Managing our health

Still nursing the abscess, I attended a workshop yesterday on TAT or Tapas Acupressure Technique.  Do you know this?

Apparently a young woman called Tapas Flemming, recovering from the death of her twins and her own near death, began to learn about alternative health techniques.  She came upon various healing techniques, among them acupressure.  She learned about three powerful points -

Pat B, I have to disagree with you
Maybe you are trying to make me feel better.  Right now, I don;t care how I look (like I swallowed a whole porato in the right side of my mouth), Its the pain which is the issue.  I really like what you said about me feeling better right away!  Thank you!!

poor you
Your life sounds so busy and interesting, I love reading about it.  But take care, maybe you're a little run down?

Once the infection has cleared it will be easier to bear
