First, you may need to acquaint yourself with this fact. Shiatsu is an old form of Japanese therapy. It uses pressure on the finger and thumbs to promote the flow of positive energy to the body. Using anatomical plus physiological theories, Shiatsu has evolved through the years with various Western principles of anatomy and physiology.

In choosing massage chairs, choose the unit that can accommodate wider individuals. Normally units can adjust their space from 2 to 4 inches. Buy massage chairs that can adjust the massage function to a specific area of the back. Likewise, choose from the speed options in the massage chair.

What’s more, Shiatsu massaging chairs are manufactured out of good quality material. Most are leather upholstered, which is normally the most expensive. There is also synthetic leather upholstering which is proven to be more durable, or vinyl upholstering which is not the most stylish but is a lot easier to maintain.

Shiatsu massage chairs are among the various types of massage chairs now prevalent in the market. Most of these massage chairs are power assisted.

How do you define a “perfect” relationship?

  • Posted on July 2, 2009 at 7:15 am

Couples will admit that it takes conscious effort to nurture a healthy relationship. During those first exciting stages of dating, everyone is on their best behaviors. It can be hard to find fault with one another. Everything feels perfect.

Those minor character flaws may be perceived as endearing or quirky in the beginning. Six months later, they can be seen as perpetually annoying habits or unbearable irritants. Either way, nothing’s perfect and that’s what makes it “perfect”… (I know…it’s a paradox. But life itself is one big paradox – if you haven’t already noticed).

My point is this: In order to realize ‘perfection,’ you must first experience imperfection. It’s the same with saying you cannot know ‘happy’ if you’ve never known ‘sadness.’ One side of the equation cannot exist without the other. That’s the paradox of life!

So don’t get too caught up trying to define a “perfect relationship” or compare your relationship with others to get some sort of validation. No two couples are the same. What works best in your relationship may not necessarily work well for another couple.

So remember: Perfect is nothing but a word to describe what appeals to you most. We say it’s perfect when things go our way. We say it’s perfect when two people come together happily. So you see, it’s just a word associated with being content.

Simply put: If you’re in a relationship that puts you in a good state of mind, then, you are in a ‘perfect’ relationship. And if you’re still looking for that ‘perfect’ person, keep in mind they don’t need to be perfect in all that they do, just as long as they’re a perfect fit for you.

How to right a love letter

  • Posted on July 1, 2009 at 7:57 pm

If You Are Already Lovers

1. Tell your lover, in detail, what you want to do to them
2. Remind your lover, in detail, what the two of you did the last time you were in bed
3. Describe your lover’s body like you just saw it for the very first time
4. Talk about how hard/wet/frustrated you are writing this letter

If You Are Not Yet Lovers, but More Than Acquaintances

1. Make an intimate observation
2. Tell a secret about yourself
3. Talk about how hard/wet/frustrated you are writing this fucking letter
4. Don’t chicken out! Send it

The Three Best Love Letters I Ever Got

I got out all these letters and read them again before I wrote them down. It occurred to me that all of them have elements of frustrated longing, and sadness–that was the tragic part and the hot part all at the same time.

1. My 18 year old boyfriend was in boot camp. He sent me a piece of paper with nothing on it but his name, a heart, and his dried semen crinkling up the page.
2. My married lover had just signed a new “relationship contract” with his wife, promising to end their non-monogamous open agreement, and to never see me or touch me again. He wrote me a letter about how every day at work and all night, all he could do was think about me and my pussy and how he was going to go crazy if he couldn’t fuck me again.
3. My girlfriend left the country and a trail of tears behind her. A year later, on my birthday, which she had never remembered before, I got a postcard from her, in Spanish. I nearly tore my dictionary apart trying to translate it. Half way through I realized, it wasn’t her words, it was Roy Orbison:

“In dreams I talk with you
In dreams you’re mine
All of the time with you
Ever in dreams, in dreams”

Grief ~ a way to remember that feels good

  • Posted on July 1, 2009 at 6:41 pm

It was the 2nd anniversary of my mother’s passing and who knows what prompted me to write this, other than to pass on some thoughts. (Or maybe just some personal ramblings)

There’s a line in a song
‘ you left me here, to remind me of you’ and that to me is a comfort
~ as long as I am here, so will she.

and hopefully I can display those wonderful qualities she taught me by the way she was and the way she still is within me.

We don’t have to be sad, angry or alone when we remember those who have left us ~ I’m not ~ I miss her and speak to her most days and listen. Not just with my ears but with an awareness and I seem to understand.
But how can you remember in a way that makes you feel ok?

I feel I am lucky to have found NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) way back when I did. It has taught me to know I can experience memories how I want to experience them. I can remember times which before would bring on a negative emotion such as anger, sadness, guilt etc. but now they are just something that happened in my past and are void of those old feelings. Just as importantly I can re-experience the feelings of any good memory, in my mind I am there again and even better that that if I want I can magnify those good feelings and take them with me into my present-my now. In our trainings (my sons’ and mine) and my therapy work it’s great to see others find how much fun you can have learning and doing this and how it truly transforms their future.

Any way, back to that line of the song and one of the simple ways to remember that special someone.

This is what I do.
I think of a good time(s) with her and see it as if I’m looking through my own eyes.
I’m there again, seeing what I saw, hearing what I heard and I feel the good feelings I had and every good memory is the same way. I make it that way because that’s how I want it to be.

If any memory isn’t of a good time, I see it differently. I see myself in the memory, (as if it’s a movie with me in it) over there and I make it smaller and darker, I make it still and move it away from me ~ any not so good feeling just diminish

I also have noticed that a side effect of seeing, hearing and feeling those good memories is that you notice even more good things about that person. Things that you see, maybe a book they read or a photograph brings even more good feelings and sometimes a feeling of gratefulness that you had that person in your life. Now I can talk about my mother (and to her) with nothing other than love and good feelings – no tears just joy.
This is not the only way but a sure way to remember what you want, how you want to and it’s good to remember because……………..

‘ you left me here, to remind me of you’

Enjoy your every heart beat
