In addition to the new challenges it presents, the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has exacerbated a range of pre-existing social problems. While these issues affect everyone to a degree, and some groups significantly more than others, one key demographic is often left out of the conversation: children.

Having trouble sleeping? Feeling the stress? This trance may make it better.
I had a pleasant surprise this morning from a fellow Tist and friend who shared with me a recording of one of my group sessions I did years ago. The recording I am going to share with you all was, I'm told, was recorded at Mountain Light Sanctuary in the North Carolina mountains. It is a peaceful and inclusive place that gave us freedom to explore trance, nature, and each other. If you have ever had the experience of trying to remember what you said at a party fifteen or so years ago you'll understand my experience listening to myself here. I kind of remember that eight or so people were laying on mats as I began and then about forty minutes in another wave of people came to lay down with their mats. This recording was recorded on cassette tape and happily digitized. It is about one hour long and the last ten seconds had to be recorded again later. You can hear the sound change and I hear the smile in my voice when I say, "at the sound of the click... you'll wake up." That was the end of recording time on one side of the cassette.

Alternative Treatments for Chronic Pain: 5 Options to Consider
1. CBD Oil What exactly is CBD oil, an increasingly popular remedy? CBD, which stands for cannabidiol, is one of the cannabinoids found in cannabis plants. Although there is still research to be done on the medical uses of CBD, preliminary evidence suggests that there are many potential benefits of CBD. CBD products, such as tinctures, are thought to be effective in reducing pain when applied topically. Some researchers believe that CBD interacts with receptors in a person's immune system and brain, which creates pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effects.

Why My Routines are Important to Me
My counselor always talks to me about the things I can control. That is the foundation of trauma healing. I am building my own confidence and discovering my own self-worth through the things that I can control in my life. It is through that confidence that I can manage the moments that I can't.

The Science of Burnout
Fatigue. Fuzziness. Irritability. Exhaustion. Existential dread. These are all symptoms of burnout, an insidious condition borne of our society’s constant need to go-go-go. No matter your profession or area of study, burnout is the inevitable consequence of working too hard. But it’s more than that. It’s a physiological and mental condition that can cause lasting harm — and even if you don’t work too hard, you might come down with a case of burnout.

A New Meaning of “Clean”
There’s no other way to say it. COVID-19 is scary. Unquestionably, one of the most frightening factors of the coronavirus is its invisible transference across people and surfaces that seem clean. Taking care to be especially clean provides different challenges and costs for different Americans, but almost everyone has changed their cleaning habits in some ways.

The Four of swords up right- To me the four of swords in the upright position, always indicates rest. This is a rest of the body, and the mind, what self care is all about. In most traditional decks this card has a man dressed as a knight either laying down at his own wake, or sick in bed. But in the witches tarot deck this card has a young woman standing with one sword while the other three are against the wall in the up right position and in her right hand and a few wands that are just branches. To me while the traditional meaning of rest, repose, and relaxation is here and is still being indicated that is what we need after the last week and weekend we have had. This card can also indicate a much needed break that is only temporary the purpose of the break is to bring forth healing.
