Please know you're not alone. The question isn't whether touch is addressed. It's who gets to be recognized as the expert practitioners trained to work skillfully with it. There's a history here worth sitting with. Here is the FDA comment link: www.regulations.gov/document/FDA...

Collaborative care language in the safety amendment to California SB1012 on psychedelics was based directly on how I operate today with ketamine care. More studies are looking at pain and related movement/manual therapies; massage therapists are prejudicially excluded from learning, laws, & studies.

Once again, I gotta say: you cannot treat anything you’re feeding into an AI as anonymous. There are enormous ethics implications for, e.g. referees who are clearly uploading others’ unpublished papers without consent, let alone health care professionals or law enforcement

Working on outlining opening (Oct 1) and closing (Oct 30) remarks. For opening, I am thinking about macro trends and impacts over the past two years, like the venture capital hype cycle, federal influence, and which types of bodywork have been deemed 'acceptable' by the psychedelic establishment.

Primary fermentation on this year's Yard Cider (6% ABV). This is mostly Newton Pippin from a friend's tree with a bit of his Golden Delicious. I also added a bit of Hewes' Virginia Crab and Harrison on over-pitched AVB-1 to preserve malic acid.

Same primary fermentation vessel, and this has slowed fermentation a lot. No foam cap on the apple juice!

Being pushed into mobile-only operations by city councils who purposely further regulated massage therapists after COVID so that we could not come back after we lost our businesses & homes (hint: traffickers never left), this and firearms are two things that deeply trouble me about working in homes.

I wanted to continue my studies of the Harlem Renaissance at CAL. The American Art History chair looked at trees. Worked for the head of the AA studies dept at CAL, where art history was not a topic.

Thanks for your presentation. In the pre-Colonial frames you reviewed, did they align more with the past/mental frames we are familiar with from today's psychotherapy-driven practices, or more with the future/body orientations of many current Indigenous lineages? @nichols-lab.bsky.social
