While we were traveling in Virginia, I asked to grab me some sour gummies, quipping that they'd help with my emotional regulation.

It wasn't until I was lugging two backpacks, a suitcase, and a four year old through the airport on the way back that it hit me: sour is the flavor associated with the channel and organ system that most helps regulate emotions. So there was some truth to my joke--not so much the gummy sugar part, but the sour flavor actually can help with regulating emotions and keeping that channel flow going.

Happy anniversary to this little goofball. A loach mysteriously appeared in our pond a year ago--no idea how or where it came from! Our best guess is maybe an egg stuck to a bird's leg, maybe from Agua Caliente?

I really enjoy herbal medicine; when I was in grad school, I'd often just spend extra time in the herb room looking through the reference books and being available to help others out with prescriptions. In my current practice it provides a great way for the treatment to continue between sessions, including for orthopedic issues, especially with access to Evergreen's line of modern formulas...
..which can be found at ! And they can't easily be ordered online, either. That's one of several reasons I think Tucson is incredibly lucky to have an herb shop like Yong Sheng, and they're having a grand re-opening at their new location at 2637 E Broadway on Saturday, May 23 from 10am-5pm! There'll be raffles, discounts, and samples--definitely go check them out! I wish I could be there but I'll be out of town 😭

Allergies have their seasons, but some people know them down to variations by the month. That's not taking into account just simple dust in the air, or pollution from extra traffic--luckily I can approach them all in similar ways, tailoring what I do to the individual and how their body is affected. Like with this person!

I had a follow-up on an interesting case today, where a patient had been having a mysterious shooting pain in their foot accompanied by tingling. At first they couldn't fathom where the pain had come from or why it had started. I did channel palpation, however, and felt that the flow of energy and electricity in the channel along their shin stopped at a certain point, and pressed it gently, asking if it was tender.

They almost kicked me--they'd forgotten they'd banged their shin on a low shelf in the kitchen they work in, and we together connected the strange pain and sensation in their foot to that blocked channel. In our follow-up, all of the shooting pain had dissipated after acupuncture, and only a slight tingle remained, which we continued to work on.

I'm always curious to untangle a puzzle and relieve discomfort! Call or text 520-609-8488, or schedule online at the link in my bio.

I know this sounds odd, but inspired by a couple conversations in the office in the past week: please do bring your UFO stories to your appointment. Just regal me with them, I'm here for it! I might argue that I think they're more incursions from higher dimensional space, but what is conversation for if not discussing topics like that?

I just finished Living Time, by Maurice Nicoll, which was lent to me by one of my patients. I don't think it's a well known book, but I kind of wish it was. While it took me a while to get into it--it felt like I was just in over my head at first--when I started to catch on to what exactly it was about, it felt like each successive chapter was actively changing my view of time, reality, history, magic, spirituality, and medicine.

Really, it could be said to be about the nature of time itself, in relation to our perception of passing-time...actually, I should probably cut myself from even attempting to explain it in this format, but I'd be happy to philosophize in person!

Another lesson for me and after coming home from a delicious breakfast at --

"Why does the house smell so weird?"

"Ohhhhh, dill."

Not only do we have endless coriander now, but also endless fragrant dill seed from the towering dill plant that's as tall as we are....
