Tuesday 23rd Nov -- Just Meditate

Meditation is one of the ways I believe can help to tune my body back to the state where my nerve is not giving me syncope. I used to meditate before I sleep and it helps to put me to sleep quickly. It was also effective when I experienced my first syncope and I had bleeding in the brain due to the bad fall. I was meditating every night and also I slept a lot for the first few days as I was experiencing headache and my right foot could not lift up properly. I did that for nine days and I could get down to walk and raise my foot doing some Chinese Kungfu kicks. 

However, meditation made my tongue and throat condition worst, before I landed in the hospital with frequent syncope. So much so that I dared not event focus on the throat and tongue. It would excite it and I would faint. I believed another form of meditation was not about focusing on the problematics area, but ignore it instead, so that the subconscious body could do its own healing. Recollecting the first syncope, I was not even aware of the throat and tongue problem, because the brain was bleeding and the leg was could not be lifted. My attention was on the leg, which was away from the tongue problem. Perhaps, that was why I could nurse the brain bad to health and the Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia went away after a month. The only thing was that I was very conscious of not having the drinks and food that triggered any allergic prickling pain. So ignoring and not focusing was one of my solution.  

I should be focusing on the energy and chi moving in my body and getting the whole system to function simply. Diet, sleep, meditation and exercise are keys to my recovery. I will use the modern technology to monitor my condition as a holistic form. New sleep and weighing machine are crucial for monitoring my health.

Thirty Eight -- A break from the routine

Image
I had decided that Sunday to be dedicated to my other pleasure, photography. The routine of everyday can take a rest. I went out early to photograph birds and nature. Bishan Park, my favourite site, was looking warm and welcoming. Already many people were there, some running, some cycling, some walking and a few photographing with heavy, huge, camouflaged lens. I admired their strength and endurance to haul the weight and held them up to chase after that split moment. The lens and camera are expensive too. I used a bridge camera that is light in weight and my pocket. I hardly felt the prickling during bird hunting, perhaps I was too engrossed, or it was really so. I took all my meal at home and shuttled to the garden again after my breakfast and lunch. It was amazing to watch the bird going by their beings. Finally after two months, I was back to my routine, photographing. Birds are always alert, conscious of their environment and ever ready to take the flight of fright. I had learned ...

Twenty-Third day — reading cursive writing

Image
We went out for morning exercise at 7am. I walked at a slower pace, did about 3500 steps, then wind down with BaDuanJin. There were still some prickling at the tongue while I was walking. Q We saw the Flamed Back Woodpecker, hopping and scanning the bark of the tree trunk. Beautifully lighted in the golden light. She photographed, while I continued my walk. There were many kind park users who love to collect the crust of bread and spread them on selected grass patch, disregarding the no-feeding sign or the regulation. Previously I ever saw a beautiful yellow Oriole choked on the piece of bread. The Myna and the pigeon, mostly the black and grey bird know how to break it down before swallowing them. A proliferation of Myna and Pigeon can impact on the population of other birds population that are necessary for an ecologically balanced nature. Beauty is perhaps the only possible measure of that balance.  I always believe in sharing food with birds or animals but not the wrong kind of...
