  • A good kind of tired

    I spent a lot of time with my nephew today. By the time dinner started, I was ready for bed. Alas, a coiling session and a blog later, I’ll be sleeping soundly. We went for two walks together this afternoon… Continue reading

    Last night I slept like a baby. Or actually, I’ve learned that babies wake up a lot during the night. So actually, I slept better than a baby. I slept like I was drugged. I slept deeply through the night.… Continue reading

  • Shen Men

    Last night before I went to bed, I tried to put mustard seeds (attached to a sticky backing like a tiny band-aid) on my Shen Men points. I did it because I’m trying to prevent my vagus nerve from getting… Continue reading
