Blogger had technical difficulties yesterday and that is why the last post went away for a while. I'm disappointed because all of the comments that you guys added before yesterday were lost. But I assure you that Steve and I read them before they were lost and they were recognized very much appreciated.
The last few days have been pretty eventful. Steve's mom went home on Thursday and we are all missing her terribly. It was such a traumatic month where we leaned on one another and grew very close as a family. We felt extremely empty yesterday and just today we are beginning to snap out of it. Even though we know she will be back soon, it's hard letting our Me-Mom go. Thank you Me-Mom.
Steve had his second appointment yesterday with Leanne Crawford, life coach, hypnotherapist, and healer. She is outstanding in her profession and she is an overall very generous, giving and healing person. When she heard about what happened to Steve and how he was having trouble sleeping, she reached out to me to offer her professional services to help him. If you recall from previous posts, Steve's mind was racing constantly with thoughts of what happened to him and he was only sleeping for short 15 minute stints. It was terrible. Over the last two years, Steve and I have both been very open to alternative therapies, combined with traditional medicine, and Steve gratefully welcomed Leanne and her offer to help. We both recognize what an important part the mind and spirit play in healing. After Steve's first session with Leanne a week ago, I knew Leanne could help me too with the trauma of this life event so I have also been to Leanne twice. She is amazing. So, we've had life coaching and hypnotherapy and Steve is sleeping and thinking better and I am too. Part of our homework with Leanne is creating affirmations that we say throughout the day. Here is my one of my favorites so far: I love and accept myself and my circumstances.
Leanne's website is http://www.violetsourcehealing.com/. If I can figure out how to do it, I will provide the link to the right of this post.
