No I didn’t miss spell for once! This phrase has been going around in my head for a while so I looked it up, and although we usually associate alms with some sort of charity help for people who need it the word ‘alms’ evidently comes from the old Greek word ‘eleemosyne’ which means compassion …
Wrong but partly true, my brain is in my head, which may surprise some of you who know me! So in that sense amygdala/insula conditions are in our heads. But they also are in our bodies. Separating the head and body really doesn’t make sense and is definitely not to be tried at home, folks. …

I have remained a member of the Facebook group because it motivates …

Coming Up For AIR This phrase stuck in my mind after Ashok used the acronym AIR for Amygdala Insula Retraining. Which made me start musing about coming up for AIR. When I was younger I used to do a lot of swimming: my preferred style was breaststroke or butterfly stroke. I also loved swimming underwater …
Hope’s Metamorphosis: An Inspiring Miracle This is a close photographic look at a Monarch Chrysalis developing, and finally emerging, as a beautiful butterfly! It is also a bit of a meditation, or reflection: a comparison of the process of insect metamorphosis to the process of healing through chronic illness. Included with the photos are some …
