August 2017: No More Practice Journal


Taking a break after setting up for August. Lovin' life at the beach.
He knew just what I wanted.

At the end of the rainbow!

Where the butterflies fly and the habit trackers track...

There's a bi-weekly vertical dutch door set up with lots of list space on the other side.  I have a number of items that happen every week and being a bullet journal, meant to be about productivity, I really don't want to write them every week. They fit great in the left margin.




These are the beginning of some collections I am working on for the year.   The @ is for my websites page views and blog post dates.  The yoga man is for tracking my teacher hours, but I have not figured out how to create something to color here and incorporate the information I want to keep.  Like me on facebook:  onawhimnicaragua.

Energy Healing: The Essentials of Self Care This one resonated with me. I could hardly put it down and that is unusual for me with a book in this genre. It all started for me on page 10 with a great composite view of different energy anatomies that had been explained in the preceding pages. For me, it really brought together the Chinese medicine, Thai massage, chakras and aura system in relation to each other. The healing stories through opening our connections to the energy fields of the universe were motivating and interesting to read. The first exercise I tried was the first one in the book "toe tapping". It's a pretty simple exercise so following the instructions was easy. I only kept it up for about a week but I believe I did start to feel benefits. I like to meditate and I am always looking for new ideas. This book provided. I still want to try the metta meditation and many of the other meditations that are throughout the book. I still have a numb...
