Thank you!
FYI, I meant older daughter, not old. She is only 23, not old at all. haha.
Umcka is (I believe) a homeopathic product which I LOVE. However, sometimes herbs work better. Gaia Herbs are wonderful. It is an excellent company! Wish Garden is a wonderful company also which sells small liquid herbal bottles for a multitude of ailments. I have met the owner and appreciate her values . She is very knowledgeable. One of my favorites is called Kiss Ass Immune. Another one is Get Over It! I know Sprouts carries them, I think Whole Foods does as well however Whole Foods no longer carries the depth of health and personal products in-store as they once did , before Amazon bought them. They assume everyone wants to buy these products online now. For me, when I am sick and need something NOW, I don't want to wait for it to come to my house in a few days. For that reason, I tend to try Sprouts first or if I see it at Whole Foods, I buy it in anticipation of needing it later.
Well you made me cry. Really appreciate what you wrote to me. Thank you. Feel terrible today physically... this was nice to see after a long day. Thank you to everyone who is holding me in the light. I sure need it.
I have meditated about you and your husband this afternoon, sending you warm light, healing energy and protection from illness. I hope you felt the warmth that saw as I thought about you both. Much love to you and swift recovery to your husband.
I'm familiar with the Gaia product, it contains many things I already take every day anyway, some of them Gaia brand too! I'm outright allergic to echinacea, and my body doesn't respond to elderberry, so tequila and pho for me!!
I take 10,000 units vitamin D3, and 1000mg zinc glycinate every day (among abuot 25 other things). Yet and still, this is the worst winter I've had in nearly 2 decades.
Many thanks to all of you for sending healing energy to my husband and me. My hubby is not coughing as much, which is a good sign.
@bluebelle, yes, I did feel the warmth -- literally! This afternoon I was feeling some chills and thought to myself "oh no!" My body began to warm up shortly after. Thank you!
@ghandigirl, I’m sorry that things were so physically hard for you today. Please let us know how things go tomorrow with your new doctor.
When you mentioned the pins and needles, I remembered that a good friend had a similar problem occur as she was weaning off clonazepam. Just an FYI. She is a sensitive soul and it was a slow process for her, but eventually she was able to regulate her body and achieve restful sleep.
Sending you love and prayers for a calm, peaceful night.
Had a good night's sleep...found some new affirmations and tried tapping my thumb and fingers. Relieved.
Two interesting things have happened. I used to find pennies all over my former house in odd places which I attributed to messages from spirit. Yesterday I found a penny not just in my shoe , but under the ped(sock) which covers my orthotics. so, INSIDE my shoe. How did it get there? Today the cat food spilled and as I was cleaning it up I found a ring with a pink stone I never saw before. The container has been empty several times and refilled, no ring that I saw. Yesterday I wore a different ring that was connected to my ex and wished for a different ring for myself.
And today, it appeared. Angels are trying to get my attention I think. Spirit is making it blatantly obvious!
Since being medicated I find that I am not as overtly connected psychically as I was. I had visions, and visitations, and a deep knowing. I still have flashes of intuition happening but now I feel skeptical. But yesterday I was so miserable physically that I spoke to my dad, and my dog, and G-d and asked for help. This ring on my finger makes me feel protected and connected and so deeply loved. I can't logically explain the penny or this ring. somebody up there loves me.
I completely understand. I don't know why but last Winter was the worst for me (thankfully I'm getting a break this Winter) I was sick from Jan-Early Feb then from late Feb till May. Plus I fell 3 times (down the stairs, then was hit by a car while in a bike pod, then on the ice on my back in a neck brace) Anyway, point is I just felt like I was being beaten up physically between accidents and illness for almost 6 mos. It was like I healed finally in October of this year. I betcha there were astrological indicators in my chart to show this and I wish I knew what they were lol. Hope you and your hubby feel great soon...sending some light and energy ?
@ghandigirl and ALL the moms here: My heart goes out to you. I'm praying for all of you and your children. This is such a rough time of year as it is with all the germs and the weather etc. Staying healthy is hard enough normally. Being a parent is not easy (I'm not one myself) and I admire all you wonderful moms. My heart is with you and sending everyone healing light and love. ❤️
@ghandigirl, I am happy to hear that your slept well last night. I've had my share of chronic insomnia, which can really debilitate your body, mind and spirit. It's amazing what a good night's rest can do.
I smiled as I read about the little spiritual gifts you discovered throughout your day. I loved your story, and immediately thought of @michele-b's Godlinks forum thread – all of those synchronistic events or messages we receive that help to direct, console, and uplift us.
I empathize with your struggles with anxiety, PTSD and depression. I’m glad that the tapping and affirmations worked well for you. I’m attaching a video of a simple exercise that can calm the sympathetic nervous system by stimulating the ventral branch of the vagus nerve. I received this from my physical therapist who does a lot of cranial/sacral therapy. The first time I tried it, I was having a major anxiety episode while trying to get to sleep, moving towards a panic attack. I was skeptical that this exercise would work and was surprised by how effective it was for me. I am now doing the exercise daily. If this resonates with you, perhaps it’s something you can add to your arsenal of coping mechanisms:

I agree with @bluebelle ’s belief that it is possible to heal yourself and your relationship with your daughter. Take it a day at a time. Above all, be kind to yourself.
And yes – somebody up there does love you – more some-bodies than you can imagine. And so do we in this community.
