Living in the NOW

I am going to write to make me feel better about my situation in life right now.

 

My mother is dying. Dying from cancer. Seems so unfair and it’s hard to believe that she is really leaving this early. She just retired last year and spend all her time retiring fighting cancer. I don’t like the term “fighting cancer” either. It’s a hard case no matter what, because we never know where it came from or started, it’s only a theory.

 

The memory of her comes out, all the time we spend together, which seems only a little bit. She always worked so hard, a career woman, achieving the impossible in men’s society. Women shouldn’t have to work as hard as men, because our body is build different. Women gives birth to children and we are tough, but in different way than a man. We just function differently, but my mom fight hard to become a professor in her department all throughout her career.

 

It’s not fair.

 

It’s not fair that she has to go so early, nobody expected this happen. She is the youngest of all the grandparents. This feeling inside of me feels like a rage. Rage that radiates to all the people who gave my mother a hard time, insulted her, and brought stress. Only thing that matter at this point though, she lived hard and strong, still protecting us and showed me the big picture of life. She taught me how to feel connected with patients, how to listen and speak with patients, and how to listen with heart.

 

My mother was a veterinarian specialized in feline cancer, diagnosing cancer in cat. She also specialized in doctor-patient communication towards in her late career, which I was totally involved in her training in my young age, going to seminars, study group at the university, and reading all her materials. I am nothing without her. I am a byproduct of my parents and their hard work. I moved across from Tokyo to Texas when I was 14 years old. Of course there are many mixed feeling about this, but overall I turned alright. There were many life events and drama along the way, but I survived.

 

I will be sharing my most inner thoughts here as I go through this life event, because I need this output. Please feel free of sharing your experience and thoughts as well along the way. Thank you for being here.

 

I am happy you are here.

 

I am not sharing this material in Japanese yet. The culture is so different and I don’t want to spread the news in Japanese just yet.

 

When I pray for mom, I can feel her spirit, my spirit, and my grandma’s spirit. Is this mean that through our body, we carry our ancestor’s spirit within us? When I am cooking or doing crafts, I often think about my grandmother, and I feel at home in my heart. I can feel her. To feel your ancestor that live through your DNA, there are some moments or act that reminds you of them, which then leads you to remembering where you come from.

 

Following your feeling is your inner instinct, the gut feeling, is super important skill. We all need to master it. Children have them naturally, but as we “grow” we lose it. Bring back that muscle and start sensing your inner heart. Listen to your body, because it’s trying to communicate with you all the time.

 

As a medicine woman, I speak to my mother’s cancer, and ask to stop growing.

 

“Cancer, as you grow, you are killing your host, then you’ll die too.”

 

 

 

I pray and pray and pray

Stop growing, you are big enough

Move a little so you are not blocking her

Please Dear Cancer, shrink a little

Stop growing, you are big enough

I pray and pray and pray

 

 

 

Love, Love, Love to the World~

My Dream 夢

Where I come from…

 

Experience from the childhood is so big in life. I finally realized the importance of basic skills and the freedom of growing up. The gap between Trump supporters and generation X is huge right now. The gap is so big it seems unreal sometimes. How could this be possible? I can only assume that we have evolved and were living in revolutionary society of our own, until now… back firing at all of us. Try to kill our hearts, our hearts of freedom, and love to all humanity.

 

We were pretty much blinded by the racism, we were brought up in melting pot, and we were happy.

 

Only thing I will do is keeping on doing what I do best. Hands on healing to one person at a time, teach individual of their own power, reminding them how to use their hearts. I will never stop, because I love what I do. I worked hard to get where I am today, and I will continue to keep going with my dream and goals.

 

My dream is to free up my fellow Japanese people. I feel that people in Japan is tied up in their way of strict “must be this way,” “same as others,” “cannot stand out,” and “care about what other think of you.” People, children deal with this idealistic society from very young age. I tried to fit-in in Japan. Jason and I had real hard time trying. We thought if we keep trying, one of these days, we might fit in. The answer was no. We never felt like we were part of the community.

 

My dream is to loosen up a little bit of this hardship of Japanese mentality, because too many suicide and too many anti-depressant drugs are being used. The shame of being depressed, the shame of being able to show your true self, and shame of the family. The Samurai heart still lives in the culture of Japan and its hard sometimes for so many people. Shut out from the rest of world, people are clueless. I guess this might be happening everywhere in the world.

 

Individual has to want it or one will never find the true freedom.

My dream is to share my experience to others to benefit for their health. True sense of health in calm way of being, naturally balanced, and organically grow old. The biggest of all I would love to assist the life at the end of new beginning. This part is still seem a little far away, but would love to have a place where family comes to celebrate life. Treat everyone and bring all the hearts together for the ones journey. Even for animals.

 

I don’t know what else to do with my life. This is my work. I wish I can document everybody’s different life story, because they are all different and amazing. I love hearing people’s stories and how they are here today, even though it is so hard and tough, they are amazing. I want to honor all individuals and let them know that they are okay. We all have our mission in life. I think the main differences in the generational gap is that we believe from our hearts that we are one as a species, and nothing cannot separate us.

 

We know in our hearts.

 

We feel the connection to the Earth.

 

We feel for the nature.

 

Stay strong and we will be okay. Keep working on your dream and hold that feeling of connection. Know it in your heart. Live from your heart. Feed yourself with nutrient rich organic food, drink lots of water, go for a nature hike, go camping, look at the stars and moon, feel the sun shine. Feel the strong energy inside of you. Grow your root down now to where you are. Spread your wings from your heart. Step back from yourself and look at yourself. Feel the strength in yourself.

 

You got it.

 

Breath

 

Breath

 

Feel the light from your Heart.

 

Let it flow inside of you. Be calm and gentle with yourself.

 

You got it.

 

 

遥かに超えるエネルギーをどう自分の元へ持って来るのか。どう一体化しようか。浮いてしまうと頭が飛んで行く。引越しや、生まれ故郷を離れると根っこを引き抜かれたかのようになってしまうから。新しい場所で自然に浮いた感覚で過ごす様になる。でもいつまでもお客さんでいては気分障害の元になってしまうので、しっかり、根っこを生やす瞑想をするのがお勧めです。

ゆっくり読んで実験して体験してみてください。電車の中では出来ませんので、公園に行って読んでくださいね。

足の裏から太く強く地面にググっとドンドン生やしてみて。自分の身体が茎だとしたら、もう既に強くしっかりする感覚が掴めると思います。やってみて。同時に頭からは天に向かって伸びてしっかりとのびのびと手を広げる感覚を感じたら、自分から10歩離れて自分を見つめてみて。

 

どんな木ですか？

 

お花は咲いてますか？

 

元気ですか？

 

お水は足りてますか？

 

養ってあげましょう。あなたの木。しっかりと根っこを生やしてあげましょう。踏ん張って、どんな季節でも、天気でも、風でも倒れません。根っこがしっかりしていれば茎は強くなります。茎が強くなったら、天に伸びましょう。うーんと遠くまで。宇宙まで行っても大丈夫です。大きな大きなエネルギーを自分の中から感じてください。

 

心が真ん中で、心から光が発します。

 

この光が

 

愛

 

ですね。

 

このまま少し自分に時間を取ってあげてください。安心してあげてください。身体中の細胞一つ一つまでこの感覚が行き渡るまで時間を取ってください。太い根っこを感じてください。強い茎の身体を感じてください。頭からパーと開ける自由な感覚と心からの光。指の先から足の指までびんびんして来ませんか。この大きな大きなエネルギーは今自分の中から発しいる事実を知ってください。無限です。ただ、しっかりと自分と向き合う必要があります。水の補給、栄養のバランス、運動と休養、人とのコミュニケーション、自然での本当の時間。

 

身体を安心の状況に戻すということは恐怖を無くすこと。

 

恐怖は身体にストレスを与えます。キュッとし、神経が硬くなる感覚がしますね。自然と涙を出していいんです。自然と出さないと詰まってしまい、長年貯めて置くと病気の元となります。いいんです。人生は辛いのです。でも辛い事で幸せを感じる事が出来る一瞬があるんですよね。いい辛さも有ります。世界が苦しい中、今、一人一人が大きな大きなエネルギーの存在を知ることがきっと、地球にとっていい事だと私は想っています。一人一人が強い茎を持ち、しっかりと生きられることは地球を癒していることに繋がります。

 

自分で

 

感じる力を知る

 

自分しか無い

 

Thank you

Thank you for reading and feeling,

 

Love, Love, Love to the World~

Delivery Story

 

It has been 3 month since I picked up my lap top to write blog. I was super focused on bringing Koji into life to a safe place. All my extra time was going to visualizing smooth birth and having the house clean as possible, having all the gears and items in place. My parents decided to come and support my recovery at the last minute. Now I had to get the house extra ready! I was working too, stumbling into the salon where my office is located. I was working 2 days before the birth! I loved it.

 

Maybe it was all the cleaning around the house or the having gentle sex that fasten my delivery, but my water broke in the morning at 7:00. I felt a slow leak to water coming out like a big wave of the ocean. Wow, I could not believe there was so much water coming out. I called Amanda (my mid-wife) and she came over around 9:00. We made some plans and was going to see what would happen, it is all up in the air, never could tell what is going to happen.

 

Amanda left, Jason (my husband) went to the store, because my parents were coming that afternoon from Japan and I wanted to have some grocery and water. Kids were home for winter break, it was the most beautiful blue warm sky in December 29^th 2016. I put some relaxing music and prayed for safe birth, had some calm moments for myself and the contraction just started to get strong all the sudden, and coming every 4 minutes!

 

I texted Amanda and called Jason to come home. By the time people were showing up I was in hard contraction, stuck in the toilet. It seems like the contraction was just keep coming and coming. Amanda helped me move over to the bed and kids were worried, but were helping me by bringing me water. Jason was working on hot water for the tub, but we just didn’t have enough time. I had to ask him to stop and just stay with me, I mean, I was in some pain at that point.

 

My memory is already vague around here, but I do remember, for a brief moment right before the birth “Can somebody take over…” And then it happened, the head was coming out and kids were called to watch the miracle that was about to happen in front of the faces. It is pretty amazing, Lillian (my 8 year old) was filming this whole thing, Michael was very concern and scared, so I consciously looked him in the eyes and gave him a big smile and told him it’s okay.

 

There splash out the baby from my vagina, Jason catches the baby for the first time, team of doula who were just great and wonderful, I felt so lucky and joyous. 11:49 am. It’s almost time for my parents to get here. We waited to cut the cord till my mom arrived and was able to cut the cord herself. They were so surprised that baby had already come out, because we were just talking when they were at the Portland airport and I was telling them “Ohh my water broke.”

 

If I could to teach some women about giving birth, I would tell them to find that wild instinct as women we have deep inside. You don’t have to be a hippie. Break your shield of this image of perfect woman. Meditate on love for that baby and communicate during the pregnancy. Make your plans together. Feel each other for moods and sensations. Your life style and mood during the pregnancy will greatly affect the baby. What a stressful world we live in right now. I cannot even believe what is happening in everyday bases. It is hard not to get affected by the politics sometimes, but we have to know our heart and mind belong to your community. Find the community that cares and fit your belief. Stick with people you love. They are your family.

 

Please think about your mom. She loves you very much. Send a thought every day.

 

Live from the Heart.

The Heart is Love.

Love, Love, Love to the World~!!

今回アメリカ大統領選挙は慌ただしく終わった。人種差別・女差別など私の世代では余り気にしていなかった、過去の事が現実として身に感じる事となった。今まで、さほど気にしたことが無かった自分が本当にナイーブに思えるぐらい。おばあちゃんが私に言った一言葉を思い出す。

 

「おまえは幸せだ、女でけど、好きな仕事を選べる事が出来て…。」

 

と言われたのは私が19歳の時ぐらいかなぁ。確かに昔と比べてしまうと好きな科目を専門として選んで進学をするって事は当たり前では無かったのだろう。

 

70年代にカルフォルニアに居た親はたぶん凄い勢いのヒッピーな哲学を身にしたと思います。その中で産まれて来た私の世代は人種差別など知る事も無く、ピース＆ラブが普通にDNAに組み込まれている中、どうしても地球に平和を欲求したくなってしまうのだと思います。大きな銀行や石油会社が自然破壊を政治と一緒に組んで地球を犯している事や、トップクラスのお金持ちのやりたい放題での奴隷社会。

 

知らない方が幸せだと言う人も沢山います。それもそうだと思います。でも今の時代、世界の現実が人々の視野を広げているので、地球人として、何が起こっているのかを把握する事が出来る事が大事だと思います。人の心から発信される気持ちは大きな波動となり、あらゆる場所や人に届きます。目に見えないから分からないと否定をするのでは無く、ただ、本当に感じたまま素直に飲み込む事が出来る様になると人は進化します。

 

そう、人々は進化しているのです！

 

脳を使う、っていうことが本当に楽しく想えるようになると思います。脳からの発信と心からの発信とでは心からの方が10倍も強いと証明されています。なので、脳と心の両方を使える様に訓練をしていくと、自分がアンテナとなり、色んな情報や願い、お祈り、コミュニケーションが伝わり易くなるのです。動物と触れ合っている時、赤ちゃんと接している時など、人は自然と気持ちがいいハッピーホルモンを放出している状態になっていますが、この胸の開きの感覚を実感して掴み取ってみてください。

 

この状態で自分の未来想像をイメージします。その時の感情を実感します。そして感謝をします。描くまま現実となります。それはマイナスな事を感じる気持ちも一緒です。常にマイナス思考の人は自分の人生全てに対して文句を言っていたり、被害者妄想をしていたり、自分自分となってしまっているかも知れません。今また、政治と世界問題で悲しい思いや怒りを感じている人が沢山います。この気持ちに左右されてしまうととてもグランピーな人間になってしまいます。

 

なので、最初から愛で生きて居る方が楽って事ですね。

 

昔、有りましたよね。。。「愛だろう　愛」って！！　古っ！

 

心の波動を愛に変えられると胸のきつい感覚や、同じ事をぐるぐる繰り返し考えなくなります。自分を病気にしない方法を手短に手に入れてください。後は相手の気持ちを自分のモノにしないという練習です。他方から来る邪気はスルーして、受け止め無い事が大事です。人の話を聞く時は100％心を向けて聞きます、ですが、決して、自分のモノにはしません。自分のモノにしていたら大変です。邪気だらけなって、何が自分のモノなのか他人のモノなのかが分からなくなってしまいます。

 

治療家には絶対に欠かせない練習です。

 

目に見えない感覚の特訓です。目に見えないからこそ繊細に感じる事を追求しなくてはなりませんね。頑張りましょう。

健康妊婦生活の秘密情報 It’s time to share

まや妊婦のすべて

健康妊婦生活の秘密情報

 

食べてもお腹が空く～！最終段階を迎え、あと三ヶ月のところ、赤ちゃんはすくすく育っているんだろな～実感するぐらいお腹が空きます。でもここでむやみに食べると胃がもたれ、便秘になるのが目に見えているので、お水とお茶で何気に緩和しています。カルシウム、鉄分やミネラル・ビタミン豊富の食べ物を気にしながら、野菜とタンパク質をメインに食べ、フルーツとダークチョコレートで甘みを取りハッピーな健康妊婦を目指します。

 

食べ物だけでは無く、運動もしないと筋肉が衰えるのでなるべく歩くようにしています。この間は小さな山登りに行って来ました。結構大丈夫～なんて思っていたのですが、二日後にやっぱり筋肉痛になりました。適度なストレッチ、スクワットも欠かせません。毎日に気に掛けている事は足首の保温です。足首の冷えは骨盤の冷えに繋がります。骨盤は少しづつ開いているので冷えることが一番開きを防いでいる事になります。

 

夏でも一緒です。夏でも靴下を履いて、とにかく足首は冷やさない事に重要視するのが、妊婦にとって大事な事と言えると私は確信しています。足首の少し上に山陰交（さんいんこう）と言う穴がありますが、そこにお灸をすると本当に気持ちがいいんです。骨盤まですっーと楽になるのが感じられます。実は私、正しいヒッピーなんです。正しいヒッピーとは自然界を守り行き、人間も自然と同じ様に生きられる事を知っている事をここでは指しています。

 

鍼師、代替医療専門家として正しいヒッピーなだけでは無く、実際にお手本として毎日の生活からの実践して健康を研究しています。現代問題もしっかり把握している中、今の医療や世界自然問題や、経済、社会、政治、宗教にも耳を傾け、人間の幸せを考えさせられています。完全に手に負えない問題でもありますが、出来るところから、自分から、私の周りの人には、ブログから伝わることからと始まった試練でございます。

 

一人一人にアンテナが立つ様に、一人でも多くの人が自分はエネルギーを発信地なのだと築いていてくれるだけでいいのです。あの人の近くに居ると嫌な気分になる、あの人は好き、など、実は敏感な私達、生き物なのです。実感しています。なので、発信できる様に自分が築くことが大事です。ココロの愛のパワー、ストンっと胸に意識してください。はまる感覚を覚えましょう。ここからの発言とアイコンタクトを子供と練習、パートナーと練習、働いてる人と練習してみてください。

 

幸せを感じます。

I went to High school in Gainesville, Texas. Can you believe my parents signed the Guardian Angel paper work to a family that I’ve never met before? Yes they did. At the age of 14, I was send off to middle of nowhere in Texas from the city of Tokyo. Talk about culture shock and trauma. I am not sure why that happened, but the main reason was for me to regain my English. I was born in Sacramento, California and lived there till I was 4 years old.

 

Have anyone visited Texas before? Or anybody from Texas? Well, let me tell you, everything is Big down there. From people, food servings, drinks in general… Not knowing anything, fresh from city of Tokyo, my favorite food became the Country Chicken Fried Steak and Dr. Pepper (back in 1996). It comes with mash potato and gravy and butter corn (Yum!!). Since I did not speak much of English, being in a shock stage of my life, left all my friends back home including a boy-friend who I just hooked up with right before I was leaving Japan, I ordered Country Chicken Fried Steak and Dr. Pepper every single time we ate out.

 

Guess what happened. I gained so much weight. Within a month I gained more 10 pounds. I had to get new clothes, breaking out with pimples, and feeling pretty depressed. But the “life of Texas” went on for several years before I made a commitment of losing weight, and doing daily core muscle exercises. I decided not to eat those cookies at lunch cafeteria anymore, and kind of stop eating. Maybe it was not the healthy way to lose weight, but I lost a lot of weight, where maybe I looked like normal Asian girl.

 

At the same time, I was smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol like regular kids does. I was so confused. I felt like I lost my identity, who am I? What am I doing with this boyfriend who limits my fun? In my brighter story that I tell is that I grow up with Western Medicine influence, and my parents took me to Qi Gong practice when I was a kid, I have all these training from US and Japan, and yeah, I can speak both language pretty good. But all my learning comes from suffering and dealing with REAL issues of American Diet and Depression of Life.

 

When I started Acupuncture College in Boulder, I had a really hard time getting over myself with all the experience from not knowing who I am. I quit smoking the first day of school, started going to the student clinic and received regular treatment for 8 months, and cried on the commute to school every day for those 2 hours I had to drive. Not only I was mad at my parents for making all of these things to happen, my body was weak from not knowing how to eat well, and mental fog from all the buildup toxins in my body was really hard to get it out.

 

Now I know what health is all about. Through my body I have learned many poisons and damage that can happen in living in American culture. For me it was really hard to live in super strict Asian culture after all. It’s a different culture, different problems, and different people. When I was in Japan, I day dreamed about working in US and how much beneficial I would be for American people, because I know the culture and where the medicine is going.

 

I appreciate my life, I am glad that my parents send me to Texas, forced me study my butts off in survival mode, and I am glad to be here after all my adventures. I love Oregon, and it is my favorite States that I lived in so far. So let me help you help your struggles with diet, stress, depression, and anxiety. I am good at treating these problems. If you are committed to make life changes, I am ready to help you. Let’s work on you and we will put all our focus on you to get you on the healthy path with Ultra Alternative Natural and Safe way to regain who you really are!!

 

Live the Life you Love

Love, Love, Love to the World~!!

Treat Yourself 実感してください

Sometimes I feel like giving myself an acupuncture treatment, just because I feel “little off,” or “unsettle.” Also it is a good time to feel how the needle feels and rechecking how the treatment feels in my body. This time I am trying to see if I can see before and after differences in picture. With cosmetic acupuncture it is important that I look good, right?! I have to be the sample of the product.

 

I think as healthcare practitioner we are always the model of health. We have to be well all the time. This is good because my life style becomes clean, but I still struggle like everybody else. I can only clean the house well, when I know I have a guest coming over. I am not good at putting away laundry and the laundry room becomes a pile of clothes. I get tired at the end of the day with hip pain, and have to take a bath and set on my massage chair.

I am constantly on the “reset” with my own emotional life. Nobody is perfect.

 

Every day brings different challenge, and we cope every day to be our best. I truly believe that everybody deserved to reset and relax from their crazy lives. We all try so hard every day. When your body learns to relax and reset, that itself can help you clear your brain and receive more universal energy of natural flow. Natural flow of life force energy, body will learn to let go of stress that is not yours, and soften the muscle tension.

 

Know that you totally deserve it.

 

Reconnect with your heart-self. Who you really are, who you were born into. You know who you are. It is okay to be that person that you really are. Not the person the people around you create or expect of you. You are YOU.

 

May be I am just talking to myself, but I know that this is accepted and encouraged these day in the enlightened world view. We are finding out we are beings of powerful source. Even though the world seems so crazy, the spiritual world cannot be taken away, what is beautiful and our amazing natures on Earth.

 

Be one.

 

You are not alone.

美が世界を救う

人が見て、自然美が一番気持ちいいと感じされてくれるからです。

 

自然美の勉強が自分の身体の仕組みを知る一番の近道と知ったら、人々は一生懸命勉強をするでしょう。ところが、自然美は中々難しく、細かな注意が必要です。基本的には栄養的な三食の食事とストレッチ・運動療法で自然美は獲得出来ます。あとは顔の扱い方と使う品だと思います。

Back to Japan 日本

I love going home to Tokyo. I feel happy to be there close to friends and family that I grow up with. Seeing old friends and knowing that deep connection exist and hearing and talking about our mid 30’s life is interesting as it life gets for us. We are at the age of gaining responsibilities in our career, caring for family and with fun and hard work of balancing life. I love that when we see each other we jump right into our deep thoughts and honest feelings of our daily lives to share.

 

As Japanese culture we are wired to talk about our hardship from the heart, share life story with friends, we feel each other and listen. Japanese language connects to one another in such deep level in the amygdala. We understand each other, which is so different from English. English is fun, but I feel that we have to always explain the idea with supported logic to really get your point across. I feel miscommunication happens a lot and it is difficult to “get” English for foreigners.

 

I am even guilty with feeling disrespectful with the professors who have a bad accent. I am sure I piss off some people with my English and my usage of this language sometime in my writing too… Just to let you know, I come a long way to be able to write both Japanese and English. I’ve always loved to write and that helps, but to be able to share my inner thoughts and share with you, it took some courage to bring that first step out.

 

Now, I am dedicated to help you with your health concerns, because I see struggle in health care right now. Eating and getting regular exercise are the key elements in Health. Taking the right supplements and feeling or paying attention to your body is very important to your Body. Checking into your emotion and dealing with your trauma and getting that resolved type of treatments are better than just taking prescription drug to numb it out or hold in deep inside of You.

 

Balanced Medicine is our future. Taking prescription only, or just listening to the Western Doctors is not going to work anymore. We need to balance between taking and going to the Conventional medicine to treat your everyday stress with alternative medicine and taking the right supplements. Supplements can be so helpful because our diet does not provide with enough nutrients anymore with GMO foods, convenient food, preserved/process foods, and frozen/canned food.

 

Being conscious about always and every day with anti-oxidation will reduce the risk of all sorts of disease. It is somewhat easy to achieve fighting cancer in your body, reducing pain, reducing risk of diabetes and heart disease just by conscious of what you are putting in your Body.

 

The future health of people of USA is looking very poor if we do not change perspective on health. I feel that there are many people who have woken up to the Organic life style and really conscious of what they consume. These people got it. They are ready for the next era of survivable. But there are a lot more of those people who choose not the care… Or just simply does not know the risk that they are in…….

 

I can only help when people are ready and seeks the truth.

 

I cannot make you change. You have to be ready to make the change.

 

 

Are you ready?

 

日本！！感動をありがとう！！

久しぶりに帰ってみると人の多さにアッとされます。でも日本の魂は本当に力強いものを感じます。みんなでやる、という力。みんなとだから楽しい。仲間って本当に素晴らしいですね。アメリカももう少しここら辺を見習って欲しいけど、確実に無理なんだろうな。今回の選挙もまるでジョークのようだし。食べ物もやばいし。一体どうなってしまうのだろう。不安だらけ。

 

こんな時に想う私の心は、なる様にしかならない。。。

 

私に出来る事を精一杯やるしかないと思うこと。毎日の行いを精一杯やり遂げる。人との繋がりを大事にして、沢山の思いやりを注ぐ。子供達にも見ていて欲しいから。

 

キッズにはしっかりとコミュニケーション力を付けて欲しい事と身体の事を良く知って欲しいので、日常からついつい言ってしまう言葉が多いかも知れないけど、身をもって把握していって欲しいと母は願います。目に見えないモノの存在や、自然を感じるセンサーを育てているので変人家系からまた変人が育ち、鷲巣家ならではの価値観を省くんで行きます！

ありがとう～

ありがとう～

ありがとう～　日本人で良かった！！～

 

Love Love Love to the World~!!

感じるままに Bitter & Sweet

なる様に描く

 

なった感覚で生きる

 

大きな感謝を胸いっぱい感じる

 

深呼吸

 

 

 

人間が持つ素晴らしいギフトは欲しい事を言葉に出来る事。ピンポイントで自分がしたい事を言葉にするって何気に難しいと思いませんか？　自己中に思ってしまう自分。欲張りになった様な気分になってしまうなど、様々な気持ちが湧いて来るかも知れません。でも、ピンポイントで自分はコレがしたい！　こうなって欲しい！と思った事は叶うと思いませんか？　例えば、絶対にこのイベントに行きたい！と決めた瞬間に、このイベントに行けるように物事は進んでて行きますよね。

 

叶うのです！

 

心は私達を動かす最大の力を持つボスなのです。先ずは心が決めます。心が決まれば話は早いのですが、人は決める時に一番戸惑います。なぜ戸惑うかと言うと、周りの目が気になったり、色んな理由があったりなどしますよね。行ったり来たり、感情が邪魔したり、グルグルグルグル同じ事が頭で周ったりしますよね。

 

心の声だけを聴くって、慣れて無いと難しかったりするんですよね。筋トレの様に練習が必要です。

 

練習は普段から出来ます。

• 静かに今自分は何を感じているのか、素直な気持ちと感覚を受け止めてみる。
• 気をハートに持って行き、ふんわりと暖かい気を集まる。
• 落ち着いて自分は何をしたら本当の幸せを感じるのだろう～と瞑想してみる。

 

同じ様な練習はアニマル　コミュニケーションにも使われます。動物との会話は本当は簡単に誰でも普段行っています。動物や赤ちゃんに喋り掛ける時、私達は自然とハートが前回オープンな状況で繋がりを求めているのだからだと私は思います。

 

私達は誰でも最初は天と繋がり、とってもオープンなハートの持ち主でした。でも、人生の出来事やトラウマで私達の心はどんどん閉ざされて行きます。とっても悲しい事ですよね。今は子供のうちからその子の目を見れば親なら直ぐに状況判断が出来る様に、目にその人の心が映り出されてしまっているのです。

 

悲しい事が多過ぎて時には辛い時もあると思います。でもそんな時に自分の心と繋がって、ハートに沢山の気を送ることで、素直に乗り越えることが出来ると思います。どのステップもその場その時に素直に感じる事であとに引き伸ばさない事が出来ると思います。

 

その場

 

その時

 

言っておけば良かった。。。やっておけば良かった。。。引き伸ばします。

 

だから常に自分の心から生きているとモーメントを逃さず、心からの直感的行動が出来るのです。自分の心が100％感じたことなら間違ってはいません。本当に素直な気持ちからの言葉だったり、行動だったり。その信じる力は大きいです。子供に教えてあげて下さい。自分は自分でいいのだという事を！！

 

人が秘めているお宝知識です。

 

 

How is your summer love everyone? From what I see, I see lots of fun family activities, and road trips. Some people seem to have some emotional difficulties as well. This is perfectly understood, because it is summer time and when your heart is not happy, you feel very frustrated. Summer time is when your heart lives in full term. The heart wants to do all sorts of fun things and have some slacks.

 

If you don’t give the heart what it needs, it will causes you have some bad perception of life. It a good time listen to your heart says. You have all sorts of excuses, I know, but one thing that needs to happen is that you need to listen to your inner voice. You of all people have not listened to it…. Why? May be physically you don’t feel good, you are under such a pressure from other family member, or just feel stress in general.

 

It is really not fair to treat people around you shity just because you feel bad. You should always explain your situation, because people will make an assumptions and assumption are usually never right.

 

Please share your heart. Sometimes speaking from your heart takes lot of energy. Blood pressure goes up and gives you a headache. Sometimes, we have to do it to protect the weak ones, like babies, animals, and natures. Being honest is simple yet lots of people are not honest, and people can see that you are holding and not being true self.

 

Sharing takes practice, but holding it in will cause you to have illness in the long run.

 

Time to time, even though sharing your heart takes lots of energy, it is still better than not talking about it from your heart. Summer is a good time to do this….

 

If you feel off, you can sit and meditate and really tune into your heart. Detox by letting it go as tears, calmly let it flow from your eyes.

 

 

 

Love

 

Love

 

Love

 

to the World……..

Easy Summer Tips! 夏ロマン

Summer is here!!

I love summer.

How about you?

Generally, during the summer we all feel pretty good. We have some traveling plans and fun activities with friends and family. I am going back to Japan for couple of weeks too and attending a lovely wedding. Also have a plan to go camping with my son’s best friend and his family. The master plans are being formed during the spring, and excitement of the summer begins as soon as our kids are out of school for the summer. I am sure you are excited as well…maybe?

 

I am always concern about the busy summer though, that we have too much fun and get over tired. Then the busy fall comes and everybody gets sick. Let’s plan to have better thought out plan for summer and ease into the fall this year. I want to give you several tips for this summer since you will be too busy having so much fun.

 

• During the summer, we have to really watch out for eating too much or drinking too much cold icy food/drinks. (I am 100% sure you’ve heard this one before! Still very important.)
• Watch your body temperature in the cold air conditioning situations. (If you were sweaty hot and jump into cold air conditioner, you are going to catch the worse cold ever during the hot summer, nobody likes that.)
• Not too much Water melon. (You know where you go with too much water melon; you will pee too much and get dehydrated, and would have to drink more water. Everything in moderation.)
• Summer Love is super fun, but having too much fun can lead to heart aches… (We all done it at least once, right? That fun summer love, where did it go… During the summer, our Hearts are wide open, receiving and projecting lots of love to the world, seeking connections and fun. We have to watch out not to lose control of the Heart and feel like a crazy person.)
• Perfect time for Romantic dates and passionate love making. (Go for it, make a special memory for 2016!!)

 

If you are going to places where it is so super-hot, you always have to drink water, heat stroke is real and does kill people every summer. The summer sun is strong and wearing UV protection is very important these days too. Please remember to get sun protection for your family members too.

 

I understand as the mom of the family, by reading this article today that you may feel responsible for family’s well-being, but I don’t want you to get stressed out. Please enjoy your summer and think through to the fall, because you know everybody is going to be tired when the school starts back up again in September. Summer is great for romantic nights and beautiful adventure to see the world, and grow up a lot from all the experiences that you had. Have lots of fun and follow the basic guide and you will be in harmony with the season.

こんにちは！

もう暑い季節になってしまいました。夏本場ですね。今日は久しぶりにマッサージを受けました。心も身体もまったりしちゃいますね。人々はきっとお互いを癒し合いしているんだな～と実感しています。一人強がって生きていると損をするのでは無いでしょうか。でもきっと貴方の周りでもそういう人って必ずいますよね。どうして、そんなに強がっているんだろうなあ。

 

夏は愛が高まる季節。愛情豊かに今日も笑顔でお出迎えです。

 

心から愛情たっぷり出来る自分に恥ずかしさのバリアを外し、素直の過ごしてみてはいかがですか。思ってる以上に簡単ですよ。貴方の愛で周りが幸せになります。

 

子供達も私も8月に日本に帰るのをすごく楽しみにしています。

 

お会い出来たら本当に嬉しいです。

 

Love, Love, Love to the World~!!

深呼吸 Take a Deep Breath

Today I feel like sharing my deep thought on womanhood. As a man reader, you might feel like here we go again with feminism, but that is not where I am going. Medicinally speaking, naturally women’s body is slightly different than man, hormone plays a big deal in our differences.

 

I grew up seeing my mom in the work field as a normal thing. I had no idea that women were not allowed to work in academic or medicinal or scientific field at all just may be about 100 years ago. Little work at a time, women have been working hard for other women to be able to work as human at least in developed countries.

 

I remember my grandma telling me that I was lucky to be able to choose a career of my choice.

 

So much has changed so fast for all of us human and animals and the entire world of Earth.

 

For my mother’s generation, she got to choose and work in the mostly men field of Veterinary world at the time. I know that she had some hard time working in this environment getting picked on by older men or just working in manly environment all the time. Luckily she had my dad to protect her who understood their own generation and world peace.

 

This year, my mom finally retired at age of 65. She had worked so hard to build her career, very smart and strict minded and organized. Now that she had retired, I really want her to relax and enjoy herself as much as possible. Working so hard is tiring for women’s body. Women’s bodies are not designed to work so hard and put up a manly fight.

 

Women, we need to take our time to nourish ourselves all the time.

Take time to relax and enjoy the moment with family and pets or whatever you love to do. Try to avoid stressful life style. We get sick when we push ourselves, push the body to the max. I know that as a mom, we put ourselves last, but sometimes, we need our bath, we need to take a hike in the mountain, walk and get some sun at the beach…

 

Take care of the body and mind, which then naturally that will take care of your spirit.

 

The degenerating Earth and our health correspond to one other. As we treat our mother earth poor, our health degenerate too. It’s a sad circle we are in right now. In our individual level, baby step that we can take is to be part of the right cause that you believe in. Recycle really well for our next generation. Save the Earth.

 

I am happy to announce to you, I am pregnant!!

 

Being pregnant gives you special power. Special power to live and do things right for the baby who is coming to this world…. What if you are having baby inside of you right now? Knowing what is going on to our society with drug/vaccine problems, radiation in Japan, toxic food of GMO, polluted air quality from Chemtrails, toxic sea from Fukushima, and not to mention increasing health issues of cancers and heart diseases.

 

So much over our sweet Mother Earth.

 

I am supposed stay calm and happy as a pregnant woman should be, but it is hard to stay calm when everything seems all wrong. So I will put my focus on my happy little world and not think about the entire world.

 

I am only happy to bring this baby into my life for some selfish reasons. So when I die, these children of mine will hold me and tell me that they love me in their arms. That is all. At certain point, there is no control of our crazy world that we just tune out all the bad things or scary things, and we just become focus on our everyday lives. We do our best. This is why it bothers me so much when I meet people who don’t care much of anything. They just talk and talk bull shit out their ass.

 

I want more mindful people, who care about the world and earth. I want all of my friends to care about the world want to teach next generation to care and treat people right from their hearts. Be a truthful person. Don’t sabotage each other. Be more professional as who you are. Take responsibilities. Stop blaming other people for your shit. You are You.

 

Taking my baby steps to peace.

 

My inner peace and love.

 

Love that I have for humanity and earth is so great that golden light burst out of my chest. I love being here. I hope you do too. Love your people.

 

Thank you…..

英語文、長かったかな。全く英文とは係わりが無いのですが、女性をテーマにしています。

～夏の妊婦さんへの安産対策編～

 

おめでたい中、身体の変化に合わせて色々大変な事もあるかと思いますが、楽しみながら妊婦生活を送れる様に様々な工夫をしてみてはいかがでしょう。

 

禁酒、禁煙、カフェインも駄目と色々な事に制限がかかる妊婦さん。得に初めての妊婦さんは初めての身体の変化に不安も有るかと思われます。痛いし、お腹空くし、だるくて眠いし、イライラしやすいかも？　夏に妊娠しているのはホントに辛い時も有るかと思いますが、先ずは安産対策です。足とお腹をとにかく冷やさない事を第一に心掛けてください。

 

第二子の時に毎週鍼の先生が足にお灸をすえてくださいました。夏なのに、靴下を必ず履いて、腹巻して、いつもお腹の中で育っている赤ちゃんを温めていました。サンダルで八百屋さんに行くと毎回、八百屋のおばちゃんが「また脚だしてー！」と怒られてました。本当に暑い日は勘弁して～！と言いながら、でもいつも見守ってくれた近所のおばちゃんに感謝です。

 

ヨガも関節を柔らかくしておく事とストレッチをする事で痛みも軽減できます。ここら辺が安産対策で一番の鍵だと思います。とにかく身体を冷やさない。得に足とお腹を常にカバーしておくこと。お灸で安産対策。お灸をする事で子宮が楽に仕事が出来るイメージです。後とても大事な事は胎教。胎教と言っても、簡単に言うとお腹にいる赤ちゃんとのコミュニケーションを取るということ。常に話かけて、気持ちで繋がる練習をする。歌を作って歌ってあげる。出産のイメージトレーニングをする。

 

気持ちはいつも共感です。素直に泣ける仲間で居られるのがアイデアです。

 

身体の内側へ。。。内側へと意識を持って行きます。自分のスピリッツと繋がる様な瞑想の空間へと行ける事で赤ちゃんと繋がることが出来ます。

 

元気な子が産まれて来ます様に～

 

鷲巣は応援します。

 

実は私も妊娠をしています。やっと、気に入った仕事場が見つかり、さあ!と言うタイミングで来てしまった、働く女性の突っかかり。でも大丈夫。きっとこれも天の思し召し。きっと何かの役割があるのでしょう。申し訳ないほど、夜ご飯を作る気力が落ちていたり、横になって寝ていたい事が多かったり、イライラしてしまったり、でも家族は優しく見守ってくれています。

 

日本で里帰りも考えていたのですが、やっぱり、あんまり妊娠後期に環境をガラリと変えるのもどうかと思い、こちらの助産師さんに連絡を取りました。また、前回の様に家で産みたいと考えています。

 

自分の身体を通していつも勉強になります。

 

女性と妊娠と鍼灸をテーマに詳しくお届け出来るといいなと思っています。今後とも何卒宜しくお願いします。

 

今のところ安定期の8月にちょこっと日本に帰ります。

 

その時にお会いしましょ！

…Talking about food…

If there is one thing I want people to know about Health is that, Health is naturally occurring all the time, the body will always tries to be well. It’s when you keep putting the junk in there for the body to process and store in the muscles or fats. Chemical flows through the blood stream affecting the brain. Looking at what you eat is super important, but nobody wants to hear about it, because it is emotionally sensitive topic and it brings up some issue. We have attachment towards certain snacks, sweets, and drinks. It’s a rewarding system that became a habit or even part of YOU.

 

You see, it is already emotional and personal to talk about food.

 

It is really difficult to talk about food with people, yet, it is the most important key factor to grasping true Health. You can still eat that sweets and snacks, but please keep the amount in moderation.

 

Buy less processed food.

 

I understand in our busy lives, it is impossible to not buy any process foods, but certainly we can reduce the amount of buying the junk food. Processed foods are anything that comes in package, ready-made food, fast foods and some frozen food…even smoothies in the bottle is not good as you make it at home.

 

Eat less Dairy

Dairy is one of the most key elemental produce that causes many difficulties in the body.

 

Stop drinking Diet anything

The chemical for Diet drinks, low calories are harmful to the body, it is addictive too. Just stop with the soda, it is melting your bone density, and too much sugar or fake sugar that your body does not know what to do with.

 

Are you drinking enough water every day?

Are you eating enough dark green vegetables?

Are you doing your stretches?

 

What does your body/mind/spirit need to feel good?

I know what I need. I need to take it easy once a month at least around my moon, and really feel my body. I deserve to check in with myself and do whatever I need to stay happy and healthy. Especially, with my occupation, I have to stay healthy and strong to see people and give Universal energy of love through my body and hands. I also know that stress will cause inflammation which then leads to other illness.

Anti-Inflammatory is Anti-Aging or shall we say Smart Aging.

 

Your attitude does matter too.

When you are just so careless about your situation or your normal daily lives, you are not grounded. When people are not grounded, your attitude and the eyes will show your lack of care. It comes through in the voice, body gestures, and your communication.

 

Start with Imagination

Imagine from your feet, you grow roots into the Earth. You already feel so much more grounded. Imagination is amazing! Use that part of brain more and more, it will help you with strengthening your instinct/gut feeling/heart/love power that we all have as a Being.

 

I am writing too much.

Please take baby steps making progress in your Health. Everybody can do it. You have to feel it, feel your body response to your kindness.

 

Much much love to You.

Thank you so much.

 

Hope to see you soon~

今日は食べ物の話でした。食べ物の話は本当に大変。でも健康の半分は食べ物から来ていますから、仕方が無いのです。いくら鍼をしに来ても、毎日の事なので、しっかりと食べ物と健康を掴まない限り、健康への道は進みません。日本人はラッキーで日本食がヘルシーだから、素晴らしい文化ですよね。

 

でも外食をしていると、ほとんど肉だらけ。余りお野菜を見かけません。

 

フルーツも値段が高いんですよね。健康に生きるのがちょっと大変でストレスになっているこの時代。しっかり把握したい内容です。マッサージも鍼も良いんですよ、ストレス解消に使ってもらって、でも、健康管理を毎日するのはご自分なのです。

 

ほうれん草の胡麻和え

野菜の味噌汁

手の平分のお肉

濃い緑のサラダ

ご飯

水、お茶

 

家で作るスムージー

りんご

ばなな

季節のフルーツ

緑の野菜(ベビーほうれん草、ブロッコリーの芽)

 

野菜炒め

スープ

豆腐料理

ご飯

 

スロークッキングと呼ばれるぐらい、カップルで一緒に作るのもロマンチックですよね。美味しいと心も喜びます。幸せを感じて内臓もハッピー。

 

シンプルが一番いいんです。身体がぴんぴんして来ます。濃い緑の野菜を食べていると自然にデトックスも出来るので、スマートエイジングにもなります。

 

日常のストレッチや運動も入れるとなおさら元気になりますね。身体の痛みも軽減できて、ストレス発散です。深呼吸をするだけで気持ちいいです。

 

ご飯って大事ですね。

人間がどう食べるかで未来が変わっていきます。食べる文化を大切にして行きたいですね。美味しく健康への道へと進みましょう～！
