Thanks Mark for your last post...actually I was already speaking out loud by repeating what they said and touching the area in question...I didn't even know consciously that was a good thing for my brain, it just seemed a natural thing to do, yet not something I was necessarily doing before the accident (probably because I didn't need to). However, sometimes it helped and other times, it still took time for the correct information to get to my conscious brain. It is not something I would ponder in between sessions, more like an aha moment out of the blue...like it just took time to route its way through processing. It has gotten somewhat easier, but since I am not aware of it until that aha moment, it's hard to tell. The other odd thing is that last year I took a horse hoof trimming class and I now have trouble processing that information to something useful. Like the info is there, but jumbled...I knew by looking at my horse's hoof that there was a problem, but couldn't specify what, and then didn't know how to go about fixing it. I have to have someone else come out to trim their feet still. I now have fear that I cannot access this info correctly and don't trust myself yet to trim their feet myself. It involves things like geometry and measurments, not to mention a living conscious being at the other end of the hoof that might not be so cooperative while I "remember". I'm afraid about learning and retention, which doesn't help. This course was the last major thing I've learned as far as a new skill. I've been a massage therapist for 12 years, so it is much easier to trust my judgements on that....it is in my muscle memory if not in my brain. Not the case with the hoof trim training.

The CranioSacral work I received was the most helpful thing to date and I have more treatments set up but not until Sept, she is really booked up.
