Today I finished a bunch of projects for my massage therapy class. Not anything major due now for a week, so I can concentrate on MUSCLES and then some more MUSCLES. I have learned an insane amount of body stuff in mere months! I can feel my body mechanics are finally clicking into place, taking the strain off my wrists and hands when I let them just relax and keep good posture. There are about a thousand different things you have to keep in mind when are are first learning so that, in time, they come naturally. There are also different discoveries I've made about myself... like holding major tension in my shoulders and jaw all the time. Getting almost daily massage and belly dance have helped immensely though, I don't feel as tight as I once did. It's good I'm healing this stuff now, some people hold tension in their bodies their entire lives and have to deal with various body pains as they age and bad habits solidify in the fascia. Then of course it's blamed on old age... "you'll see someday, honey!"
I got my silver coin bra top in the mail today! I have to paint the beads black to match the belt and figure out what to do about the bra situation for *underneath* the coin bra but I put on the entire ensemble and it looks so silvery and lovely! I feel like a temple dancer clothed in moonlight, jangling her noisy coins and bells to scare away the evil spirits. :P Sunday all the belly dancers in class are getting together at Ophelia's to rehearse the dance, pick out and try dancing in our costumes together and possibly get some pictures taken. I need to figure out something tasty to bring...
I think tonight shall be aromatherapy bath night!
