Heaven with needles

Golden Slumbers fill your eyes,
Smiles awake you when you rise.

So, as I mentioned before, I've been working on my fertility issues with some acupuncture. So far, I have been LOVING it. I have never been so relaxed. Last night was no exception.

Andrew was running a little late last night. I just laid down on the table and listened to the relaxing music he had playing in the background. After a busy day of hustle and bustle, it was nice to just lay there and not have to do anything or be anywhere. If he waited a few more minutes, I probably would have fallen asleep.

Andrew came in apologetically although I assured him, it wasn't a big deal. We looked over my latest chart and I discussed the depression that I felt over the weekend. Since it cleared up, I wasn't too concerned about it. If it had continued on, I would have changed my herbal supplements or asked for Andrew to address it with a few new points. After looking over my chart, Andrew pulled out the needles. He said that we were going to add a few new points this session to help my body gear up for ovulation. I just chilled out while he put the needles in. He added a new one to my belly, a few new points on my legs, and a new spot on one of my wrists. So far, there is one point on my wrist and one point on my ankle that kind of give me a little electric jolt when he inserts the needle. It's not painful...just way more intense than the other spots. I then laid there under the heat lamps and just let go of all of the stress of the day. I felt the usual warm buzzing as well as sort of a swirling sensation in places. My limbs felt so heavy...almost disconnected...like I could forget that I have arms and legs. I was SO relaxed. Andrew came back to turn the needles and I felt all buzzy again, but in such a good way...I could have fallen asleep!

When my session was over, Andrew gave me my next round of herbs. They are herbs specifically for luteal phase deficiency. We discussed dosage, etc. And then I headed on home blissfully relaxed and with a smile on my face.

My hubby has his session tomorrow. He is going to see Andrew since his acupuncturist is away this week. I'm curious to see what he thinks of Andrew.
