Wednesday Brain Dump. I love Wednesdays.

Wednesday is my favorite day of the week. I have always liked it. (I do not call it Hump Day.) I think I like it because it's right in the middle of the week, all cozy-like.

On Monday I feel overwhelmed by the week ahead, I make TO-DO lists and clean my house like a madwoman, flitting from one task to the next without finishing the first, until I've circled back and eventually finish what I started. I've seen a lot recently about women with ADD, and I have a lot of the markers, but I refuse to social-media-self-diagnose. Let me just say, I do not complete tasks in a linear fashion, but I'm OK with it. It makes for interesting Mondays.

Tuesdays, I take it a little easy on myself and all the TO-DO list pressure. I run errands and usually get groceries and meal-plan for the week. I always AIM to study, but most of the time, if I leave the house for any reason, that is THE ONLY big task I accomplish that day. It's like my brain says, "One task only please; I can only do so much, lady." I usually read for a good bit or draw, but I'm usually reading for pleasure as opposed to attempting to absorb important information. Why can't I study on Tuesdays? I don't know.

On Wednesday, I feel calm. I am able to create easily. I draw, paint, I am writing this on a Wednesday. I feel like Wednesday is my pit stop for the week. I can do anything I want. I can't say why, but I don't feel 'productivity guilt' midweek. I am working on releasing guilt on all fronts; it's a work in progress like most things are. 

Thursdays, are OK. 

Fridays are the wrap-up. I clean again, but more calmly. I make art, and sometimes read AND study on the same day. I could do this on Tuesdays. Why don't I do this on Tuesdays?

The weekends are always different, depending on whether or not I am out of town for work, or we have our two youngest for a visit. I won't continue to bore you with this.

The whole point was WEDNESDAY. The magic of the midweek day. The calm of the no-pressure day. The letter 'W'! What a great letter!

So far today, I have meditated, practiced yoga, journaled, smoke-cleansed the house, fed the animals, and cleaned the mudroom. I am writing this, and then I will clean out my closet and dresser of every piece of clothing I haven't worn in the last six months. Then I'm going to paint. 

What I'm currently working on.

And I have my appetite back so I want to cook something really good for dinner. And tonight, I have my weekly class for Master Level Reiki.

Damn, am I boring? It's OK if I am, really. I have exciting things happen, but this post isn't about exciting news and happenings, it's about the everyday things. Simple things, human things.  But when exciting things happen, I will write about those, too.

I'm off to clean my closet!

Bye.

Speaking to what I mentioned in my last post  , I thought it was a good time to share what, exactly, my healing work looks like. I offer a few different sessions, all remote at this time.  Reiki ($44) - Energy healing session to bring balance to your chakra and energy systems. Work on energetic blockages, pain, stress level, and helps with grounding. This session is remote, and not over Zoom. After the session ends, I email session notes, and am available to answer any and all questions about your session. Clarity Session ($77) -  This is where we work through specific aspects of your healing together, and you can gain insight into next steps in your healing journey. We can discuss specific challenges you may be facing, and healthy ways to address them. I can walk you through journaling practices, guide you in meditation, grounding practices, etc. This is great for beginning your healing work and finding direction in that. Private yoga session ($99) - This is a personally...

Heal a little or a lot.

 If a bone is broken, it can cause bruising of the skin at the fracture sight, swelling, and of course pain at the point of the break itself. You can elevate the limb, ice the swollen area, and take an analgesic to reduce the pain a bit. All of those things are helpful, sure. But if the bone itself is not set, and a cast applied, the bone will heal improperly, causing pain and problems that could carry on for the rest of your life.  In setting the bone, it’s brought back into alignment and in casting, the conditions are set for the bone to heal itself. You know the cast is not healing the bone, right? The bone is healing itself inside the cast. In the same way, as an intuitive healer, I do not actually heal anyone. I can bring balance to unbalanced systems, for some comfort and relief. I can share practical tools that you can use to work through your healing. Like the cast on a broken bone, I can help make an environment conducive to healing, but much like the bone itself, how...
