It's about loving and looking after yourself...

How I feel now? Depressed and stressed. I've got an employer, a school, who are trying to get rid of me. I do take time off for IBS. I've had it for years- it morphs- changes it's symptoms, over time.


What helps- this is the important bit. Not working full time, getting enough rest, eating regularly, walking (the dogs), playing and hearing music and being creative, having the time to hear and see the programs I like. Not having financial worries.


Having various holistic treatments (different people like different treatments) any skilled massage (Shiatsu), healing work (Reiki)= just try and get someone who's been at it a while-more than half of thed practitioners that I've used over the years have seemed to not be effective, maybe it's a matter of experience. And meditaion, and accupunture from someone who has the same mother tongue as you, a lot goes wrong in translation.
