Check out the article, “Nothing Can Stop the Zebra” on Smithsonian.com

“Bradley can’t say for sure whether the zebras are benefiting from the fence, the return of the river, the recent higher rainfall or some combination of all three, but he says the health of the population means that, “given the chance, animals will often be able to respond to cycles of good and bad years and bounce back.”Happy Friday everyone!

Mar 02 Have you ever wondered…

What noise a zebra makes? Probably not but if so, you can listen here. Scroll down on the page, and It’s on the left (towards the bottom) under “Sound Byte.”

Can you tell I’ve been on a couch for a couple days? Can you tell I’m getting a tad bit bored? I’m still really sore and stiff but I am definitely moving around better today. Good thing it’s back to therapy tomorrow.

Zebra Power!

Congeatulations!!!
I have two questions:
1. You’re standing while packing those baskets, do you force yourself to stand at times like that when you could sit?

2. Great zebra neck pillow I’ve been looking for more supports and pillows, do you have any recommendations? I need a better pillow behind my neck when I’m sitting in my recliner and probably lumbar support and something for my tailbone on hard chairs. There’s so many to choose from, it’s hard to know.

Great to here, Katie! I wish I could have such an in depth dr appointment, I haven’t been on the ER for a while but I can’t work and my exercise is moderate. But I keep working, I think my muscle problems from EDS have a lot to do with that. Right now I’m researching a lot of ways to ease those problems, trying to find braces, pillows, and supports etc. I don’t have a dr helping me so its trial and error but I’m trying my
best, I’ve been doing craniosacral therapy weekly and hopefully that’ll help my muscles activate and all of my pain. I think CST falls under OMM? I’ve been going for about two months and we’ve finally seeing inklings of progress. My csf flow is slow but its not getting caught on hang ups anymore! Unfortunately some muscles release & go back to back every week, hello, si joint, she said its very hypertonic .

How do you stay occupied when you are feeling your worst?
