I am still down in the dumps and it's starting to piss me off; God knows what it's doing to my nearest and dearest (DH,if you are reading this- bugger off!)
I'm pretty sure it's all tied into a kind of grief process over the loss of my friend, food. I've heard of people experiencing similar when they stop drinking or using drugs so it stands to reason it might be the same when you stop 'using' food.
Anyhow- today I had some reflexology so I want to witter on about it a bit. Reflexology is common referred to as a 'foot massage' but it's much more than that.Te idea is that areas on the feet correspond with areas of the body and as these are massaged, it has an effect on the areas/ organs of your body.
I have really ugly feet and I'm not too keen on people touching them. A lot of people feel like this and I often have people say to me 'I can't stand anyone touching my feet' but it's not ticklish and it is very relaxing. E comes to my house with a fold out chair and I have an hour of sitting down, with my feet up and having a chat. I am usually in a better mood after a treatment as well so it's good all round.
I don't like full body massages although have enjoyed dry floatation treatments in the past so if you are like me and don't enjoy strange people touching you, maybe a reflexology treatment is a good way to start being nice to your body.
