Lymphatic class

I am taking Lymph two this weekend. I am excited because this type of massage is great for people who are elderly and those who have been hurt. I can't wait to get to the point where I understand it all a little more. Then I will start practicing on others.

So I am in another class at UOP I know I was going to take a break but I have to finish up this Financial Aid award year. Then I get to take a break for a little while. I don't have that much left to finish my degree so maybe by next summer I can throw a party to celebrate :) This class is interesting and so far we have covered the different types of communication that are shown through the tone of your voice. Which is why online communication is so much harder to really understand the meaning of what the person is saying. Oh well this class ends on November 1st and I think after that I get a break until after the new year which would be a good thing.

Break Time

I have decided after much deliberation that I will be taking a break from massage school for a few months. I need to spend more time focusing on getting my life in order and getting Hank situated with doing homework and being a "big kid". I will however be going back to University of Phoenix starting October 4th. This however is not as big of a deal for me as far as getting homework done and spending time with Hank.

Wish me luck....I will start using this blog again once I am back in school on a more regular basis.

Auriculotherapy

Yes that is a word! And it means treating body symptons on the ear. I have this class Friday and Saturday from 8:30 until 6:30. At least now I know how hard it is to sit in a ten hour class. I do not envy the students who do this all the time. The information is great and I love it! We get to use electro-stimulation so be wary that I might just want to try it on you!

School Update

So I have not had the time to post forever! Or at least it seems like forever. So here is just a quick update on school.

Until August 4th I am attending a Swedish massage class three days a week in the middle of the day. I also attend monday night classes. I am still taking Tai Chi which I totally love. All I need to do now is find the time to practice it in the evenings. Next term will be a little less busy, but I will have classes two nights a week and then two weekend seminars which go Friday and Saturday from 8:30-6:30 I don't know how our students do this so I am going to give it a shot.

University of Phoenix is still going OK. I am in the last week of my Organizational Psychology class. This class has been interested but also a lot of busy work. This is the description of my World Mythology course which starts on July 19th.
This course provides an overview of mythology and its relationship to ancient and current cultures. The course covers the purposes and types of myths; the development of myths and mythological characters; the common elements of mythological structures; the predominant characteristics of deities and heroes in myth and the obstacles and dangers that these archetypes encounter; how myths effect our personal and social lives; where these ancient archetypes are found in contemporary society; and how attitudes and behaviors are influenced by mythological literature.

Oh well after all of this I will finally have a degree. Well two degrees but education is worth it. I keep reminding myself of that one.

Learning about crystals

So tonight I went to my Energy Essentials class although I was a little loopy from pain killers. We had a great time, I was able to meditate without helping Hank in his meditation. Then we learned more about crystals and stones. It is pretty cool to think that a quartz crystal can run a watch, and if you meditate with one you can feel the energy. I totally loved it and it was a great distraction from my teeth.
