I've been looking into yoga and also Pilate, but I do hate anything that might cut down my weaving time. The Tai Chi school we used to go to moved out of town to about 12 minutes walk from my house, so that's another option, but this is a very Westernized school of Tai Chi and Ben and I could not get our heads around it. It kind of looked wrong; such fast movements.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350447919000146804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-7286410846606953362008-06-09T10:37:00.000+12:002008-06-09T10:37:00.000+12:00You know Reiki?

My sister had the most astonishing result one time about 15 years ago, and Mom was with her in the same room, but nobody can explain to her what happened. She suffered from stress-related stomach pains for a very long time, and that made her face break out all over for months. And one visit to the reiki and her stomach pain was gone after one appointment, but her dermatologist was less than capable so she has some scars left from the wrong, very strong medication from that period. My sister even thought of learning reiki at one point, before she got busy with her kids. She might take it up once of these days. She started Yoga about two years ago, and when she has time, she really enjoys it. This teachers makes everyone drink gallons of water before you start, and makes the room warm and humid, so they come out drenched, which has done great things to her complexion.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350447919000146804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-74300279956935641762008-06-07T12:16:00.000+12:002008-06-07T12:16:00.000+12:00Hi Meg, Just wanted you to know I'm sending Reiki/...Hi Meg, Just wanted you to know I'm sending Reiki/positive energy your way! It does what's really needed, even when we're confused and/or frustrated, etc. I can tell you, practicing Reiki has gotten me through some awful times! I've just started yoga, too, and already feel a difference after a week!Dr. Crystal Grimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07276657836507321930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-62297369999995738202008-05-22T15:31:00.000+12:002008-05-22T15:31:00.000+12:00Valerie, the colors of the Liquid Amber leaves wer...Valerie, the colors of the Liquid Amber leaves were treated in the processing. I increased the saturation of colors. Which in turn made them look closer to real life. <BR/><BR/>I'm looking at our tree (this one is someone else's between the bus stop and my house) and I see yellow, orange, lime green, green, light red, dark red, and pretty soon the dark red ones will start to turn purple and then brown and dry. I'll see if I can get some details. <BR/><BR/>This year, however, my cherry tree is looking more impressive than the liquid amber. I wonder if it's too late to catch that one, also. <BR/><BR/>Thank you, Mrs Moon. It's really been a lovely autumn.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350447919000146804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-6551483252610361432008-05-22T10:31:00.000+12:002008-05-22T10:31:00.000+12:00Hi Meg,Beautiful colours in the photo....xjHi Meg,<BR/><BR/>Beautiful colours in the photo....<BR/><BR/>x<BR/>jmrs moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10525038448433827977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-59451688649157470692008-05-22T10:25:00.000+12:002008-05-22T10:25:00.000+12:00Welcome back!

I have to do things a little at a time....marathon sessions of anything don't suit my personality. <BR/><BR/>The colors of the leaves in the photo intrigue me.

I had a sedentary life ... most of my life come to think of it, except waking, I know I'm paying the price now. it reached a point now where I don't like the gym at all, but if I don't go for a few days, I feel it all over. <BR/><BR/>So I'm on my way right now. And I'll tackle that heddle problem this afternoon.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350447919000146804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-31240166614106320342008-05-22T05:10:00.000+12:002008-05-22T05:10:00.000+12:00Glad to see you back!

I pretty much keep only one very short to-do list and that is the next three or four things I need to do regarding weaving. Is my grocery list a to-do list?! As for turning 50 and the body going you know where....... I've just turned 70 (that was a toughie!)but yoga, weight-lifting, cardio walking or biking keep me in pretty darn good shape. Indeed, I do this stuff faithfully, time-consuming as it is, because I know it is the only way I can keep weaving, dyeing, spinning, gardening........ Plus it does good things for my health.Peg in South Carolinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07886923838871937466noreply@blogger.com
