" No drained out issues
" There are no issues of birds too

" The feeling is for 25 years I tolerated that abuse because I wanted that connection. Puppet or a slave, the puppet has the control or connections, it's through the connections the puppet moves. I'm not going to have that anymore.

" But in this case….
" You see the sensitivity
" You see the ability to feel hurt
" The ability to adapt
" The ease with which she gives opposites so this is a plant kingdom case
" But which family?
" You see certain sensations like caught, stiff,stuck etc so. looks like the Anacardaciae family. Probably - Rhus Tox.

" Significance of Doodles
" The doodles are encouraged at appropriate parts of the case
" It is like a by-pass

" Conifer: Connection/disconnection, fragile, delicate, scar tissue that can snap, tree limb that can snap anytime, the need to stay in one place and freeze, one wrong move and paralyzed for life.

" Brittle and its synonyms
" The sensation 'brittle' is prominent in the remedies from the Conifer family
" Some synonyms of brittle are-
" Fragile
" Broken
" Pieces
" These make the picture of the family complete
" Cut off and Disconnected
" At a deeper level, this sensation can be understood as isolation and emptiness
" The sensations emptiness, brittleness and lack of connection are linked to each other
" The feeling of brittleness and fragility is due to the inner sensation of emptiness
" Things which are brittle crumble into pieces
" Once it breaks and crumbles the connection is lost

" Main Sensation-like an egg shell
" Emptiness
" Brittleness
" Separation
" Cut-off
" The picture that comes in mind is of an egg shell
" When the egg is empty the shell is fragile and brittle
" Once it is broken the continuity is lost and it crumbles to pieces-a break in the whole
" Differentiation
" Scrophuliaraceae
" Scrophuliaraceae-
" The sensation of dissociation has a subtle difference-
" When two separate things are associated and then they come apart and the bond is broken
" The bond is made and then torn loose
" The bond is between two separate entities joining or adhering together
" So the rubrics would have the sensation of adhesion and tearing loose
" Malvales
" Malvales
" Main sensation is of attachment and detachment
" Attachment is two entities coming together
" One becoming part of the other
" Like a mother and her new born
" Leguminoseae
" Leguminoseae-Pea family
" The pods have different components together
" They need to separate in order to spread
" The pods split open along the sutures and the seeds scatter

" Feeling that the parts could separate and fall to pieces
" There is an external factor splitting them up
" Arbutus tree-Ericaceae
" Also known as the strawberry tree or the evergreens

" Its bark peels off very easily
" While talking of this tree what comes up is delicate again taking us to the Conifer family

" E mail FU 1 after 2 months
" I was sleeping really well after the remedy
" My weekly workouts have been more geared towards stretching and opening since the remedy, I think that's been a bonus.
" My daughter broke her collarbone, a bit of a stress. 4-5 marriage breakdowns in families that we know, daughter's friend. Internalizing some stress.
" I haven't felt anything bad or extreme, it's been positive.

" Range of movement with your neck?
" It's been fine. I carry my stress there. There is so much scar tissue. I measure it on range of motion and riding my bike. Going on bike it's awkward if you have a tight neck, and it was great, I went on and didn't come off….It's a solid 8/10.
" What were you before?
" The lousy time was 3 or 4 out of 10. Then it would get up to maybe a 7 or 8 if I've had a lot of treatments but probably was surviving on 5 or 6. I have improved. Also no low back. The core and being able to sleep on my stomach, that part is doing well.

" You said before you felt paralyzed?
" Yeah when it was acute, 3/10.
" That is gone?
" Yeah. Even when I've pushed or compromised myself. No disc injuries. I play more conservatively now. I'm not diving and rolling and doing dumb things.
" How are your knees?
" 8/10. Good. Maybe never a 10 again.

" Is there anything you'd like to see improve still?
" I feel pretty good from the health perspective. I don't wish for a 10/10 on my neck, an 8/10 is great.
" It's been a really positive experience.
" Plan - wait

" FU after 6 months
" I've been well.
" I didn't take notes, was in summer mode.
" My husband would like to pass on some things. He thinks there's been a calming of my personality. He would say I've had lesser lows on the emotional roller coaster. Taken away that edge.

" That and posture wise, once I went to chiro, the back and neck tension is in good position. That's significant and positive.
" Before you said the neck was 8/10 better.
" It's probably stayed the same. Certainly no worse. A good 8 out of 10. I played ultimate Frisbee all summer long. There's not a lot of cushioning by the end of summer. I sailed through that though. My vertebrae feels loose, I have movement. When it's tight I feel like it's blocked. I don't have the blocked feeling anywhere.

" We will give you some of the remedy to have on hand in case of injury (Sabina 30c) , as recommended by Sunil.

" FU after 1 year
" How have you been?
" Pretty good.
" What about your knees?
" Great. Physically no problems.
" Not playing Frisbee?
" No. I run home from work one day a week. Get one training day in and one other workout. Three things a week for myself. Wish it was more.


" How are you coping with your emotions?
" I'm more mature about it. It passes faster than getting in a rut and staying there longer. Found the solution, drive on. I feel rested, kids let me sleep in. I've been getting 5-6 hours sleep.
" Plan- Wait
