Our breath, like our heartbeat, is the most reliable rhythm in our lives. When we become attuned to this constant rhythm, our breath can gradually teach us to come back to the original silence of the mind. -Donna Farhi

  • I will go anywhere as long as it’s forward

    I came home yesterday to a spectacular house! Clean, organized, ALL my laundry was done and Gio with a smile on his face. I was so astonished and happy.THEN…. he did my meditation with me 🙂 I am doing my 40 day meditation and I chose the Kirtan Kriya. I…

  • Feeling defeated

    Ok TSW. You win. I get it. Every time you let things heal a little bit, you must come back with a flare to remind me who’s really in charge.At the end of the day, it’s pretty simple; I have to endure this. Every moment of it, every flare, every…

  • Finally four months

    Even though I don’t notice a significant improvement today I am so happy I made it this far. It’s crazy it’s been four months of my life, it feels like it just started but at the same time it feels as if I have been battling this forever.  I have…

  • Stagnant

    Just took a DDS bath and it was extremely uncomfortable. I’m not sure if it was because the water was too hot but baths aren’t a refuge like they used to be.  Gio has a show tonight and my parents are driving all the way from Smithville and they are…

  • Dreary day

    It’s a rainy dark cold day today and work is extra boring. On the bright side, I brought lunch and a smoothie so I don’t have to leave for lunch. Working in front of a computer is a blessing and a curse sometimes. I spend too much time on Pinterest…

  • Not even four months yet?!

    I miss my life. I miss who I used to be. I miss the old problems I had with my skin; occasional break out, tan lines. But this. This has turned into my absolute worst nightmare. It hasn’t really improved in about a month and my attitude lately has gotten…

  • With each flare

    With each flare I get a little bit more humble. Right when I started to having more confidence about going out into public, my neck skin stiffened up and cracked and oozed. I would say the pain is 50% less though which is great; doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt but…

  • Owning my story

    Lots of changes in my life lately. My trip to Santa Fe wasn’t the best so far, but probably the most challenging actually. It started out with crying in Gio’s arms at the airport because I didn’t want to go, I felt sick and my skin was hurting. I wanted to…

  • dirty fingernails

    She glares down at her dirty fingernails; underneath them is dead bloody skin stuffed in. Trying to stay productive has just taken a turn for the worse. Trying to remember when it wasn’t this hard to just send an email starts to push her towards letting it out. The tears.…

  • New beginnings

    How is it even possible I was driving my car around with a broken back axle? Literally right up until I move do I find out I need a new car. It’s very exciting to have so many new surroundings lately, first with Santa Fe, then the new house and…
