Hi Valerie.  [I met Valerie in Playback theater class; she was my teacher.  Many months after class ended, I purchased a BEMER from her.]

Yesterday was an amazingly restful and restorative day.  I spent most of it in bed—not because of “weakness,” but because I feel myself being “called in” to restore.  I SLEPT 9 HOURS LAST NIGHT!!!  It has been a while since I have slept more than 5 or 6 hours.  The BEMER treatments are responsible for the recent improvement in the quality of my sleep.

I am probably going to lie low again today.  I have been moving in high gear for over six weeks.  Today I feel myself disconnecting from whatever higher powers were energizing me because I no longer need to move at an accelerated rate.  It feels safe for my system and body to settle.

During these times of high stress, my metabolism also kicks into high gear.  In these states, I like to say that my “furnace” is burning strong.  That can become problematic for me, as I lose weight very quickly in these states.  Right now, I am waiting for the furnace to die down so I can gain back some of the weight I lost and stabilize my system.

It’s difficult to imagine how much work it is right now to eat enough just to keep from losing more weight.  Yesterday I ate a 12-inch pepperoni pizza, three cups of pasta with meatballs, and six cups of green veggie juice, and still I woke up in the middle of the night hungry, and didn’t gain weight.

The furnace goes on every time I have to do intense psychic work.  In the past I could always gain the weight back in a day or two, but I never lost this much weight and the furnace has never been on for this long before—usually never more than a day or two.  This time it was on for a number of weeks, and my weight was already lower than usual from trying to follow all the dietary suggestions I have been getting from my numerous nutritional consultations . . .

SO, that is my update this morning.  I think the best I can do right now is be kind and patient with myself as I continue this transition of settling.

Thank you for your support,

Laura
