I Tried the Shoshin Technique to Handle My Stress—Here's What Happened. Top Story - January 2019.
Monday of last week was not a good one for me. It was 3:30 PM, and my boss had called me into the office again. My heart started pounding, my breath stilled. I was terrified that I was going to be let go. Recently, the office told the entire floor that they were going to be doing some restructuring. Like many other people, I knew what that euphemism often meant.

Reiki Healing
Usui Reiki began in the late 1800s, with a spiritual quest while fasting 21 days on Mt. Koriyama, and then before his death in 1930, he made16-18 Reiki masters, according to Diane Stein’s Essential Reiki: A Complete Guide to An Ancient Healing Art. Crossing Press, Berkeley, California, 1995. You see, Reiki has existed since Buddha worked on Buddhism. In other circles, Jesus may have survived his Crucifixion. He knew of Reiki, which is a Japanese word but also found in the Middle East by another name while Buddhism spread. Reiki is hands-on healing that has to do with symbols you draw on the palm of your hands.

By Your Fingernails!
Guys, guys guy! I have something for you to try out! Do a quick experiment for me? Go and grab a cheese grater from the kitchen and give the palms of your hands a good ol' rub for an hour. Then, after an hour take those hands and some table salt and give it all a good rub. Properly press your hands together. Imagine washing them and how you run your fingers together as they interlock... get all those little granules right in there!

Self-Care on a Budget
To no one’s surprise, life can really kick you in the rear... and scratch you in the eye and rip out your hair all before breakfast. And when you’re busting your tail taking care of a family, putting your best foot forward at work, and/or planning a large event or trip, the stress and exhaustion can leave you feeling empty and hopeless. Stress causes digestion disfunction, mood swings, headaches, and loss of focus; not to mention the aging and weight inconsistencies, which just stresses you out even more.

Dreaming = Exhausting
I am so tired. I don't know what it is. I sleep so much, but it feels like it is never enough. I must be getting between seven and nine hours a night at least, which is more than enough. Those around me see that I sleep a lot and think I am being lazy, but I'm really not. I can't help it. All I want to do is sleep. I honestly could sleep forever.
