  1. What are daobums up to?

    Watching acupuncture videos on youtube. Pressing KD1 for a good nigth's sleep
  2. Thought it would be useful to share my findings as they might be helpful to someone in the future. Have to wait 2 weeks for a dental apointment and I find myself with excruciating pain. Paracetamol and iboprufen not working anymore. Took some other Polish medication even stronger but guess what? Stopped working : ) Came to my mind two things said and written by Moshe Feldenkrais. I remembered him saying once in a video where he was treating a woman with chronic migraines that he had " many ways to trick her brain". With this in mind I tried to saturate my brain with "information" focusing in specific areas of both soles of my feet not giving any chance for the brain to give any attention to the pain. It worked. The pain was gone for more than 12 hours. Other thing that I have tried and again with Feldenkrais' ideas in mind was the following, according to him sensitivity is directly proportional to muscular relaxation. You can't feel a feather on the palm of your hand if you have been carrying heavy weights. So, if you try to feel soft or subtle things on the surface of your skin the surrounding musculature will relax. Again, it works. A soft hand barely touching my head and face made the musculature relax and stopped excruciating pain. Feeling very thankful to know what I know know and if it may help anyone, great : )

    Teenagers have the right to watch good interviews of kung fu masters with superpowers, you know?
  4. Stranger things

    Interesting that behaviour of rolling on top of the dead body of the snake or where the kill took place? The cat does it in the following day as well. My dog does this everytime she finds the body of a dead animal (crow, frog).
  5. In my case it's a dog. Here goes, 1. Long daily walks in nature are mandatory. 2. Stretch at least 7 times a day. 3. Yawn at least once every hour. 4. Fast regularly. 5. Eat only when you are hungry. 6. Roll a little on your back every morning. 7. No resentments. 8. No need to think so much of tomorrow. Live in trust. 9...in progress
  6. That thought comes to my mind so often... Thanks for your post. Loved it 🙏
