Your Challenge to Shine!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves,
Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,
talented, and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.
There’s nothing enlightening about shrinking
so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.
It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.

Password Pink 2012

Password Pink was again a huge success!   This is a great annual event in Maryville, and 97.1 De Ville does a great job sponsoring it!  Dawn did chair massage for almost 3 hours (she did take a break) and there were a hundred vendors - so much color and so many people!  A truly great day!  This is a photo from last year as I am in 'camera hell' and couldn't take any pix this year - sorry Dawn!

Maryville's 97.1 the 'Ville is sponsoring its annual Passport Pink Ladies Day Out again!   Over 40 vendors with food and drinks, free services and demos, door prizes and a Grand Prize $1000 Makeover!   Come see Dawn and me on Saturday!   Dawn will be doing free chair massage demos and I will be offing Jin Shin Jyutsu's Sinus Relief Quickie!   That's me with The 'Vill's Billie Sorenson last year!    www.971knim.com

Headaches? Stiff Neck?

The spheno-basilar joint lies at the top of the spinal column.   It joins the major bones of the head, the parietal, the temporal and occipitant.    It is easily put out of whack by both physical bumps and emotional upheaval.   It can be “locked down” which is often described as a feeling of being out of touch with one’s surroundings, being depressed, etc.   “Locked up” creates the opposite effect, creating “hyper” tendencies or even “manic” expressions.   I have seen the most amazing results from using this Body Talk technique in response to complaints of headaches, TMJ issues, swallowing difficulties, not to mention “foggy head” and a variety of perception imbalances.   One woman came to me with a sudden onset of swallowing, talking and “locked jaw” symptoms.   Another came with migraine headaches that she’d had for over a year, with no pathology in a battery of tests.    The first woman was under extreme stress at work and came to see me the second day of her symptoms, a very short session including the balancing of the SB joint relieved all symptoms.     The second woman with chronic migraine experienced dramatic results with her first session – which also included balancing the SB joint.    This is a simple, non-manipulative correction that can resolve a variety of “head” and “spinal” issues.    Call today for an appointment if you experience any of the described symptoms, including forgetfulness, fuzzy-headedness, even chronic neck stiffness!

My grandson Nolan - working hard!

2012 has come steaming down the track and I've had all I can do to keep out of its way!   For Christmas I had a little helper come to give the tracks a dose of angel dust - and that let us slow down and enjoy the holiday weekend!
