fully understand and agree about reiki and prayer and herbs and the rest of that bullshit, but i'm a little confused as to how chiropractic care got lumped in with those

Chiropractors are quacks, full stop.

There is nothing that a chiropractor can do for you that a physical therapist couldn't do better or that a massage therapist wouldn't be able to assist with.

There are specific conditions that can cause joint subluxation, but unless you have one of them, your joints are probably perfectly fine where they are and if they are not that is something that would be better (and more safely) assessed by someone who is actually qualified to provide some variety of medical care (which chiropractors are not, they are licensed to provide chiropractic care, which is pseudoscience on your spine, which is a bad place to do pseudoscience). And if you do have those conditions you shouldn't let a chiropractor touch you with a ten foot pole because you are at even *more* risk of harm from spinal manipulation than the general population is.

When I was in college and didn't have health insurance and was working at a coffee shop I couldn't afford $150 out of pocket to go see a doctor, but I could afford $45 to see a chiropractor.

What the chiropractor didn't know - because she wasn't a doctor and didn't have the diagnostic tools for this kind of thing - was that I didn't have back pain because my spine was out of place, I had back pain because I had a bone tumor in my spine, and her adjustment fractured one of my lumbar vertebrae.

When I did get insurance I finally figured out what was wrong (after using a cane and dealing with excruciating back pain from my cracked spine I had to quit my job at the coffee shop because I couldn't reliable stand on shift) when I got an MRI. The pain was treated with muscle relaxants, oral steroids, and physical therapy, none of which would have broken my fucking back.

Chiropractic, even when practiced "competently" by an expert with the most modern and most rigorous scientific training available, is still more dangerous and less effective than other interventions. All of which is aside from the fact that there are a shitload of chiropractors out there who will claim to treat asthma and autism, which they can't do and are shitty for claiming to be able to do.

Top to bottom, all through its history, chiropractic is a scam that hurts more people than it helps and because of our fucked up medical care in the US specifically has been largely predatory on people who can't afford real treatment for their illnesses and injuries.

Also, if you are ever going to see a chiropractor - though i wish you wouldn't - never, ever, ever, EVER let them manipulate your neck. Chiropractic spinal manipulation of the neck can lead to severing the arteries in your neck, causing a stroke. This HAS killed people, and as long as chiropractors keep doing it, it will kill more people.

Fuck - and I cannot emphasize this enough - chiropractic.

A Dance with Bast

"Consciousness expresses itself through creation. This world we live in is the dance of the Creator. Dancers come and go in the twinkling of an eye but the dance lives on. On many an occasion when I am dancing, I have felt touched by something sacred. In those moments, I felt my spirit soar and become one with everything that exists. I become the stars and the moon. I become the lover and the beloved. I become the victor and the vanquished. I become the master and the slave. I become the singer and the song. I become the knower and the known. I keep on dancing and then, it is the eternal dance of creation. The Creator and the creation merge into one wholeness of joy. I keep on dancing — until there is only … the dance."

Michael Jackson "The Dance" - from inlay sleeve of Dangerous (1991)

"I would believe only in a god who could dance. And when I saw my devil I found him serious, thorough, profound, and solemn: it was the spirit of gravity - through him all things fall."

Friedrich Nietzsche - "Thus Spoke Zarathustra"

I was participating in a pathworking meditation during my Reiki I° class. I was instructed to focus on my Soul Star chakra (also known as the Vyapani or universal heart) and that I would manifest a sacred space there. To my surprise, the space that I found myself in was a sacred library that I dreamed of many years before.

As I walked around this space, I noticed Bast sitting in a plush, crimson velvet chair. There was a hearth behind Her radiating warmth from a cozy, crackling fire. I approached Bast and bowed with my hands outstretched, a posture of devotion known as henu. Bast smiled and after a period of pleasant silence, I asked Her if She wanted to dance with me. The Goddess rose from Her seat and walked towards me with calm, authoritative grace.

Bast was covered from head to toe in short, black fur. Her eyes were green, Her teeth radiant and sharp. She wore a flowing but simple, turquoise-colored dress in a modern style, accented with gold leaf. She wore gold bracelets on her wrists and ankles, gold armlets above the elbow in a serpentine design, and a stunning gold Wesekh collar adorned with jade, sapphires, blue amethysts, and emeralds. She had earrings of emerald and wore simple but elegant jade pumps on her feet. Her nails (more like claws) were refined but sharp. She was about my height if not an inch or so taller.

She took my hands in Hers and we began to waltz around this space. As we danced, it felt as though we had done so many, many times before. The Goddess spoke and I listened. She told me that I have come a long way and there is much yet that I must do. She told me to relax and loosen up a bit more. “Have fun and enjoy life! Do everything that you desire. That is what life is for.” Her face became brighter, soft, and encouraging, and with a joyous smile and twinkle in Her eye She told me the words that I will remember for the rest of my life, “Life can be beautiful if you let it.”

And with that, we danced on, smiling and free, as my awareness returned to my teacher’s living room. My head turned to the right and outside the tall windows, I could see the sun rising slowly into its zenith.

Life is not meant to be a breeze. Misfortune, mistakes, and loss are there to teach and shape us, if we are so inclined to listen. Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder and after that experience, which I chose to believe was authentic, I began to ask myself, “Why not try to see the beauty in life? Why not see the good?”

And so, I began to realize that such a mindset was a choice. I chose to see each moment not in a glass-half-full sort of way, but as an opportunity for creation. I began to cultivate openness, acceptance, gratitude, and ingenuity as a state of being. The more I embodied the beauty and goodness that I wanted to see in the world, the more I found that it was.

Dua Bast!

Elrond's Homely House

~A spell to create a space of peace, rest and healing~

What you need

A room or space within your home

Quartz crystals for each corner of the room.

Incenses for peace and healing (chamomile, cedar wood, sage, or any you associate with those concepts)

White candles, as many as you deem necessary. I used pillar candles for creating the space and use tealights when I am actively healing within my space.

Gems or herbs you associate with healing and peace

White cloth to wrap each crystal in when not in use.

WARNING: Keep crystals and herbs up and out of the reach of children, first for their safety, and second so as to not disturb the magic.

What to do

Cleanse and prepare your space, by physically cleaning it, then whatever other methods you use.

Cleanse and prepare yourself. I shower before ritual work, then meditate to center and ground myself.

Light your candles and incense to raise the energy of the concepts you’re seeking to bring into the space. Open or close the windows, open the blinds, whatever you must do to make the space comfortable for the work at hand. Natural light and fresh air are best.

Arrange your tools. I set the white cloth out before the candles and incense, placing the crystals atop it to charge them in the light of the candles and the smoke from the incense.

Center yourself as one by one you pick up the crystals. Focus on your peace of mind, that feeling. As you find the inner peace, visualize that feeling seeping into the crystals and reflecting it back like the light from the candles, and imagine the healing smoke of the incense filling the crystals. As you hold each one say “Deep in the safety of the valley, all troubles be put at ease. Here find peace and harmony, and the healing which you need.”

Wrap each of the crystals in a piece of the white cloth, either with or without the other herbs and gems you’re using for the ritual. Unwrap them only when you’re actively healing within this space.

Place each of the wrapped crystals in a corner of the room out of the reach of pets and children. As you do so, envision an aura of light being strung up between the crystals, creating a space between them that is warm, full of light and peace. Say “Within this place, this sacred space, may only peace be had. And when you leave, feel renewed, smile, and be glad.”

Clean up, enjoy the peace you’ve made within this space. If you bring anyone into this space that needs peace of mind or healing, unwrap the crystals and light some of the white candles, make sure the space is calm and clear of negativity. Play music that soothes you or the person and relax.

Check the crystals as necessary, recharge them when you feel the space has become cluttered with negative energy or is no longer peaceful. There are many ways to tweak this spell/ ritual. Casting a circle or calling the elements for their aid in creating this space work as well.

I worked through a version of this ritual with my friend who does Reiki at her gem store up the street and she does a variation of this before every session she does. For her, she doesn’t wrap the crystals, but places them on a table at the center of her store in beautiful crystal grids. I have only done a few healings for others, myself, and that is why I choose to wrap my healing crystals, which I keep up on shelves behind pictures, until I am using my space for any healing magic. My crystals are of course wrapped with (you guessed it) fresh sweet basil leaves, as well as sage, lavender and dried dandelions.

Good Luck and Happy Casting Witches!

M.G.

Read the not so direct sequel -> Daydream

You met him through the latest dating app.

One that was mainly used to just hook up with people that were close by.

That should’ve been your first warning.

When he invited you to hang at a music festival taking place in the middle of the desert of fucking nowhere?

That should’ve been your second warning.

And the third? Well. That’s going to come later.

Transcendence is a massive festival around these parts, it seems. It’s three days of indie, alt, and punk music. Most people come out here in tents, campers, and RV’s alike to camp out.

As you begin the strenuous trek from the public parking section of the huge lot, you see other festival goers around you dressed in an eclectic mix of boho chic fashion trends, punk and alt styles, and what you can only describe as ‘homeless but make it $10,000’.

Finally making it past the festival gates after getting through what they deemed as ‘security’, but was really two people who acted like they really didn’t want to to be there and rushed everyone through, you realize this whole thing might be better than you originally thought. Eclectic art sculptures, people doing yoga, witnessing what you could only assume is some weird hippie pagan ritual, a man with a goat, and of course, the heavy smell of pot permeating throughout.

Wandering further into the festival, you seem to make it to the food portion of it. As you’re checking out the diverse food stalls as well as art installations littered around, your attention is suddenly drawn by an exaggeratedly loud and obnoxious giggle. You cringed. This girl was laying it on thick. You couldn’t help but overhear the conversation she was in, keeping your back to her and her mystery partner, not yet sure who she was talking with, but you wanted to see if her tactic would work.

“Yeah, so, like, your chakras are probably out of line. I could give you a reiki massage or—,” she trailed off in a suggestive tone. The only thing you could make out from your peripheral was that she was one of the boho dressed festival goers. You bit your lip to prevent the laugh that was starting to bubble up your throat, about ninety percent sure that this isn’t the first time she’s more than likely used this line on someone.

Deciding to take a peak, you acted as if you were stretching as you turned your body around to face them. To your surprise, it’s not just one boho chic girl, but a group of them. They were all surrounding one very relaxed guy who is leaning against what appears to be a renovated school bus and smoking a joint.

“Maybe another time.” The male spoke, disinterested, yet wore a friendly smile.

You snorted in disbelief, but thoroughly amused.

It was your supposed date for the evening — Jung Hoseok.

You’re not dating him, he’s free to do whatever he wants. With a confident strut, you approach. His eyes flicker up to meet yours when he notices you approach, his grin widening with each step you take towards him.

“Y/N!”

He practically shakes off the gaggle of women as he passes off his joint to a random person and jogs over to you the rest of the way. As he goes in for a hug, you begin to feel mischievous. You decided to take it one step further and lean up to press your lips firmly to his instead. To your surprise, he goes with it. Securing an arm around your waist, he pulls your body flush against his and returns the kiss in fervor.

When he pulls away, he’s smiling wider, if that’s even possible. You give him your flirtiest wink.

“I’m so glad you made it.” He spoke sincerely, voice laced with relief and excitement.

That’s when the previous boho chick wanted to ensure you both that she was still there.

“Uh, do you know them, Hobi?”

You both turn back to the woman, his arm still hung around your waist and your hand splayed on his chest as you lean against him. Some of the women have dispersed, clearly realizing that you are the one Hoseok is interested in. You look up to him to answer and see his eyes flash with a mischievous glint of their own.

“Yeah. This is y/n. We’re childhood friends.”

You feign a look of betrayal, the hand that was once on his chest coming up to cover your mouth before you smacked him in the chest, hard. He gave a wince at your action, but let you continue with your own little act.

“Is that all we are? What am I going to tell our son?!”

“S—Son?” He choked on his own spit, reply broken up as he stuttered, flabbergasted at the direction where you chose to take this charade of yours. “You didn’t tell me I had a son.”

“It’s because I adopted him and signed your name. Your signature isn’t as complicated as you think.”

He gave a fake sigh, shaking his head in mock disappointment.

“You told me you wouldn’t do that again. In fact, you promised me, y/n.”

“Well—,” you paused for dramatic effect. “I lied to you. It was the only way.”

He rips his body away from yours as if being burned, crossing his arms over his chest. Angling his body away from yours, he replies angrily.

“I can’t believe you’ve conned me into adopting more children! I can’t forgive you this time.” He made a show of beginning to walk away as you threw yet another layer on top of your snowball of a lie.

“What if I told you I was pregnant?” Your face was serious when he stopped and pivoted on his heel to give you a look that was just as serious as yours.

“I would tell you to stop that.”

“Fair enough.”

“Right. Good luck with that.” The boho chick piped in, a look of disgust on her face.

The women dispersed after that, clearly not in on the joke and vaguely confused in general. Once they’re long out of sight, you look at Hoseok and snicker. He gives you a clap on the back, amused by the whole situation.

“Sorry. Were they your friends?” You face was one of faux concern, but your sarcastic tone contradicted it entirely.

“Okay.” He smiled sheepishly. “So, don’t judge me.”

“Oh boy.”

“I have no clue what any of their names are. They just kinda latched onto me from the moment I got here.”

“If you can just attract people like that, why the hell were you on that dating app?” You asked, genuinely curious, but not judging.

He clicked his tongue, pointing finger guns at you as he replied back.

“Well, see, there’s just a fundamental issue with all of them.”

“Which is….?” You trailed off, eyes squinting at him.

“None of them were you, of course.”

You throw your head back and let out a loud laugh and he swears he could listen to you laugh all day if you’d let him.

“What a smooth talker you are, Hoseok.”

“Hobi. Just call me Hobi.” He smiled warmly at you as you regained control of yourself from your little fit of laughter.

“Hobi.” You like the way it rolls off your tongue as you test it out, equally as warm smile appearing on your face in return.

“Shall we?” He thumbs behind him, then leads the way back over to the bus he was previously leaning on when you first saw him as you trailed steps behind him.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

“Can I get you something? Beer? Wine? Tequila?”

“Tequila, please.”

“Good choice.”

After popping open a folding chair so that you can settle in and sit down, he runs up the steps and into the elongated school bus. He then returns shortly, stepping down carefully with two red solo cups in hand. He passes one to you that you take with a grateful smile, murmuring your thanks. Unfolding another chair, he sits down next to you and takes a swig of the tequila. You do the same.

A comfortable silence forms, lasting all of five seconds until you can no longer hide your growing curiosity on the eyesore that is the bus in front of you.

“So, is that a school bus?”

“Huh?” He seemed to zone out for a second, his eyes surveying fellow festival goers as they walked past you both. “Oh, yeah.”

He laughs, looking back at the bus fondly. It’s definitely a school bus, but it’s been painted over, slate blue and white. Although, currently, it has more of a dusted orange tint to it due to the desert. He then satiated your wondering mind with an explanation.

“It was a project I’ve been working on for awhile. I’m just kinda traveling, so I decided to redo a bus and make it my home for the time being.” He then went on to describe exactly how much work he put into it which had you guffaw at him, face morphing into one of shock with each thing he listed. “Ripped out the inside, popped in a bed, a stereo system, a kitchen. It’s pretty lit inside if I do say so myself. I’ll show you later.”

As you’re about to ask another question, a group of alt guys walk by.

“Hey, Hobi!” The two fist bump with bright smiles.

“Hey! What’s up, man? You guys all finished with the sets?” Hobi asks the mystery male.

“Yeah! You wanna come hang with us at the pirate ship?”

Pirate ship? Why are you not surprised.

“Maybe later, man.”

Finally seeming to notice you through his stoner haze, the guy shifts his attention over to you. He smacks Hobi on the shoulder with a cheeky grin.

“Yo, who’s this?”

“This is y/n, she’s my—,” he looks over at you to finish, leaving it up to you. He should’ve known by now that that wouldn’t be a wise idea.

��I’m pregnant with his child.”

You stare point blank at the alt guy, as you take another large swig of the tequila that he obviously hasn’t noticed you nursing this whole time. Hobi just snorts and doubles over in laughter at your completely straight face.

He swears, you should become an actress. He curiously then wonders if you are, cause it would make a whole lot of sense if it was true. He stored that question in his mind to ask you later.

You continued on with your ruse, the guy fully believing you still, no doubt due to the high he was currently on.

“We met at the last music festival. Figured I’d better track him down and make an honest man out of him and whatnot.” You waved your hand in the air lazily, emitting an aura of nonchalance.

“We’re going to name the kid after the next music festival we attend together.”

“Tight. Alright man, we’ll catch you later. Nice meeting you, Hobi’s baby momma.”

“Yup. Later, bro.”

He gives one last fist bump to your apparent ‘baby daddy’ and salutes you with a wink, then he and the rest of the alt guys walk off and leave you two alone, yet again.

Your male companion then turns back to you with a wide smile, looking you up and down as if studying you.

“So, seeing as I’m gonna be a dad to our little music festival baby—,” he trailed off with a deep chuckle. “Tell me a bit about yourself?”

You angle your body in the chair towards him as you chug the rest of your tequila, feeling the burn as it slides down your throat and into your stomach with a warming sensation. He mimics your position in his own chair, chugging his drink to match your pace. Once done, he offers to take yours and he slides it underneath his, putting it in the cup holder on his chair.

When his attention was back on you, did you answer his question.

“I’m an artist.”

“Oh? Sick. What kind of artist?”

“I’m a musician.”

He could feel the effects of the alcohol take a slight toll on him as he says his next words.

“There’s something really beautiful about that. You’ll fit in around here.”

You could tell he was sincere with his words, and it made you give him a warm smile.

“Mhm. I already do!”

“Hey.” He leans in your direction. “But do you love what you do?”

“Yes.” Like Hobi, the effects of the tequila were starting to hit you as well, and if he found sober you entertaining? He was going to love drunk you. “And let me tell you.” You lift your pointer finger at him with emphasis. “The whole ‘if you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life thing’ that people always spew? Yeah, that’s bullshit.”

Noticing the slight hostility in your voice, he comes to the conclusion that this may or may not be a sensitive topic for you and decides it’s time to talk about something else, or better yet, do something else.

“Anyways, we’re here, might as well experience it to the fullest, right?” He offers, though backtracks a bit as he thinks on what exactly can occur during this music festival. “Although, if you just wanted to hang around here for now, I get it. Day one of any festival is pretty rowdy around this time.”

“What do you mean?” Considering this is the very first music festival you’ve ever attended, you had no idea what he was talking about.

He shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.

“Drunk people grinding on strangers, people stage diving, fights — it’s a real party, but it can be pretty fun. What do you say? Wanna risk it by the stage?”

You lean forward towards him, chair wobbling from the weight and threatening to topple over if you leaned any further to the one side. He cautiously puts his hands up in case he needed to catch your haphazard form. You didn’t take any notice.

“Bitch. I. So. Do.”

Laughing at your enthusiasm, he stands up and offers you his hand.

“Well then, shall we?”

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

You head to one of the many stages scattered around the huge festival. A decently popular band called ‘Guys Not Dogs’ are playing. True to their name, they are, in fact, not dogs. Their music is actually really good, and soon enough both you and Hobi are dancing along with the crowd around you.

With a firm hand on your waist, he pulls you close to him, your back to his front. Your bodies grind against each other sensually as you sway to the music.

You’re pretty sure it’s a mix of the alcohol in your system and the loud vibration of the music you could feel shoot up your body from the soles of your feet, but you tilt your head back to lay it on his shoulder and look up at him with a need to suddenly kiss him.

His eyes are locked with yours as he reads the message you’re trying to send loud and clear, having his own hidden desire to kiss you again. You lock lips with him and he grips you tightly, your own hand raising to place it firmly on his cheek to push his head further down to deepen the kiss. Now, you’re both effectively making out in the crowd, not a care in the world. It’s extremely hot, and you can feel your heart beat pick up a bit.

Before either of you know it, you’ve stopped dancing completely in favor of kissing.

He slowly pulls away from you, a thin string of saliva connects your lips from the battle of tongues that ensued in your mouths, both of you too stubborn to let the other win, before it splits in half and your lips are fully disconnected. He smiles at you with his entire face.

After another song finishes, he turns to you, his hands on your hips tapping out a random beat as he asks you a question.

“I’m going to get us some drinks. Is there anything specific you’d like?”

“Wine cooler.” It was the first thing that came to mind, you just trying to get your answer out before the next song blasted through the speakers and left you deaf to his words.

“Okay, I’ll be right back!”

Soon as he runs off, the song starts and you cheer along with the crowd. You bob your head and sway your hips to the music, arms up in the air as you get lost in the vibe of the song.

Before long, someone comes up behind you and begins to dance with you. You let out a giddy laugh, and inwardly you’re impressed with how quick he was to return, you thinking it would take a lot longer.

You turn your body around with a compliment on your lips for Hobi, when it dies in your throat the instant you lock eyes with the person behind you.

Someone who definitely wasn’t him.

The guy who has come up to you sways and flashes you a goofy grin. You’ll admit, he was cute. But still, you felt awkward. And it doesn’t sit well with you knowing that he’s obviously very drunk already.

You tried to remedy the situation with a small, but albeit, friendly smile so as not to cause a scene.

“Uh, sorry? No. I—I’m waiting for someone.” Your tried to keep your tone light and friendly as you spoke loud enough for him to hear you over the loud bass.

“Huh?” He replies yelling loudly, a dumbfounded look on his face. “What do you mean?”

You take a step back as the spit that flies out of his mouth with his words land surreptitiously on your thoroughly disgusted face. He takes a step towards you, his legs wobbling. Within seconds he’s tripped over himself, knocking you right into the ground in his clumsy attempt to right himself.

You throw your hands up in front of your face to try and protect yourself as people still danced around you, only some of them aware that you are in a perfect trampling position. Your mind races as you try to figure out what to do, the alcohol in your system clouding your mind.

“Hey! What the fuck?!” You breathe a sigh of relief when you hear his very loud, very pissed off voice from somewhere above you. “Get away from her!”

You hear a loud ‘crack’, and then you’re violently jerked back up onto your feet. The sudden movement causing you to get lightheaded for a moment, before you fully regain your bearings and realize you’re not on your feet at all. Looking up into Hobi’s worried gaze, you come to the conclusion he’s carrying you bridal style. It’s not until his focus shifts from you to the ground, do you also look, and see the drunk guy who had just knocked you down cradling a bloody nose.

The neighboring crowd around you has stopped and created a circle to watch the chaos that has seemed to unfold, you could hear the murmuring and whispers as they try and piece together what exactly happened.

Apparently, it was even enough to make the actual band playing onstage pause their music, the lead singer’s voice suddenly booming through the speakers on it’s own, sounding slightly concerned, but mainly pissed off from being interrupted.

“Hey! What’s going on over there? Security!”

“You good to run?” Hobi questions you quickly, and you only nod your head.

Deeming it enough, he sets you back on the ground, and before you could straighten up completely, he’s grabbing your hand and running in a random direction, pushing through the crowd.

Only minutes later, once you are both safely away from the commotion of the stage and the crowd, does Hobi let go of your hand to fall on the ground in a sitting position catching his breath. His arms are dangling over his knees, and his head is tilted downward between them. You opt to still standing, but being hunched over with your hands on your knees, your own chest heaving from the physical exertion that your body wasn’t used too.

“You—Saved me?” You ask in between breaths, brows furrowed over the events you didn’t get to see, but could assume occurred.

Hobi let’s out a deep chuckle, his shoulders bouncing up and down in the process. He tilts his head back to look up at your standing form with a lopsided smile.

“Yeah, I guess. But, honestly? What was I supposed to do? You were in trouble.” His whole body may have been exhausted, but his voice still somehow remained both jovial and nonchalant, like he’s been through this kind of thing before with someone else and therefore wasn’t phased.

And maybe he has, but you were still extremely grateful for him being there in your time of need.

“Thank you, for getting me out of there.” You straightened back up with a small, but albet thankful smile, extending your hand out for him to grab in order to help him up off the ground. He takes it with a wide grin, standing back up on his feet in no time as you continue with your words of gratitude. “I was in a really bad spot after I got knocked to the ground. I’m glad you came. I could’ve really gotten hurt — but I’m okay, thanks to you.”

Hobi scratched the tip of his nose in embarrassment over your sincere words.

“I’m glad you’re alright. I really had no idea what happened. I just saw you on the ground with that guy standing over you and I thought he hit you.”

“He didn’t hit me, he was just drunk. I don’t think he meant to knock me on the ground at all. I was more worried about being trampled than anything though…” your voice trailed off at the end, your face becoming pale upon realizing exactly what could’ve happened, envisioning it in your head like a scene from a horror movie.

Hobi could read your facial expression and how the mood changed drastically in seconds, it didn’t take him long to pull you into his arms, his hands rubbing up and down your back soothingly.

“It’s okay now. I’m not going to leave you alone again, okay?” His breath fans your ear for a second, him pulling away shortly to check and make sure you were fine. When you didn’t give him any signs that you weren’t, he continued. “Come on, let’s just head back to camp for the night, okay?”

In all the ruckus, you didn’t notice how the sky that was once sky blue, was now a sea of orange and purple hues, the twinkling of stars beginning to appear in it’s wake.

And with that, you head away from the festival and back to his bus.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

“It’s getting pretty late, you know? You live far?”

“About an hour and a half, two hours if traffic is bad.”

“What?!” His expression was one of mild shock. Hands flailing around him in a comical fashion. “You can’t head home now! Why don’t you just camp out here with me?”

You knew his worry and offer came from a place of sincerity and innocence, but you still couldn’t stop the way your cheeks tinted at your own inner lewd and wishful thoughts.

When you didn’t answer right away, he became aware of your flushed look, and immediately back tracked in hopes of not sounding like a creep.

“I have a daybed you can take for the night if you’re uncomfortable? I have no problems sleeping on the floor, really.”

Stuck in your lewd thoughts, you became emboldened with your next words.

“I was thinking this was going to be more—,” your own hands made an appearance to gesture in between your bodies with a hidden message. “—erotic?”

Your entire body cringed at the use of the word, but you didn’t know how else to say it, suddenly feeling like you were back in your awkward college day encounters when you were still a virgin.

“Oh?” His brows are furrowed, not yet registering the extent of your reply.

“OH.” His eyes widen considerably, a semi flustered look appearing at putting the pieces together.

“Oh.” He attempted to play his previous response off in a more smooth and suave way.

“Yes.” His answer is short, but resolute, and you think he’s done, until he throws you for a loop. “What say—,” he trails off mysteriously. “We make things interesting? Want to play a game?”

“Okay, Jigsaw.” He lets out a loud laugh at your horror reference, it only fueling his desire as he gives you a sultry smirk.

“Would you rather — sexy edition.”

Your brows raise in response as you wave at him to further explain.

“If you have done what is asked, then you receive a sexual favor. If you haven’t done what is asked, you give the other a sexual favor. Deal?”

Your smirk matches his as you reply.

“Deal.”

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Both of you sit facing one another on his bed, now safe from the rowdy all nighter festival goers whose shouts and talking outside are muffled within the bus. You’re both only in your underwear.

As he asks the first question, the game begins.

“Okay, let me think. Never have I ever….been tied up in bed.”

You bite your lip in anticipation. You’ve done that.

“Guess you have to treat me.”

“Those are the rules.”

He feigns disappointment, but his voice says otherwise, eyes darkening in the lowlight of the bedroom as he shuffles on the bed to sit behind you to pull you close. His hot breath races past your ear as he makes open mouth kisses to the side of your neck.

In this position, your knees are bent as you lean against him. He taps the inside of the knee closest to him as encouragement to part them wider and give him more room and better access to your still clothed core. You oblige.

His hand strokes down your bare stomach until his fingertips are touching the hem of your lacy underwear. He gives you a moment to stop him if you wanted too, and after a few minutes when he doesn’t get any resistance on your part does he resume in his actions.

Sliding underneath the hem of the lacy material, he skims past your tufts of pubic hair that has him sucking in a sharp breath due to finding it extremely hot not being shaved, his fingertips travel further until they find the hood of your clit and teasingly rub against it in order to go to the main destination he has in mind.

You let out a low whimper at the light touch of his fingertips that trace your opening in teasing circles, him never fully sticking a finger in yet. Your whimper goes straight to his lower half and you can feel the bulge that’s starting to form on your lower back.

“Shit, baby. You’re this wet already?” He chuckled lowly, and you bite back the witty remark on your lips and replace it with a moan, him inserting his middle finger up to the knuckle in one swift movement. His finger pumps a few long strokes into your pussy, him taking them out to gather your slick and rub it on your now swollen clit with short and fast movements.

It’s not long before your toes begin to curl as he switches between sliding his finger into your pussy and rubbing your clit with expert precision. When you grab onto his forearms with a vice grip and your moans turn into short pants, he knows you’re close.

“Let go, baby. Come on. Cum for me.” His voice whispered encouragingly into your ear and you can’t hold it back any longer. Your hips rise off the bed in your lust filled haze and he keeps rubbing your clit at a brutal pace until you forcefully push his hand away from your over sensitive bud.

Your entire body slacks against his, chest heaving as you try and calm down your breathing. He coo’s into your ear with sweet words and praise as he rocks your bodies gently side to side, his own way of helping you through your post orgasm state. Your heart swells at his actions, but you try not to let it get to you too much, knowing this was all for a game, and it was now time for the next question.

“Is it time for me to give another one already?”

“It is indeed.” You reply breathlessly.

He doesn’t move from his position as he asks you another question.

“Okay. Never have I ever gotten off to erotica.” You can see his brows waggle from your peripheral and you let out a rather unladylike snort.

“Who reads erotica these days? And besides, reading and masturbating? That’s too many things at once!” Your voice is high, expression flabbergasted, as you thrust your arms out in front of you in emphasis on the sheer absurdity of it all.

He laughs, and you feel the rumble in his chest from it, your back still against his front. He knows he’s won this round.

“I don’t get it either, but—,” he trails off knowingly, letting your silence speak for itself as you purse your lips, not liking to lose any type of game.

You heave a feigned sigh of defeat and sit up straight to turn yourself around. Now facing him on your knees do you give him a look.

“Alright, alright. I got you.”

“You don’t have too—,” his words are cut off when you push him down into the bed by his shoulders so he’s laying on his back now.

You sensually crawl up his body to straddle his hips. Leaning down, you place a bruising kiss on his parted lips from the surprise of being shoved down into submission. Breaking the kiss, you trail down his body with open mouthed kisses until you get to the hem of his Tommy Hilfiger underwear.

Shoving your fingers underneath enough to grab a hold of the hem, do you then lift the hem up to release it without warning. He lets out a sharp hiss at the unexpected sting against his waist, but you know he enjoyed it, having an up close view of the obvious tent he was now sporting. He shoots you a look that you return with an innocent one, and while he’s distracted do you swiftly pull them down in one go, letting them fall off the bed carelessly, his hard erection springing free and hitting your stomach.

Again, without warning, you lean down and plant a chaste kiss to the tip of his engorged, pre-cum leaking tip before taking it fully past your lips, cheeks hallowing in the process. You begin to bob your head up and down his length, and what you couldn’t fit in, you used one of your hands instead to do quick, short strokes. The other hand finds purpose with gently fondling his balls.

You can feel his hips begin to buck up into your mouth, and you relax your throat to allow him to fully incase himself in your warm mouth. Saliva begins to drip down the sides of your mouth and your eyes begin to water from him hitting your gag reflex. He places a hand behind your head, grunting as he looks down to watch you with hooded eyes. You want to encourage him to let go the same way that he did with you, but knowing that you couldn’t in your current position, you decided to moan continuously around his throbbing shaft, letting the vibrations speak for you.

Small moans begin to escape his mouth accompanied by his heavy panting breaths.

“Fuck—Y/N—Baby, I’m close.” It’s not even moments later do his thrusts get sloppy and uneven as he releases his warm load into your awaiting mouth. Some dribbles past your lips at the sheer amount as you make sure to swallow the rest. You pull away from his now soft cock with a ‘pop’, fingers coming up to wipe the cum off your face only to place them in your mouth and lick them clean.

The sight alone makes his dick semi hard again. You chuckle in amusement, repositioning yourself to laying down next to him with a heavy sigh. He turns onto his side to face you with a mischievous glint in his eyes. You raise yours in wonder but don’t say anything.

“Okay. One more.” He lifts his pointer finger up in the air between your bodies. You nod subtly. “Never have I ever hooked up at a music festival.”

“Aren’t we currently doing that?” You ask confused.

“Well, look at that. You’re right. I guess it’s a tie then.” He shrugs one shoulder nonchalantly.

Your eyes narrow in suspicion.

“What does that mean?

“It means we both win.” He replies with a shit eating grin.

He quickly, but gently pushes you so you’re laying on your stomach, as he begins to trail kisses up your spine and to your neck. Your arch your back at his ministrations, effectively lifting your butt up in the air and sensually grinding your ass into his now fully hard again cock.

With a rustle of sheets, you feel the bed dip from him leaning over you to reach the little drawer built into the side of the bed. Shortly after, you hear him opening what you could only assume was a condom wrapper, his body weight shifting again as he slides it on before climbing on top of you.

His fingers trace down your spine as he whispers seductively against the shell of your ear, his finger having already hooked its way into your panties to shove the material far enough to the side to poke his cock head against your fluttering hole.

“Are you ready?”

“Yes.” You hiss at him impatiently.

With your consent, he sheathes himself into your constricting walls until his balls slap deliciously against your pulsating clit. Your hands are immediately gripping at his sheets in order to anchor yourself as your head falls sideways onto one of the pillows unceremoniously due to his relentless pace against you.

It takes only seconds until he has you a writhing, sobbing, blubbering mess underneath him.

“Fuck. You’re so tight. Holy shit.” He grinds out between a few sharp, hard, deep, thrusts.

You’re only response is a broken whimper as you focus on chasing your high, and he feels you begin thrusting your hips back into him. He reaches one hand underneath you to rub mercilessly against your heavily swollen bud that has you screaming his name as your walls catch his throbbing member in a vice grip, the spasms causing your slick to drip down your thighs and onto the sheets as you slump down into the mattress after your orgasm.

The only thing keeping your ass in the air is his bruising grip on your waist needed to chase his own final orgasm of the night. With one last hard thrust he stills, cock twitching inside of you as his cum fills up the condom with ease.

He gently lowers your exhausted body fully onto the mattress, pulling out of you to quickly tie the condom and throw it into the trash bin that sat near the side of the bed.

As he lays down next to your already half asleep form, he maneuvers you to lay on his chest, and only grabs the sheet to pull over your bodies due to the high heat both inside and outside of the bus.

Eyes closing, he follows you into dreamland, both of you blissfully unaware of the leaking condom that lay on the bottom of the trash bin from a hole the size of a pin needle. Nor would you ever notice, until it was too late.

And thus, came your third warning.

Two blazing pink lines.

2023 the Year of Chaos

Beginning today we stop overextending ourselves. We stop giving to situations and people that don't appreciate us. We become focused only on ourselves and our happiness and becoming the best versions of ourselves for ourselves-- for the collective. We are releasing the weight of the world off of our shoulders. Your higher vibration is the most needed at this time. Your vibration impacts the entire collective consciousness.

You need not focus on anything else, except your daily responsibilities. Because your vibration will have the biggest impact on the world--not your intellect, not your abilities, not your money, not your self sacrifice will have the biggest impact. Only your vibration will. We must remember that we cannot control temporary circumstances outside of ourselves but we can control ourselves, how we react and how we shift, how we want to create or manifest the future. In my 2023 forecast I said, that 2023 was going to be very chaotic but this does not mean you need to fear anything.

This is when the real New Year begins. You are going to see many confused, disillusioned people, brainwashed by the "dark forces", acting out of ego, waking up from the darkness coming to light. Mass awakenings. You can rely on the energy healers, spiritual lightworkers, witches, the new age spiritualists, the master manifesters, the light holders, the light warriors, astrologers, reiki masters, the monks, the shamans, the magicians, the seers, Earth Angels, psychics, the changemakers, the chosen ones, empaths, the enlightened ones ect. Any label you want to give us, we're all healers in different slices of personalities and ways and we're all connected whether you like it or not. Anyone that gives you a cool calm and collected vibe, is an obvious master, stable and grounded that seems to be confident that everything is going to be okay. They are the ones you can turn to and rely on when everything looks chaotic. Your energy of fear, pain, anxiety, unworthiness, scarcity, and victim mentality is creating blockages in your energy flow. The trauma, from your intense emotions that you cannot process gets stuck in different chakras, waiting to be released.

They will teach you how to break toxic cycles and patterns you've been stuck in. They are going to be teaching in chaos, being the eye in the storm. Pluto will help you break free from those toxic cycles that literally kept you in hell. Please do, and I highly recommend getting a psychic reading this year so that you can do some past life healing trauma,shadow work and advice on your next moves, or connecting with a loved one you've been avoiding. Pluto aka Hades, Pluto is moving back into Aquarius after 225 years. Society as a whole is going to change forever. Aquarius energy is out of the box and inventive. You are going to see more riots, more protests, more inventions and change, more angry change is needed, and Pluto is all about death and rebirth. So embrace the chaos, remember to keep a balanced steady routine daily, so your routine doesn't change, you stay the eye in the storm unbothered by the chaos around you and remember you create your reality as the God or Goddess of your entire Universe, because remember you are the entire Universe experiencing itself.

Remember the chaos creates positive change, it is for your benefit so relax, focus on what you want to create. You create the unknown from the now so there's nothing to fear if you create the unknown. Remember to not take any fear or anxiety as personally yours, release your burdens, give your problems to the Universe/God/Source to handle for you and enjoy your life because it's meant to be enjoyed especially if you've already suffered enough, ecstacy is yours for the taking. Be kind to yourself, your past self and future self are all doing the best they can. Get as much rest as you can. Welcome to the second coming. It is safe for your light to be seen. Relax, and breathe through the waves of the storm. Let your light guide your sight.

Fill the Joints with Chi

Taoist believe that the joints can store energy, like the bones and organs. When the joints are filled with chi, they operate more effectively and provide cushion between the bones. Tai chi is a wonderful exercise for improving the joints. If you don’t know Tai chi, it’s ok. Chi kung exercises are similar to tai chi but are shorter, easier to learn, and can be more focused . Thus, if we find a chi kung exercise that focuses on a specific part of our health, we can practice this for 30, 60, or 90 days and watch our health improve.

A simple chi kung exercise for the joints begins with the hands resting at the sides of the body. On the inhale, open all of the joints, starting with the toes, move up to the ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, elbows, wrists, fingers, and even the sternum and plates of the head. On the exhale, let the joints relax and the breath/energy from the inhale can rest into the joints. As we become more familiar with this technique, all the joints can open at once on the inhale and then relax at the same time on the exhale.

Message for 11th March ~*Rest*~

💫

You have become so absorbed in the goings on of everyday life that you have forgotten the importance of taking time out to rest. You may be feeling that there is simply not enough time to achieve everything you aim to achieve. Perhaps you feel as though time is running out. Know these feelings are simply an illusion. You have the power to achieve all you want to with ease, provided you stop, immersing yourself in material issues and fears.

💫

You're being asked to rest and detach yourself from everyday concerns. Learn to relax and life will be clearer. Everything falls into perspective when you reconnect with your spirit and all that exists inside your heart. Spirit lives beyond the restrictions of time and space. Your spirit is eternal; it has no fear and vibrates only to love.

💫

Rest – and allow love’s light to heal your fears and anxieties. Let love guide you – it will bring balance to your life. As your mind is cleared of all stress, anxiety and concern, you create the opening for your spirit to be felt and heard. You will then be able to communicate with your spirit, and reconnect with the truth and purpose of your life. Keep an open mind and heart.

💫

An idea will soon come to you, which will help you greatly. This idea stems from your spirit. It is a blessing from the Universe that will help bring balance and abundance into your life. The more you detach from everyday concerns the easier things will become. You will soon start to see your life from a higher perspective and you will find that you have adequate time for all in your life, including taking regular time out to rest.

💫

Summary: Kagome's power begins to wean, and she struggles to come to terms with the cause.

Read it on Ao3, Dokuga, and FFnet.

Inspiration: "If Our Love Is Wrong" by Callum Scott

Count

Kagome ducked, cursing as her arrow flew wide of its target. If not for Inuyasha's quick maneuvering, the boar youkai would've impaled her.

"Get your head in the game, K'gome!" he groused, resting Tessaiga on his shoulder. "I'm startin' to lose count of all the times I've had to save yer ass."

Kagome reminded herself that maiming her best friend would be more hassle than it was worth.

"Sorry," she said, picking up her arrows, "I've got a lot of my mind."

Inuyasha snorted. "Keepin' yerself alive is more important than anything the bastard has to offer."

A dark blush spilled onto Kagome's cheeks, but she flipped her hair over her shoulder. "He deserves a proper answer."

Patience

Patience had never been Kagome's strong point, and she had a feeling it wasn't Sesshoumaru's either, but she wasn't going to rush something as important as courting.

Especially with how well things were going.

The attraction was still new, fresh, her face breaking out into a bright smile every time he entered the village. Even when he was there for Rin, his youki would reach for her, a gentle caress to her senses as she waited her turn.

He'd been serious from the start, but Kagome had been wary, both for her sake and everyone else's. The Western Lord had persevered though, giving her time to come to terms with the fact that there wasn't an ulterior motive.

Sesshoumaru wanted her.

Control

"Yer control is slippin'."

"It is not." Kagome shot an arrow at him to prove her point, but just like the last, it flew wide; Inuyasha didn't even have to move to avoid it.

"What I tell ya? Yer head's gone to mush ever since—"

"Finish that sentence, and I will set you on fire."

Inuyasha sighed, then sheathed Tessaiga. "I'm not the only one who's noticed, K'gome. It's like you fell through the well all over again."

Kagome would've stomped her foot if she wasn't thinking the same thing. Her powers had been fluctuating to the point of being uncontrollable, and it was starting to affect her ability to keep people safe.

Ignite

"You are troubled."

A sigh escaped her lips, her shoulders slumping as Kagome threw a stone into the bubbling river. "Is it that obvious?"

"Only because you are trying so hard to conceal it." Sesshoumaru sat down beside her, and she leaned against him, taking comfort in his presence.

"Inuyasha thinks you're corrupting me."

A pale eyebrow rose. "You are the one who initiated—"

Kagome covered his mouth with both hands, a blush igniting her cheeks. "Not like that! We all know that a miko's power being tied to her purity is an old wives' tale." She felt him smirk a second before his tongue slid along her palm.

Embark

"We agreed to embark on this journey together, Kagome," he said once she'd released his mouth. "If you are having second thoughts—"

"No!" She shook her head vehemently. "No. I want this. I want you. I just…" She gazed at the river, willing it to give her guidance. Sesshoumaru's hand settled over hers, his steadfast support a balm to her weary soul.

If it was only temporary.

She was at a crossroads, the future bright and promising. And yet she still found herself hesitating, the past screaming as responsibility clawed at her back.

"Who am I if I can't protect people?"

Float

Her guilt continued to gnaw at her, tempering her reiki even during her deepest meditation. Normally, clearing her mind came easily, lifting the weight of duty from her shoulders and giving her the chance to relax.

But the shame of not being able to assist in the latest attack was a bitter pill to swallow, and Kagome flopped onto the grass, the clouds above seeming to taunt her as they floated by.

"Ye dwell too much, child. It clouds your judgement." Kaede didn't bother to sit down, her cane wobbling as she stepped closer.

"Easy for you to say," Kagome grumbled. "Kirara isn't nursing a sprained foot and a gauge in her side because of you."

Cast

"Perhaps not," the older miko lamented, "but I also know the kit would be worse for wear had ye not interfered."

It should've been an easy extermination, the hoard had barely been worth mentioning, which was why Kagome had tried to take them on herself, her need to prove herself outweighing any remaining common sense.

If Shippou hadn't been passing by on Kirara—

Shaking her head, she drew her knees up to her chin. "I should've been paying better attention. Been more prepared." Sesshoumaru would be disgusted with how much she'd had to rely on others, considering the amount of time he'd spent training her.

"Cast aside your doubt, child. The rest will follow."

Lift

Kagome lifted her head to the sky, Kaede's words lingering. The clouds continued to move, unaware of her plight, and she wondered if the gods had ever been conflicted in their choices.

She snorted. They probably had, then after making a mistake, had likely claimed it was part of their master plan.

What was her plan?

What did she want?

Youki slid up her spine, and she scrambled to her feet, running towards its owner as he welcomed her with open arms.

"I had thought to heal your wounds."

Kagome grabbed fistfuls of his hair, pulling him down to claim his mouth.

Ascend

Sesshoumaru returned the kiss with vigour, Kagome's heart ascending to new heights as he shuddered under her assault.

"I'm sorry," she whispered when they finally pulled back for air.

"Whatever for?"

She struggled to put it into words, trying to convey with her body what her mind could not as she pulled him closer.

This is what she wanted. He was what she wanted. And damn anything and anyone who stood in her way.

Including herself.

Going up on tiptoe, Kagome brushed her lips along his jawline, nipping at his skin as she got closer to his ear. "I love you."

Begin

Accepting her feelings for Sesshoumaru set in motion a slew of new beginnings that Kagome found herself unprepared for.

Jaken referring to her as 'Lady' being at the top of her list.

But it also brought things into perspective. No longer was she second-guessing herself when it came to her place in the pack. And once that thought became cemented in her mind, Kagome's reiki returned with a vengeance, each arrow meeting its mark.

Pride radiated off her intended as they moved in tandem, power colliding—combining—before decimating the youkai that threatened the peace of the Shiro.

Halt

"Ever planning on admitting you were wrong?"

Inuyasha halted in his movements. "I was right that it was the bastard's fault."

A pebble ricocheted off his shoulder. "It had nothing to do with demon corruption."

"Keh." He went back to sharpening his sword.

"Loving someone is only wrong if it hurts you."

"You sure it ain't doing that?" His subdued tone stopped her from throwing another pebble.

Kagome gave him a reassuring smile. "Absolutely not. I think I'm actually more powerful now."

Her friend sighed, then grabbed the hilt of Tessaiga, the weapon transforming in a flare of power. "Care to test it out?"

Grinning, Kagome jumped to her feet, not even bothering to grab her bow. "You're on."

[adhyatmikvikasmission]

Reiki.

What is Reiki ? Reiki is a spiritual practice method developed by Mikao Usui in 1922. It is a Japanese method of stress and healing, which is very similar to yoga. According to the belief, India is the real origin of Reiki. Thousands of years ago there was knowledge of touch therapy in India. Evidence of this has been found in Atharvaveda. This knowledge continued to exist in oral form through the Guru-Shishya tradition. Due to lack of this knowledge in writing, it gradually disappeared. Two and a half thousand years ago, Buddha taught this knowledge to his disciples so that while roaming in the forests at the time of country, they do not lack medical facilities and they can do their treatment. There is some description of it in Lord Buddha's book called 'Lotus Sutra'. From here it reached Japan via Tibet and China with monks. The work of rediscovering it in Japan was done by the Japanese saint Dr. Mikao Usui in his lifetime in 1869–1926. According to its ideology, energy flows only from living beings. Reiki experts believe that the invisible energy is called life energy or ki and is the life force of life. Experts say that "ki" is all around us and can be absorbed by the brain.

Exploring The Power of Physical And Spiritual Healing Through Reiki: Your Complete Guide

You live in a society where you always have too much to do. To recover from the daily stress and anxiety in your daily life routine, one of the solutions in the form of physical and spiritual healing is available for you. While traditional methods of healing are outdated, most people are looking for an alternative therapy to improve their health holistically. This detailed guide signifies the importance of psycho-spiritual healing, which is attributed to its capability to give you subconscious healing gifts and harmonize you on multiple levels, with Reiki being one of them.

The Role of Reiki in Spiritual Healing

Reiki, a technique to aid relaxation and stress management originally from Japan, is based on the idea of connecting our life force energy, which can heal. However, it is worth saying that the word “Reiki” means exactly “universal life energy,” thus introducing the spiritual essence of this practice. This energy is present in all human beings and its disturbance or obstruction can cause physical, mental, and spiritual disabilities.

Fundamentally, the starting point of Reiki is that the body can self-heal or recovers itself if it is provided with the most conducive conditions. Through employing Reiki spiritual healing techniques using hands-on and non-contact methods, Reiki tries to settle any energetic blockages, replenish your body’s energy balance, and stimulate your body in its natural healing process.

The Benefits of Reiki in Spiritual Healing

The benefits of Reiki are not limited to the physical body; rather, they cover the mind, emotions, and spiritual wellness. A lot of people have experienced that Reiki eases pain, boosts recovery from injuries or surgeries, and increases the immune system. Furthermore, its effects are not restrictive on the mental aspects of society. They spread to the control of stress, depression, anxiety, and trauma.

What distinguishes Reiki from the rest of the healing methods is its focus not just on the well-being of a person physically but on their mental and spiritual realm as well. Contrary to traditional medicine, which generally focuses on treating these aspects of the whole body individually, Reiki sees them as fundamental elements of the same whole.

The Reiki technique is of a different kind, as it does not just concentrate its attention on the physical symptoms of a person but also tries to root out the psycho-spiritual problems of a person. This makes the Reiki treatment a more holistic therapy with an acceptance of the role played by energy in the well-being of humans.

Conclusion

In a time where the speed of life keeps on becoming faster and the toils of existence create immense stress, it is clear that physical and spiritual recovery will remain indispensable through eternity. By adopting modern healing methods like Reiki, you get to channel the inexhaustible resources from the core of the universe and make these energies work towards your physical, mental and spiritual transformation. If you are looking to avail yourself of our unique and one-of-a-kind miracle healing services, contact us today at the Donna McGrath Foundation for more information. Enjoy the rest of your life with our expert healing services that will reduce all your mental stress, anxiety, and depression from the past, present, and probably the future.

A Memorable Vacation in the Latest Episode of Married to Medicine In this episode of Married to Medicine, the group gathers at Simone’s house to embark on a vacation to Hilton Head. However, Heavenly, Jackie, and Phaedra arrive late, with Toya joking that it must have taken them a long time to get their makeup perfect. Simone calls Heavenly to inquire about their delay and is informed that if Jackie and Curtis are not attending, Heavenly won't join them either. Jackie confirms that Curtis doesn't want to revisit past issues, but Cecil remains hopeful they will change their minds. Phaedra arrives just in time to leave with the rest of the group. As they begin the drive, the group starts with a couple of shots. Simone later reveals that Heavenly and Jackie won’t be joining them, leaving everyone puzzled about why Curtis is uncomfortable with the trip. Upon arrival, a private chef welcomes them with cocktails, and Phaedra humorously asks where the strong men are to carry her luggage. Eugene happily sits by the chef who is preparing a crab boil, while the others relax by the pool. Jackie and Curtis, accompanied by Heavenly and Dr. Damon, eventually arrive. There is a brief silence as the two couples join the group, but it quickly turns into hugs all around. Toya humorously states that they arrived just in time for their lesson on teaching the men to do what their wives want. Sweet Tea playfully demonstrates by trying to get Dr. G to fetch her a drink, to which he promptly declines. Toya expresses her happiness about everyone being present and appreciates that the group has agreed not to bring up Jackie and Curtis's relationship issues. Sweet Tea finds it hypocritical that Dr. G and Quad's problems were discussed in front of her and believes it's now Jackie's turn to face scrutiny. Jackie, however, confronts Sweet Tea and receives applause from the group for her response. Curtis follows suit, stating that if they continue to be the topic of conversation, they will leave. Simone reassures Jackie that the trip was not intended to dig into her relationship. Eugene wonders why the group doesn't trust them as a whole, and Jackie urges them not to be selfish with their decision. Sweet Tea yawns loudly, provoking Jackie to tell her to express her agitation freely if it helps her feel better. Sweet Tea responds with a rude comment, but Jackie promises to address the issue later. Dr. G comforts Sweet Tea, who complains about being treated unfairly due to the age gap between her and the group. Heavenly becomes upset that Simone chose Hilton Head despite knowing it made Jackie uncomfortable. A heated argument erupts between the two, attracting the attention of neighbors. Seeking calm, Jackie requests Phaedra's Reiki healing, and she prepares her flute and gong. The next day, Eugene showcases his culinary skills by making eggs for Toya, Alicia, and Kema. Dr. G yearns for the tension between Sweet Tea and the rest of the group to be resolved. Heavenly apologizes to Simone for her outburst and admits she had been dwelling in negativity. Although Simone accepts the apology, she is not ready to hug Heavenly just yet. Later on, the ladies enjoy a golf outing while the men attend a cooking class. During the cooking class, Kema, Curtis, and Damon share light-hearted jokes about their skills in the kitchen. The ladies admire an 80s-inspired golf outfit, and in a moment of vulnerability, Sweet Tea apologizes to Jackie for her earlier rudeness. However, when Sweet Tea informs Heavenly that Jackie won't forgive her, Toya advises her to pray. Jackie dismisses the apology, believing it was made solely to appease Sweet Tea's conscience. This vacation episode of Married to Medicine certainly left viewers on the edge of their seats, eager to find out what will happen next.
