Hello Every one,
I am enjoying this pleasant Sunday. Did my short walk to get some breath into the lungs. For the past couple of weeks, I've been experiencing a pinched nerve in my left shoulder. For those of who don't know what that feels like...............It's like a long sharp needle jammed into the softest part of the shoulder. Getting to sleep was a nightmare. In the mornings, my neck was so stiff. The only option is pain medication and wearing a big soft collar. Taking pain medication is the last thing for me. I don't believe in covering up or blocking the symptom(s). This tension and stress has been building up in that shoulder area for a while. The pinch nerve was my body telling me "I had enough". Pain medication and a soft collar would be a temporary relief. The truth is, it is up to me to relieve the cause or source of the pitch nerve.
I asked for help from friends who are holistic practitioners. My dear friend referred me to a massage therapist/natural healer. My benefit was a free hour session. The body work was uncomfortable at first due to the tension I held in my shoulders. Then I was instructed to worked with my breath as her fingers worked on tender spots. I was told to breathe into it. My body was completely relaxed after the session. I continued to follow the breathing exercise to release the tension in that area.
Trying to hold everything together is the cause of my problem. I'm placing so much weight on my shoulders. I'm consciously giving up " I must anticipate the outcome". This is an old way of thinking. It does not serve me anymore. Taking on trusting life is the challenge. It is hard to remember at times that we are here on this planet to live lives rich in life experiences not to live lives of desperation. Every day I am doing an act of fulfillment . As I work on inner transformation, my shoulder area is healing.
Thank you for your listening.
I've been working on a spouted buckwheat pancake. The dehydrating time was only four hours. A whipped nut mixture spread is on top. Can't make up my mind if I want banana or blueberry sauce to go over it. I chose the blueberry sauce. I'll add teaspoon of fresh orange juice and raw agave if needed. When you are preparing raw foods, it is fun to experiment and create dishes.
Enjoy !
