Hello, Everyone!  /  Bonjour à tous !

Every day I get reminders to share resources / Chaque jour, on me rappelle de partager mes ressources.

Help your beautiful brain help the entire body / Aidez votre merveilleux cerveau à  prendre soin de tout votre corps

[ Thank you, Linguee DeepL Translator / Merci beaucoup, Linguee DeepL Translator ]

Perhaps you are helping someone who is too ill to read about the latest findings from doctors, patients, and scientists who are helping people around the world understand neuroplasticity.  Neuroplasticity is the word to describe the brain’s ability to learn and adapt… that the brain changes itself…and, we can help the brain change in ways that benefit the entire body, especially after an illness or injury.

Peut-être aidez-vous quelqu’un qui est trop malade pour se tenir au courant des dernières découvertes… celles des médecins, des patients et des scientifiques qui aident les gens partout dans le monde à comprendre la neuroplasticité. La neuroplasticité est le terme qui désigne la capacité du cerveau à apprendre et à s’adapter.  Le cerveau est capable de se transformer ; nous pouvons l’aider à évoluer d’une manière bénéfique pour l’ensemble du corps, en particulier après une maladie ou une blessure.

The rest of this blog post will be in English only.

Le reste de cet blog post sera rédigé uniquement en anglais.

Are you helping someone who is ill?

I wish your loved one fast and strong healing.

I wish you wellness too. Your being an advocate or caregiver or both is an extraordinary gift.

Thank you to Dr. Eric Berg, Dr. Leonid Kim, and Dr. Daniel Amen for their YouTube channels.

Here are a few tricks to help your loved one … to help the brain help the entire body.

I learned them from the physicians and patients chronicled in books written by Norman Doidge, M.D., Danielle Rosenman, M.D., workbook and webinars from Dr. Michael Moskowitz and Dr. Marla Golden, my papa’s neurologists, physical therapist who was trained in movement disorder, and the folks at the UCSF Movement Disorders and Neuromodulation Center in San Francisco, California.

1.    Show your loved one photos of herself/himself when she/he was most vibrant. Tell your loved one that looking at photos and movies of the “Vibrant Self” isn’t vanity; the magnificent Brain needs visual cues to transmit messages at the cellular level.

Perhaps her/his cell phone wallpaper is a photo of children/grandchildren/a pet? Find a photo of her/him with the other people and ask her/him to make that photo the phone wallpaper. What better way for the Brain to “see” One’s vibrant self.

Perhaps you prefer to print a photo or photos.

Ask family members and friends to text-message photos to the person who would benefit from seeing her/his vibrant self.

2.     Smile at the person who is ill. Ask family members and friends to smile at her/him. Even when talking on the phone… when you are smiling…the person you are talking to will “hear” your smile.

Why smile at a person? When you smile… the other person might smile too. Even when the person cannot smile with ease right now (after a stroke)… her/his Brain will interpret the smiles as instructions to produce endorphins and dopamine.

https://neurolaunch.com/does-smiling-release-endorphins/

“Smiling and Brain Chemicals: The Science Behind Your Happy Face” NeuroLaunch editorial team August 22, 2024 … The simple act of smiling, whether genuine or forced, can set off a cascade of neurochemical reactions that profoundly influence our mood and overall well-being…. At the heart of this chemical symphony are two key players: endorphins and dopamine. These neurotransmitters, often referred to as “feel-good” chemicals, play crucial roles in regulating our emotions, motivation, and pleasure responses. While we often associate their release with more intense activities like exercise or thrilling experiences, mounting evidence suggests that the humble smile might be a powerful trigger for these mood-enhancing molecules….

To read the full article – https://neurolaunch.com/does-smiling-release-endorphins/

If the person who is ill says “What’s there to smile about?” Tell her/him that her/his beautiful Brain interpret smiling (even the thought of smiling) is natural medicine.  Smiling, looking at photos of One’s vibrant self, thinking about One’s vibrant self … all sweet elixirs for beautiful Brain.

Danielle Rosenman, M.D. says:

“The brain changes itself constantly throughout our entire lives. All of our experience changes the brain.

“Everything that we experience, think, feel, believe, and learn changes the physical structure of the brain, the chemicals in the brain, and electricity in the brain.

“This ability of the brain to change is called neuroplasticity.

“Neuroplasticity lets us learn through our entire lives.  The more often we repeat a task, the better we learn it. Repetition helps us learn things like reading, adding numbers, or playing a musical instrument. We often call this type of learning ‘practice’.”

During neuroplasticity coaching, Dr. Danielle Rosenman instructs:  “Smile for yourself and talk out loud to your brain. When you learn to talk to your brain, you are opening up a new life.”

Dear Readers,

Bonjour.

The suffering in this world …  the enormities of disasters … what can I do to ease the pain?

I have faith that if I share information relating to health which I’ve been fortunate to gain, surely the energy would help someone who would help someone else, on and on.

I am staying at dear friends’ home, however, not near wonderful chiropractor Dr. Jae Reed, D.C. https://azureskychiro.com/ to get treatments – Neuro Integration System and Neuro Emotional Technique…

Luckily, I found another wonderful chiropractor – Dr. Kerry Lilley, D.C.  https://chiropracticbenicia.com/

Why do I need a chiropractor?

The apartment in Paris I was in from March 1 – 26 was beautifully furnished, however, the person (who lived in the apartment above the one I was in) did not honor “Apartment-Living Rules”.  She would come home at all hours… walk in clunky shoes (fast walking too), and, she probably had removed floor rugs. The vibrations rolling across parquet floor when the entire building is quiet = unhealthy energy over my head.

Around 3:00am on March 4th,  my brain so tired from the disturbance… I thought taking a shower would do me good.

I forgot that the high-wall bathtub … I would need to “ride side saddle” going in and coming out.

I fell.. coming out of the tub.

The distance from the rim of the bathtub to the floor is 22 inches while the distance from my knee joint to the bottom of my foot is about 16 inches. If I were a horse in a steeplechase … my legs didn’t clear the extra 6 inches.  So, I fell. BAMM.

[ Thank you, Marisa, for having taught me how to fall safely (Aikido wisdom) https://lovemadeofheart.com/blog/mountain-turtle-marisa/   While falling, time went into slow motion for me to stretch out both arms to minimize injuries. ]

At the time, I thought only my right knee sustained minimal impact.  Wrong.

During my last two weeks in City of Light… my wanting to join my friends, I used Le Métro (Paris subway) … oh the stairs and more stairs … I realized that the right side of my body had been injured.

Last week, I learned from Dr. Lilley what the Psoas muscles are.

Today (May 29), during treatment, I asked Dr. Lilley to examine my wrists. Why are they achy with heat?

She said:
“Your smart body knows what to do. The heat you’re feeling in your wrists is your body’s way to release the trauma. Drink water. When exhaling, release the out breath twice. Release the trauma. Increase vitamin C for the time being.”

I thank Dr. Kerry Lilley https://chiropracticbenicia.com/, Dr. Jae Reed https://azureskychiro.com/, Stephanie Wilger, NC https://stephaniewilgernc.net/,

Dr. Amy Grace Lam https://www.vibrationalenergywellness.com/, Marie-Christine Cornet https://www.mariechristinecornet.com/,

Gilles Marin https://www.chineitsang.com/, and all the healers who have taught me how to listen to my Brain-Body communicate… how to continue fostering the Smart Body.

I thank everyone who has encouraged me to seek help.

I thank everyone who plays a role in helping me find ways to Wellness.

Hello Everyone,

I wish you vibrant health!

Thanks to Everyone Who Cares About me,  Healers, Books, Our Immune System, Our Beautiful Ever-Changing Brain, Our Internal Organs, Our Body and Vitality!

In August 2020 (which was five months into “Shelter In Place” in the county I lived in during the COVID pandemic), Shingles virus “woke up” in my body …oh the pain and the rash on one side of upper torso. Then after the blisters cleared, the overwhelming pain stayed. This condition is called “postherpetic neuralgia”.

Brain-Body worn out from fighting.  So-called pain meds flooded my systems to the point I was too dizzy to make my way to the toilet without having to use the nearest wall for support. Warning labels on prescriptions said “take with food” which meant setting the clock to wake myself every few hours… depriving my body of rest.

The reason for “take with food” and how just one accidental overdose of pain meds could damage my liver or kidneys and how to give myself uninterrupted sleep  … were explained to me by a nurse who practiced “slow medicine” on the phone with me; she even helped me create a schedule so that I wouldn’t be taking the meds that require “take with food” while I should be sleeping.

I thank Victoria Sweet, M.D. for writing her books:

GOD’S HOTEL: A Doctor, a Hospital, and a Pilgrimage to the Heart of Medicine.

SLOW MEDICINE The Way to Healing

My pain just would not stop, even though the Shingles virus had run its course and the rash had healed.

Fast forward

Luckily for me, through neuroplasticity coaching from Dr. Danielle Rosenman, and,

books by Norman Doidge, M.D., and,

lectures by Professor Lorimer Moseley about the “role of pain” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5p6sbi_0lLc

and the workbook TRANSFORMING THE BRAIN IN PAIN: NEUROPLASTIC TRANSFORMATION by Dr. Michael H. Moskowitz  and Dr. Marla D. Golden,

and, moral support from dear folks  who care about me …

I was successful retraining my Brain to stop sending chronic pain signals to Body Tissue.

However the pain sensation morphed into a sticky damp heat sensation.

These symptoms then awakened another virus in my nervous system. Also, COVID-Vaccination worsened my condition.

My internal thermostat is stuck at an uncomfortable down right yucky setting. My immune system had needed to use heat when Shingles virus got activated; however, my system is still in “fight” mode three years later.

Illness leads to depression … a nasty loop.

This is what happens when our systems are “too aggressive” trying to protect us.

By the way – Shingles is caused by the varicella-zoster virus — the same virus that causes chickenpox. After a person has had chickenpox, the virus lies inactive in nerve tissue near the spinal cord and brain. Years later, the virus may reactivate as shingles. https://www.mayoclinic.org/

The “memories” of viruses (keloid scars from Shingles rash a “convincing” reminder)… telling my systems to continue fighting. Body doesn’t forget anything!

Fast forward, again…

Through receiving Chi Nei Tsang treatments from Marie-Christine Cornet,  and from Gilles Marin, master teacher and practitioner, and from  Stephanie Wilger, NC, instructor-level practitioner … my Body learned new ways to communicate with the Brain

Through sessions with Dr. Amy Grace Lam, my conscious Brain learned how to listen to my Body and how to respond.

Through receiving Neuro Integration System (N.I.S.) treatments and Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) treatments from a master-level practitioner who is a chiropractor  – Dr. Jae Reed, D.C … my Body-Brain circuitry is learning how to reset and restore systems to harmony.

Clear communication between Brain and Body REMOVES the obstacles, letting the Body repair itself the best way possible -  naturally.

*  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *

Chi Nei Tsang translates as “internal organs chi transformation”.

*  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *

*  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *

Thanks to the encouragement from the folks I care about and who care about me, I  resume my work as a writer and story-consult and blogger, go to treatments, re-read books to learn about how hard the human body works, and, I turn depression into appreciating one moment at a time.

My Quest to Wellness by learning from Holistic Healers on how to receive and send instructions for what I call “Brain-Body peace talks”.

I am grateful to:

the book - Immune: A Journey into the Mysterious System That Keeps You Alive

Thank you, dear Sue, for gifting me the book

Immune: A Journey into the Mysterious System That Keeps You Alive

by Philipp Dettmer, creator of the popular science YouTube channel “Kurzgesagt—In a Nutshell”

https://www.youtube.com/@kurzgesagt/videos

Page 62 of the book IMMUNE: A Journey into the Mysterious System That Keeps You Alive by Philipp Dettmer
“Inflammation is the universal response of your immune system to any sort of breach or damage or insult. No matter if you burn yourself, cut yourself, or get a bruise. No matter if bacteria or viruses infect your nose, lungs, or gut. No matter if a young tumor kills a few civilian cells by stealing their nutrients or you have an allergic reaction to a food, inflammation is the response. Damage or danger – PERCEIVED OR REAL – causes inflammation.”

Book description from the publisher:

“You wake up and feel a tickle in your throat. Your head hurts. You’re mildly annoyed as you get the kids ready for school and dress for work yourself. Meanwhile, an epic war is being fought, just below your skin. Millions are fighting and dying for you to be able to complain as you head out the door.

“But most of us never really stop to ask: What even is our immune system?

“Second only to the human brain in its complexity, it is one of the oldest and most critical facets of life on Earth. Without it, you would die within days. In IMMUNE, Philipp Dettmer, the brains behind the most popular science channel on YouTube, takes readers on a journey through the fortress of the human body and its defenses. There is a constant battle of staggering scale raging within us, full of stories of invasion, strategy, defeat, and noble self-sacrifice. In fact, in the time you’ve been reading this, your immune system has probably identified and eradicated a cancer cell that started to grow in your body.

“Each chapter delves into an element of the immune system, including defenses like antibodies and inflammation as well as threats like bacteria, allergies, and cancer, as Dettmer reveals why boosting your immune system is actually nonsense, how parasites sneak their way past your body’s defenses, how viruses work, and what goes on in your wounds when you cut yourself.

“Enlivened by engaging full-color graphics and immersive descriptions, IMMUNE turns one of the most intricate, interconnected, and confusing subjects — immunology — into a gripping adventure through an astonishing alien landscape. IMMUNE is a vital and remarkably fun crash course in what is arguably, and increasingly, the most important system in the body.”

Thank you, YouTube Channel User The Agenda | TVO Today for posting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifYcE4-eI_s

“For a very long time scientists thought the brain was an organ beyond treatment. If something went wrong or if one was born with a deficit, the conclusion was ‘tough luck.’ Not so anymore. There are revolutionary techniques that can alleviate anything from chronic pain to Parkinson’s disease or Down syndrome. Dr. Norman Doidge lays it out in his book The Brain’s Way of Healing: Remarkable Discoveries and Recoveries from the Frontiers of Neuroplasticity. He’ll discuss this, and more, with Steve Paikin. ”

Dr. Norman Doidge explains:

“The Brain is NOT like a fixed hard-wired machine. The Brain changes it’s wiring – the word that describes this property is neuroplasticity. The Brain’s structure and functions can be changed by our activities and by our mental experiences.”

“Using energy to facilitate neuroplasticity for healing.  The ancient word ‘hælan’ – to cure, to restore, to make whole again.”
