonked out a couple of times. Very deeply relaxing, and I thoroughly recommend it. I'll be going back for more. I've just washed the oil out of my hair and it's all soft and lovely, and my skin is feeling soft now that the oil has all sunk in.
Tomorrow I have a shamanic healing session. Yey! I'm looking forward to it, albeit with a slight amount of trepidation, given how emotional I felt after the last one. But, it's for the greater good. This lady also runs workshops and stuff so I'm very interested to meet her.
I've been volunteering at the local Oxfam for a few weeks now and I'm really enjoying it, just a shame that I can't do more hours there and get paid. It has made me realise that I don't want another office job (I knew that anyway, but I was thinking about temping for a bit), I'd quite like to work part-time in a shop, but it would have to be the right kind of shop - something cool where the crap customers are minimal. Wishful thinking really, but you never know. My other voluntary job at the Trinity Centre has gone a bit wobbly - I turned up there last Thursday to be met with blank looks, so I didn't stay. I was a little annoyed as I have to pay to park, and as I had an appointment a couple of hours later in town, there was no point in going home. Only a couple of quid but even so...
The Life Coaching is going well. Very well in fact. I'm absolutely loving it and I'm getting more confident and into my stride with it. The case studies I've done so far came back with a really good guide mark, so I'm very pleased with myself. I've decided to write my course thesis on Life Coaching as a holistic therapy. I will then see if I can get it write a magazine version and get it published. I'm still astounded by the effect it's had on me so far, after all the coaching I've had from fellow students. It's picked up where I left off with the counselling and taken me forward a bit more. Marvellous. I'm reading The Artists Way now, as part of my course reading in an effort to nurture my creative side.
So, it's all good. Now I'm off to zonk out in front of some crap TV.
