Re: There's Healing Journey 2018
Defining what our obstacles to healing and happiness are is really important, and I'm glad you've seen that in using the word disorder to describe what you deal with. Seems like a big step to me.

Re: There's Healing Journey 2018
spirit,
thanks for your empathy in post.
Discussed same with T yesterday. She also was very supportive about my standing up to Yoga teacher.
This is harder to talk about today, but am making some progress on future employment front. Saw rehab/vocational counselor yesterday. Did her homework assignment for next visit in 2 weeks.
T wants me to bring in my concerns and needs about this area of my life.
Teaching this afternoon. Planning my statement to students about using mean words.... stupid, ugly... in my class. If I hear it, you'll be warned. If you've said it before in class and repeat it, you're welcome out of class for the day. They know my rule about criticisms. Not during this class as not creative but destructive.
Boom. Done. Just cross me.
Brother and I installed new A/C last night. Have to pay seasonal fee.

Hi there,
I never get tired of your user name. It always makes me smile. Two things briefly in MY OPINION only:
1) Teaching that carefully using words to help rather than make cruel judgement or hurt may be more important to the students than any course material you teach. They may not get it but it is so important.
2) Air conditioning is a luxury that is totally worth the extra price. Ahh. I don't like to be overheated. Enjoy
happy summer,
Harmony

Re: There's Healing Journey 2018
there,
It's good to read what's going on with you.
Hoping your class goes well. I have a big boundary on hurtful words in my classroom, too. They need to learn how important it is.
Glad you're able to get some cool air now. It's truly important for sleep, I think.
sending hugs,

Harmony, spirit, Jitterbug,
Thank you, all! Teaching about kindness and doing my best to exemplify it are so important!
Class went well. I hear from kids and a librarian how my class is the most fun! Good, clean fun is my aim.
Honestly, fun is how my closer siblings and I survived childhood. In fact, I think fun makes us resilient and helps us to thrive!
Guys just came to pick up dining table,with chairs. Set was given to me by a neighbor who was moving. I liked it, but it wasn't my choice. I need 2 sturdy high stools for my dining table that's been in the bedroom. Generally, I need to keep reducing clutter for more work space.
Time to call Apple for computer repair.
Onward and ...

there,
What's a fun memory you have with your closer siblings?
My two younger sisters have a lot more memories than I do. I like to hear them laugh about what happened.

Hi there,
Thought of you today, when talking to a councelor friend who uses EFT, among other “there approved” tools/methods/strategies.
Great to keep classroom language peaceful. very important, as is fun.
Hope you have had a positive weekend and beginning of the week.

spirit,
Thanks! I'm really tired tonight but will answer your question soon.
Dewdrop, so good to read a post from you.
Just checking in a bit. In a sort of uncomfortable place, in a way. Hoping it will pass and I can move ahead with some , hopefully, plans.
Squirming writing that.
I don't believe in the T. I see her, but I believe in me.

there,
Hoping you will move into a more comfortable space, soon. You are focused on the positive, so I know you will.
I admire your statement, "I believe in me." Trying to get to that place.
