Facing Life: A Ten Week Journey- Week Five
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
‘The sounds of silence,’ were the words that echoed through my head after Deva/ Debra Troy said them as I was lying on the fuzzy plaid blanket covered massage table in her Doylestown, PA office for the fifth of ten Facial Reflex Therapy sessions. This modality was created by Lone Sorensen for the purpose of working with…
A Pampered Woman
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
Yesterday, I saw a meme on Facebook that showed a woman sitting up in bed, yelling out to no one in particular “Somebody pamper me!” and then in the next block, she realizes “Oh yeah. I forgot. I’m a strong, independent woman. Shit.” Can I ever relate? As much as I love being nurtured, like…
Facing Life: A Ten Week Journey-Week Four
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
As I entered into the fourth week of my sessions of Facial Reflex Therapy created by Lone Sorensen offered by Deva/ Debra Troy, I noticed a shift. Although I had been through menopause and thought I had gracefully emerged on the other side, I have been experiencing hot flashes that I refer to as ‘power surges,’ to…
Are There Too Many Items On Your To-do List?
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
I saw a poster several years ago that had a list of movers and shakers who have helped to transform the world. The caption read something to the effect that they had the same 24 hours that all of us have to accomplish what they did. It gave me pause … and these days, I…
Uncle Jimmy Parking Spots
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
Everyone I know has some manner of parking angel who assists them in locating a spot in a lot or the street. In my family, my mother’s brother Jim played that role. We would refer to them as “Uncle Jimmy Parking Spots,” in his honor. I have found them in the most challenging of locations.…
Facing Life- A Ten Week Journey Week Three
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
“Meditatively enlivened,” were the words that repeated themselves in my mind throughout the third session of Facial Reflex Therapy created by Lone Sorensen in which I was engaged, offered by Deva/ Debra Troy. I knew immediately what that meant, since I often receive guidance in bits and pieces from Spirit. I was deeply relaxed as her…
Who’s Your Gladys?- Book Review
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
You may have heard the adage: “People do business with those they know, like and trust.” Business really IS about relationships. Reputation matters. The ways in which the owners treat their employees, contractors and customers/clients makes all the difference in the world. Companies thrive or dive based on those factors. Loyalty is earned. Smiling at…
Inside Out Movie Review
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
Anticipation grew as I sat in a darkened movie theater with my friend Yvonne Kaye, waiting for the film to begin. Ever since I saw the trailer a few months earlier, I knew it was a must-see. Inside Out is a brain and heart child of the creative geniuses at Disney Pixar. The movie has been hailed by…
Love Rules Supreme
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
I cried when I read the news. Happy tears for friends whose unions are now officially recognized in all 50 states. Some were legally married in their respective states, but could now claim to be ‘legit’ wherever they go. The Supreme Court ruled by a 5 to 4 margin that same sex couples would be…
All Present and Accounted For
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
In the moment, I am aware of end of the day sleepy eyes ready to close. Good thing I can type without looking at the keyboard. A few decades as a journalist allows for that talent. Amazing that I was relatively challenged in high school, or was it junior high school typing class? In the…
