2023 Musings: January
So many things have happened in the past few years that I have only journaled via writing manually. This space has been silent for a long time. Today I felt the need to share everything going on with me. My many thoughts. Here goes!
I don’t know how many people will see this, perhaps I don’t even care. I just need to get these thoughts down and it hursts my hand to manually write all I am about to put down. I am typing this in my phone only because I should be getting to sleep soon. That is, if I can even fall asleep. Been having trouble lately. I did take 3mg of melatonin and I have a cat snuggled up with me, so there is hope that I will fall asleep soon.
Sleeping is one of many issues I have been dealing with. Ever since the pandemic with COVID-19 I haven’t danced in a class or with a group of people. I did practice at the beginning, but no longer. I did realize while I haven’t been tapping my knees have been s lot better. I miss both tap and ballroom. Ballroom has been put on hold because of expenditures increasing with vacations taken and swim lessons for my son. I can still miss it.
This year I will turn 50 years of age and my body seems to be giving up here and there. Because I have been working my thumbs are getting overused, though my other doc said it was the beginnings of arthritis. Either way, they hurt. I help them by taking a CBDa tincture. I know it helps me feel less pain overall. I also take a product helping me with weight loss from the same company. I love how the pills provide me with energy and allow me to focus more. Since my thumbs are wearing out and I am becoming more concerned about my future as a licensed massage therapist I have come to the conclusion that I need to use other parts of my body more for massage and work cupping into more of the massages that I give. This allows for lifting, not pushing down. I also have realized that I need to think about what I am going to be doing after I can’t do massage any more.
This year I am going to get my CTFO business built up as much as I can. If anyone is interested in the products we sell I will be happy to have a conversation with you about them. Just message me! The other thing I will be doing is concentrating on getting my craft business up and running online. The sooner the better in order to help a friend out. I am all about helping people.
Hubby and a few clients/therapists are encouraging me to teach what I know about Neural Reset Therapy. In order to do that I would have to get certified by the creators of NRT and become a teaching assistant. It intrigues me immensely. I just don’t know how to teach the instinct that I use. Perhaps I use more logic than instinct? Not sure.
I do well, body-wise, with chair massage, so I will also be looking into more vendor events. Helping people achieve a better quality of life by reducing pain gives me a good feeling. The events help me to reach more people. Selling my crafts is a bonus.
So much more to say. It will have wait until another day. I am now feeling sleepy. Goodnight.
