what happens in my head

a month ago i meant to share this bit of excitement... many know i broke my shoulder 13 months ago. i never fully healed. mostly, this meant only that my yoga practice suffered, which for me was a major bummer.

just as i was coming to terms with my permanent limitations, this dude was recommended to me. he doesn't call himself any thing in particular. he's kind of a body worker, he says he's a mechanic. in 30 minutes, for $100, he identified several muscles that were in the wrong places (deltoid, bicep, and some others), and painlessly pushed then back into place. i was cautiously hopeful. a month later, i'm still totally healed. it rocks.

the pic here is a forearm balance, a position i couldn't get near a month ago. my shoulder just wouldn't move that way.

if anyone wants dude's phone number, let me know. he's a genius.

Perhaps you need to go back to him and take care of that dog-shaped growth on your abdomen.
It's small and girly and weak, so he should be able to excise it :P

Seriously, that's awesome. Might take you up on that.

fix me too!
wow, first of all, congrats!
second of all, my body is BROKEN! capoeira has seen to it that several of my moving parts and core regions will never be the same. seeing as how i'm not going to stop, maybe i should get some fixing so at least bad things don't get worse?
