badseed1980This post is about bento and reiki. Next thing you know, I'll be watching anime. OK, that's not all that likely. I just have a hard time getting into it, even the good stuff (i.e., stuff with a story I'd like if it were in a format other than anime).
So. Bento today was a one-tier with a layer of decoratively trimmed cucumber slices on the bottom, a mound of mujadarah with a little drizzle of olive oil in the middle, a slice of lemon (for squeezing over the mujadarah) and some grape tomatoes on one side, and a Laughing Cow Light Swiss wedge on the other. NOM. I had that after some TJ's Garden Patch veggie soup. A cup of that stuff is only 60 calories, no fat, and 3g of fiber. Awesome "appetizer." I have berries for after.
Reiki. I got my level 1 attunement on Saturday night, at a workshop at a friend's house. The workshop and the attunement were nifty, and I've been practicing since then. It seems to be doing good things for my digestive system, my prone-to-hurting right thigh/butt cheek, and my chronically ouchy lower back. Nifty! I also did some on some plants yesterday. We'll see how that goes. And this healing-related thing brings me to some bad news: my mom broke her ankle in two places yesterday! There was a small fire in the woods behind their house (no serious damage done), and my dad ran out to hose down the woods closest to the yard to help prevent the spread of the fire. My mom ran up to the top of the little hill in the yard to see, and when she came down, the water from the hose had made the grass slippery. She slipped, and her leg went under her. Ouch! Poor mom. As of yesterday evening, the plan was for her to get screws put in this morning. :( I'm going to have to give her some reiki when I see her next.

Date: 2009-06-01 05:58 pm (UTC)I've been practicing since then, too - doing some of the "nifty reiki tricks," and doing it on myself. I'll have to do some for F later - he just got a new cast and an x-ray. He's healing ok, just needed a new cast.
It was a good workshop, and a neat experience. I guess I'm one of those excited about seeing what it can do!
