Very excited for this. How long will the zoom call be? Trying to do a brunch after. : )

Karla – Thank you so much for this reflection -I am reading it at just the right time, and that makes me smile. I have a new patient coming in in 30 minutes who had an incredibly traumatic car accident and almost died. I’m glad that I read your post, about not overtreating… I will be leaning back into the Tao and feeling if AE is the right fit.

Oooh Vicki! So very juicy. It’s amazing how we hide ourselves to fit in, and then don’t fit ourselves. It’s scary to stand in your truth – especially when you know your world is about to change, that people may abandon you. But as you said, “I will not abandon myself.” Here’s to your courage!

Thank you for seeing me, Kari. I do start to feel alone when I feel like this, so thank you for that as well. And yummmm I am feeling quite warmed by that campfire. I see you too. : )

Sarah! Thank you so much for your beautiful reflection and share. I can so relate to this moving between the feeling of being keyed in and then feeling lost and overwhelmed. I knew I wasn’t alone, but it makes me feel supported to actually hear it, and makes me happy to be able to help support you in your navigation of this crazy human experience.
And yes, I did know about Mimosa as a Chinese herb, so I figured the essence would have some of those qualities, but I am excited to feel what else it brings out in me. Thank you for sharing this as well.

Thanks B! It’s a second date and I’m excited for it. : )

Kari – I am so excited to hear about you and your practice’s transformation. I too have found that there are ebbs and flows, bumps and smooth times, and sometimes it’s easy for me to trust, and sometimes it is harder. I look forward to hear more about how you are blossoming in the Fire. <3

OMG hahaha why do I always forget the “Have you tried turning it off and
on” trick???? Thank you for the speedy reply. Worked like a charm.😂 -
To the both-and instead of the either-or! Cheers!

Yes Joanne! This is something I love so much about the medicine – my concept of it is always expanding. Like you, I can reread Lorie’s books with very different understandings each time. And cheers to you for inviting people back into the treatment room, and knowing that the Tao has your back. : )

Same here, Joanne. It’s been a process of “unlearning,” of learning to get out of my head and into my heart and soul and into that space of the medicine. It was the spirit of the medicine that drew me to acupuncture school. It was a surprise when school was devoid of spirit. I am so grateful to have been led to Five Spirits, and that you, Lorie, were coming to Asheville shortly after I got the book.
And wow – speaking of books – the Kingsley one sounds awesome. I have a hard time understanding how people see the world in such binary “opposites” – it just doesn’t make any sense to me. Though of course, I still find myself defaulting to it sometimes. I especially notice this binary division in the media – “us” vs “them.” Politics. Ah, the tools to keep us humans divided and squabbling over bullshit.
Looking forward to cultivating an even deeper understanding of AE tomorrow. It was the first treatment you ever did on me, Lorie, and it had a profound effect.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing. I hope that by having us witness this in a safe container, that a little more transformation is happening.
Also, I so relate to the numbing out via substances. That was my teens and 20’s, and I still see it when I numb out on social media.
Much love, witchy Virgo sister.

That quote!!!!! Judy – I so relate to the analytical mind and its tendency to kind of bully the other parts of our knowing. I am so excited about your book and to see what sprouts for you this year.

Thank you, alchemical rock star sister. Ugh, the time thing is REAL!!! And now I am freaking out bc I took on another commitment – training for my first powerlifting meet in June! I WANT TO DO IT ALL AND STILL HAVE DOWNTIME!!!!
-
Thank you, Lorie. Crying a little as I read this – knowing that I am ready, but that I will doubt myself, and that I have such an amazing support system here. Worried that it will be another thing I talk about and don’t actualize. Yes to working on something tangible in the next office hours.
