Progress of the Book
The book is, at last, being edited! Real book progress is being made. I hope to get it to the publisher soon. I plan to go over it one last time about mid July.
Thanks to everyone for your patience.
Please share this exciting news (for me, anyway) with your favorite media network.

Time-Out for Sharing then Moving on to the Chakras.
For the past few weeks, I’ve been sharing with you. I’ve offered information in each post for you, in turn, to share with your client partners. I’m following the advice of my teacher and mentor Marge D’Urso who emphasized the many things we can all do in conjunction with reflexology to encourage homeostasis.
Not all of this information applies to all of your client partners.
Some people come to our tables in order to feel better. Others want us to help them take greater charge of their own health. Yet others simply want to hop on the table, receive their reflexology session, and go away blissed out. And, there’s nothing wrong with that.
One special group wants to add other things to their lives which will help them
feel better
look better
avoid chronic disease
live longer
enjoy better health.
By sharing this information slowly, in small increments, you can, along with your reflexology sessions, give your client partners an opportunity to completely change their lives for the better in a non threatening way.
These gradual changes when mixed with reflexology offer dramatic improvements over time. The idea is to be sharing opportunities for good health without complicating lifestyles any more than they already are. You’ll be leading your client partners to a a more healthy lifestyle. They can completely change their lives 1 step at a time.
Slowly
Easily
Comfortably
Not all client partners will adopt every suggestion offered. Some won’t choose any suggestions. Some will try everything suggested for a time. Then, they’ll drop the health step after a few weeks. There’s something here for everyone. We are all different. Our attitudes, ages, and lifestyles are all different.
What’s important is that you are gently, without pushing, sharing suggestions for a healthier lifestyle.
When your client partners are ready, they’ll have this knowledge to use in the way which works best for them.
I’m taking a break with this series of posts to offer you, the reflexologist, some more hands-on posts. Then, I’ll return to these wellness posts for awhile longer…until I feel you have something to offer most client partners over a period of a year or more. You want to be sharing something which a person may accept and live with for awhile before taking on another health giving change. It’s important to let an adopted change settle in so they become lifetime habits.
Beginning next week, I’ll offer posts about Chakras and the feet. We have reflex points for Chakras in our feet. I hope you find these articles interesting. I hope you can use this information in your work!

Your Allergies and Reflexology for the Spirit, Continued
If your client partner’s dog has a long coat, she/he can consider having it trimmed short. This being said, some breeds should not be trimmed down: shelties, collies, Labrador retrievers, etc. Other breeds can be very easily kept trimmed short. If she/he take the dog to a groomer, ask your client partner to make sure the groomer knows about the allergies. a good groomer will have appropriate shampoos on hand and will know special brushing and hair drying techniques to remove as much hair and dander as possible to keep shedding to a minimum at home.
Some breeds of dogs don’t cause allergic reactions: poodles, shih tzus, etc. These breeds have hair, not coats.
Your client partner should work to keep his/her sinus cavities clean. Frequent washing of curtains, drapes, throw rugs, stuffed animals, human and pet bedding, etc. will help remove allergy triggers in the home. Maybe some of these things can just be gotten rid of. The question to be asked is: “Do I really need these dusty curtains, stuffed animals, etc.?”
Periodically, dust should be removed on everything in the home with a damp cloth. the idea is not to stir up the dust but get it in the damp cloth. When everything has been thoroughly dusted, the used damp cloth should be put in a plastic bag, sealed, and discarded.
All carpets and upholstered furniture should be vacuumed frequently. If central heat or an air purifier is used, the filter should be kept clean.
Eliminating roaches and/or mice is mandatory. They create problems for allergy sufferers. However, be careful of the products used to eliminate these pests. They can offer problems as well.
The subject of Allergies will continue in the next post.
Thanks for reading this blog.
Peace and food for all.
