So where the mind goes so goes the body and a few weeks ago I bent to zip my zipper or tie my shoe or something else innocuous \u2013 there was a loud pop in my neck and my range of motion stopped at about twenty-five degrees each way. Ok fine universe, I\u2019ll do some stretching, etc and keep on going. Well let me tell you the universe did not abide, so last week after a regular teeth cleaning (nothing unusual) my jaw slipped out of gear just like the clutch going out in your car but this came with gnawing pain with every chew and my bite out of alignment\u2026.. OK, OK universe I get it \u2013 STOP \u2013 I added \u201ctake care of self\u201d to my to-do list. There was a masseuse right here at the Ranch for the week \u2013 nothing was stopping me. So today (just hours ago in fact) I got an amazing massage!<\/p>\n<p>I scheduled a 90-minute massage instead of just 60 minutes (a splurge I have never allowed myself), I told my masseuse of my woes and she got to work, she dug and pressed and smoothed every inch of me with her hot angel hands. While I was on the table an image of a strong, fierce, determined angel wringing out laundry along the Ganges came to mind. The masseuse was the angel, of course, and I the laundry, the pouring rain outside played the part of the mighty holy Ganges River. After almost 2 hours she left me \u2013 set out to dry in the tree branches along the riverbank. Neck is moving to 35 degrees each way now (not perfect \u2013 but better), jaw thinking about getting back to work (maybe a few more days). Thank you universe for reminding me to take care of myself \u2013 but next time can you just send me a text?<\/p>\n<p>So here is your reminder before it\u2019s too late- <strong>make time for yourself<\/strong> in the midst of your all your busy!<\/p>\n<p>PS \u2013 Thanks Angel Anya for your strong hands and open heart!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve been a bit wrung out these days, my to-do list just won\u2019t get shorter, my sleep is off, the short days and early dark \u2013 you know what I mean \u2013 I\u2019m out of whack, I\u2019m in disequilibrium.
