Reply to "Finding it hard to stay optimistic"

 Sharon-- Great if you're getting some relief from the NSAIDs and the chiropractor.   You deserve it.  Especially good that you can get in some walking as it helps clear the head versus being stuffed inside.

 Was treated by the acupuncturist today for pain associated with my shoulder replacement as well as some other body parts  that scream at me. So far so good, but how long it will last is another question.   Maybe  just a break in the pain cycle is what I need  until I can get the brace off and start moving my shoulder.    Fortunately she didn't even suggest the smelly herbs. I concur cooking them up is really dreadful and it's best to find a pharmacy that will do it for you. 

Previously I suggested some sort of dance or movement  class or Thai Chi.  That might not be for you, and I can understand that. Another suggestion is ying yoga, where you hold positions for 3 to 5 minutes. All poses are done  lying down on the mat and are very passive. I always feel  energized after the classes  and my body was almost pain-free.

 Sending you lots of cyber hugs and healing WhiteLight. Peace,  Janet
