I have been creating these small medicine bag/purses while I am unable to create my paintings on silk. I needed something creative to keep me from going crazy and I loved the symbolism of creating little medicine bags while I am healing.

These little pouches can be worn around you neck on your shoulder or at the hip looped over a belt. Fill one with healing elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air, healing herbs and crystals. Wear it yourself or give it to a friend or loved one as a symbol of healing. Buy two and use one to keep your keys and cell phone close when you don't want to carry a big pocketbook.

You can purchase them in my Etsy online shop: Link to My Etsy Shop

Rachel Naomi Remen Quote on Healing

Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn't you - all of the expectations, all of the beliefs - and becoming who you are.

Video Journal, Silk cover on Sketchbook

Since I am no longer busy running my silk studio and don't have the energy to start any big projects I needed to find something creative to do to keep me from going stir crazy so I am making a video journal of my progress on the new protocols I am taking for my Lyme induced neuro-immune issues.

This is the 3rd video journal have made since I started the new medical protocol. Today I had promised myself that no matter how sick I was I would finish putting the silk cover on the sketchbook I created for Art House Co-ops Sketchbook Project. The deadline to send it in was fast approaching and I was feeling some pressure to get it done and in the mail. I feel so grateful that I was able to finish this project  despite my health challenges.

Starting New Protocol for Neuro Lyme on 1/1/11 (Video)

Don made a video of me starting day 1 of the new Lyme treatment protocol on 1/1/11. We are both feeling VERY positive that I will see a huge improvement by Spring. When you first start treatment the die off of the bacteria makes you very sick, this is the Herxheimer reaction or Herx that I refer to in the video. I am starting on low doses so hopefully it won't be as bad as last time. Day one...it all starts here! Looking forward to a much healthier 2011!
