Post-holiday blues = unmet expectations, disappointments, a return of loneliness, guilt about overindulgence, excess fatigue and stress. I’m in a profession where a lot of ppl every week tell me what they are going thru, so I notice patterns. I get it too, it will hit me although not hard since I am my own boss and I dictate my schedule. I can take off work and relax in my garden or rearrange furniture or de-clutter. When I’ve got the blues, what helps me out of it is staying in motion, rearranging things to stir up the chi in the house, de-cluttering anywhere that needs it. I remind myself the blues come to pass, they don’t come to stay and that I will be on the other side of it soon. In the meantime, there’s always something I can rearrange, something I can de-clutter that gives my mind a new focus and leads me into a better feeling place. Can you de-clutter one drawer today?

I admit I really dig keeping a secret. Having worked as a psychic and ghost writer for the last 30 years, I am used to working behind the scenes. I am used to being un-acknowledged in public. I don’t mind. I know who I am.  Secrecy teaches me not only about myself but about the unseen assistance I am able to give someone who can never repay me, for actions no one will ever know about.  I admit I really dig keeping a secret.

I dreamt I watched Trump sail off into the sunset. I’ve never been a boat person. Living in Florida my whole life I’ve been on boats since I was a kid and I know how to sail. But boating is not for me and the most I dream about boats is never. Anyway, there was a gathering at a dock seeing off a large white yacht. The sun was getting ready to set so there was a line of blood red ocean from the sun to the boat. The dock was a lot higher than the boat, as if the tide had gone down and so those getting on the boat had to crawl about 6 feet down a ladder then drop the final few feet to the deck of the boat. Thirteen stepped down then Trump stood at the bow facing the sun and the ship sailed into the sunset. I remember the red line of ocean lapping the bow kind of stuck to the bow and when the bow raised up on a wave, the red slowly dropped down into the sea until the next wave. It was more a honey texture than water, so it sunk slowly.

So much of my job is listening to people talk about what is going on in their lives and I know many who are alone on the holidays. Often it’s by choice but often it is because they do not make time to sustain friendships throughout the year. When the holidays come they automatically think they are not invited to things that people would love to have them attend if they only knew they were interested. Let them know you are interested.

This is not the prescription lithium you’ve always heard about

Many of our emotional problems — anxiety, pessimism — stem from a deficiency of amino acids and minerals in the body. We don’t feel good and we just want to be left alone.  Prescription lithium is controversial but the lithium OROTATE I write about here is not the lithium CABONATE that is prescription only. Lithium orotate is a non-Rx, over the counter, natural mood enchancing salt supplement. It’s an essential mineral the brain uses to keep functioning at its peak. It is used successfully for mood swings due to hormonal and internal chemical imbalances, including bipolar disorder, relief from feeling angst, anxious, short tempered, waiting for catastrophe. Go to the site and read the users’ reviews of their personal experience. I had similar good experience. Don’t take anything in combination with any medication or supplement you are currently taking without researching the combination first. Research it for yourself.  A friend had success getting off bipolar prescription meds using Lithium orotate. I bought a bottle 7 weeks ago and have been taking one 120 mg tablet each morning. I gave myself a checklist (sleep pattern, energy level, happiness and motivated levels, racing thoughts, working to burnout) to see if I noticed improvement. I did. I now realize stress, worry and anxiety can come from a deficiency of amino acids and minerals in the body. Lithium orotate balances that out with no side effects. Just 1-2 a day is all you need.

For the first time in 4 years, I woke up feeling completely safe in my own space. I walked right outside and wandered around the property in the dark, and didn’t once give thought to who might be out there, waiting unseen. I could sit in my garden, eyes closed listening to the bamboo and not wonder if each snap of a twig was a footstep. It was not a lurking fear, just a passing thought but I had it almost every time I went outside. Four years later when I thought it was over, he came to my door unannounced. He knows he is not welcome. He has no boundaries. I’ve seen him walking repeatedly in the area, acting impaired. He knows the secret hiding places in my woods, where to watch from. The fear renewed after his visit. Two days ago I woke up wanting coffee and a cigarette. I told G that’s a signal that my former friend had something going on. The next day I looked online and saw he was in custody. I felt a wave of relief and felt weight drop off my shoulders that I didn’t even know I held.  Continue reading →

A former friend was arrested on 11-11-16 for battery in the Dollar store –>  Palm Bay Man Arrested For Grabbing Woman’s Crotch. Today on December 22, 2016 he was picked up for violation of his pre-trial release order and is being held with $5,000 bond.  Even given multiple chances, some people can’t help self sabotaging. Maybe now he’ll get the help he needs.

12-24-16 UPDATE: He’s out on bond again!

9-20-18 UPDATE: he’s in custody again.

A bar of soap under the sheet is a natural remedy for not only night time leg cramps and restless leg syndrome, but also neck and back pain. Many use Ivory soap. Place the unwrapped bar under the fitted sheet to keep it from moving around. Most leg aches can be associated with dehydration and depletion of potassium. Gator-ade has sodium chloride, which replenishes lost potassium as well as rehydrates. Most bar soaps also contain sodium chloride. During sleep, it is absorbed thru the skin from the soap. A Florida man patented a cushion with compartments sewn into it to hold soaps. If you have leg aches, it would be easy enough to make a personal lap blanket using the info –> http://www.patentsencyclopedia.com/app/20120037164#b. When my legs cramp, I take a magnesium pill with a bottle of water and rub my leg with magnesium oil or magnesium lotion. If the magnesium oil makes you itch, switch to the lotion.

Abraham Hicks always gives me good self talk. They remind me of what I know so I can bring that to mind during troubled times. Callers recently have anxiety over election results, so this link is for Youtube videos where Abraham talks about Trump. Give a listen with an open mind. There is a way out of the madness. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Abraham+Hicks+on+Donald+Trump
