Bodytherapy & Life Coaching

Posted On Oct 31 2022 by

The West Seattle Bridge has reopened, and I am back in the office on Saturdays. Annie Lindberg runs the space now and has revamped and transformed it.  It’s gorgeous and feels good.  I think you’ll like it too. I’m thinking there has been 40 years of good healing work done in that blessed office —  A beautiful build up of good energy.  (An auravedic healing center was there before Morris and me.)     Let me know if you would like to schedule a Bodytherapy/Cranialsacral time with me.  I have openings from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM.

Move Out of Stress into Heal and Restore

Posted On Oct 6 2021 by

You are aware of how stress affects you.  It’s likely worse than you think.  That’s because you have spent most of your life, maybe all of it in a stressed out state rarely returning to peace.  Good news:  you can do something about it.  You can shift out of stress into the heal-restore state of health and reside there. Before I tell you how to get out of the stress hole, I’ll talk about some simple neurology.  Or if you like to eat dessert first scroll down to the methods below. Some Simple Neurology You have two nervous systems: The …


Update for My Private Practice

Posted On Jan 9 2021 by

It’s been 10 months since I closed my office in March.  Here’s what I’m thinking about resuming my hands-on bodywork portion of my practice. I don’t feel adequate in keeping people safe by doing the intimate touching that cranial sacral work entails.   There are protocols, of course, but I’m not skilled in them and don’t feel I am likely to gain the skills.  So, I won’t be doing bodywork until we’re all vaccinated and not needing to wear masks.  June? Two Other Issues I closed my office, so I don’t have a place to practice.  My friend Annie Lindberg, who …


How to Make Room for Self Care

Posted On Dec 29 2020 by

“I can’t believe it took me so long (during the pandemic) to start painting.” A number of my life coaching clients have the same observation about aspects of their life.  It takes time to bring a new self care practice into your life, to create a new habit.  Here are some observations and tips so that you can improve your life. First: Be kind to yourself if it takes more time than you think it should.  It just does.  Keep at it.  Persist. As I reported in a recent post, I got a piano.  Am I playing it?  Yes.  It’s …


The Best Secret for Healing Your Own Body

Posted On Sep 14 2020 by

When my neck hurts and the nerves in my hand get squished and tingle, this is what I do and what I tell my favorite clients. When the folks originally built the internet, they wanted an easier freer way for scientists to share information.  We got lots of refuse, but we did get some amazing sharing amongst healers and other scientists.  When you have a health question, you can Google. My friend, Dr. Michael Woo, suggested the way to get safe, reliable information instead of risky junk is to ask Google to only look at sites that have the .edu …

Celebrate Women – The World Cup and the Spotlight on Women

Posted On Jul 12 2019 by

One billion viewers watched the World Cup.  One billion.  Can we still discount woman? Turns out we can. The article, So the President F*cking Hates My Girlfriend by Sue Bird, inspires me and warms my heart. After saying she would never write again… She starts her article with – I remember telling my editor here something like, “It would take the President of the United States going on a hate-filled Twitter spree trolling my girlfriend while she was putting American soccer, women’s sports, equal pay, gay pride and TRUE LOVE on her back, all at once, scoring two majestic goals …


Free Stress Buster Tool – Guided Imagery

Posted On Apr 25 2019 by

I have a collection of stressors, maybe you do too?  Slowly but surely mine were killing me.  Literally.  I used to deprecate guided imagery as being too airy fairy for me.  Give me real Zen meditation or Taiji.  Now, I love guided imagery.  I’d love all my family and clients to do it. As you may know, I have many self-care strategies, and have used them for decades.  I employ taiji, meditation, walking, exploring in nature, weight training with kettlebells, regular therapy, Zentangles and drawing.   I recommend all of those, but for me with the challenges and demands of …

Falling Hurts – You Don’t Have to Do It

Posted On Jun 21 2017 by

This blew me away – young people slip and stumble as often as older people do.  But… But they don’t fall as often.  Because they have enough strength to catch themselves, they don’t hit the ground.  Surely, you remember that. You can imagine the outcome of older folks falling and hitting the pavement or down a flight of stairs.  The consequences for older people can be horrible and fatal. Please, develop the strength and balance to catch yourself. These days, you can find coaching suggestions all over the internet, in many physical therapy offices, yoga studios, Taiji classes, and senior …


Eating Less and Exercising More Doesn’t Work

Posted On Apr 25 2017 by

You know the recipe, to lose weight just eat less and exercise more.  It just makes sense.  But if you’ve tried to lose weight, most likely this hasn’t worked for you.  And it doesn’t work for anyone you know.  Quit it. First, exercise benefits you in multiple ways – especially strength training so keep doing it or consider adding it at some time. Second, it’s how you eat and what you eat that makes the difference.  As a person who has been dealing with my weight, fat, for my entire life, I notice I’m an addict.  Not a food addict, …


Am I A Compulsive Overeater? No. Am I A Sugar Addict? Yep.

Posted On Mar 26 2017 by

I’m in week nine of not eating any sugar or it’s henchmen – flour.  Turns out I’m addicted to these processed foods.  In the last nine weeks, I haven’t overeaten.  I haven’t been hung-over from eating too much sugar.  I feel good – energized and clear. But the big one, I haven’t felt any shame from being out of control with food.  Not eating sugar or flour, means no craving and no out of control  brain chemistry. What got me started was the Bright Line Eating program.  The name comes from the idea of drawing a bright line around certain …


Take the QUIZ: Are you addicted to food?

Posted On Feb 3 2017 by

I am a recovering food addict.  The addiction has caused endless problems.  Shame is at the top of the list. Susan’s solutions are working for me.  They might work for you and for others you love.  Pass all the information from Susan on to them if they seem open or ready, otherwise it can be shaming.  Be kind…   Back in 2013, Forbes revealed scientific research that showed Oreos were more addictive than cocaine or heroin. Yep, it may be easier to kick a cocaine addiction than it is to let go of those double-stuffed sugar-bombs. But it doesn’t stop …


The “2-Minute Trick” that triples your odds of eating healthy…

Posted On Feb 2 2017 by

Here’s another goody from Susan: Please pass these on to those that have trouble managing their foods or losing weight/fat. Nearly everyone is trying to eat healthier or to lose weight, and let’s be honest—we could probably all stand to be more mindful about the food we put in our mouths. Research shows that our environment can trigger us to either succeed or fail in nearly all of our endeavors. For example, if you have something you need to remember to bring with you when you leave the house tomorrow—let’s say it’s your dry cleaning—you might leave it by the …

  This comes from my friends at Bright Line Eating – I like their stuff and am passing it on to you.  It’s good stuff and I trust them and the material. Nobody goes on a major expedition without the right tools. If you’re going to climb Mount Everest, the first thing you have to find out is what kind of gear to bring. If you want to become a golfer, you need to get the right equipment. Similarly, losing weight is a major endeavor, and you need the right tools.

Self-Care Secret Revealed

Most of our health and happiness lies in our hands.  Self-care strategies let us take matters into those hands. As a therapist, I recommend homework to clients that enables them to take care of themselves between sessions. I, too, want great self care tools to take care of myself. I have started to recommend YouTube videos for myself and for clients.  I don’t just use any video, but specific ones that show the Feldenkrais Method.

Winter Is Coming – Get a Neck Gator

Posted On Nov 3 2016 by

Every spring, I urge people to go outside and exercise.  As a holistic therapist, that’s my job.  Next, I tell them, even while spring explodes, October is coming.  Winter is coming.  Get your mind right, do not be lulled into lassitude by the lovely weather, prepare. The acupuncturists and my Taiji teacher have this aphorism – “Keep the vile and pernicious winds from your neck.” If I can keep my neck warm, I’m a happy guy.  I think I could go out in the cold rain in a tee shirt if my neck was warm.

Assassins and the Buddha

Posted On Jan 6 2013 by

That’s right, assassins and the Buddha.  They kept me company on this sabbatical while I recovered from an amazing flu.  The flu sent me to the ER.  An IV of Electrolytes, a check up, reassurance then home.  The whole thing from onset of symptoms to home in bed was over in three or four hours.  Woof.  I took walks, rested and read – The Way of Shadows (The Night Angel Trilogy) by Brent Weeks.  “For Durzo Blint, assassination is an art-and he is the city’s most accomplished artist…”  What more could you ask for?  Well, you could ask for Old Path …

One of my beloved, teachers showed me this article –  How The Karate Kid Ruined The Modern World.  I recommend that you read David Wong’s article all the way through.    Here’s why…  You’ve been sold a bill of goods.  A lie.  This lie leads to shame in a big way.  And it can ruin your life.  You know what I’m talking about; the main character is very bad at something, then there is a sequence in the middle of the film set to upbeat music that shows him practicing. When it’s done, he’s an expert. All of it comes …


Magic Potions for Handling Fear

Posted On Jul 6 2012 by

I wrote this for The New Spirit Journal. It’s an excerpt from the current book I’m working on – How to Overcome Fear and Stop Worrying.  You can see their posting –  http://bit.ly/LTcNP1.

He rendered flowers he found in his countryside into effective remedies. Now called the Bach Flower Remedies, I call them magic potions. I have used them to good effect with my family, clients, and myself for decades, sometimes with astounding results. They can make a …
