Interesting character.

Pretty sure I've posted this here before not long ago...🤔 it seems it somehow vanished... O snail Climb Mount Fuji But slowly, slowly! Kobayashi Issa

Thought it would be useful to share my findings as they might be helpful to someone in the future. Have to wait 2 weeks for a dental apointment and I find myself with excruciating pain. Paracetamol and iboprufen not working anymore. Took some other Polish medication even stronger but guess what? Stopped working : ) Came to my mind two things said and written by Moshe Feldenkrais. I remembered him saying once in a video where he was treating a woman with chronic migraines that he had " many ways to trick her brain". With this in mind I tried to saturate my brain with "information" focusing in specific areas of both soles of my feet not giving any chance for the brain to give any attention to the pain. It worked. The pain was gone for more than 12 hours. Other thing that I have tried and again with Feldenkrais' ideas in mind was the following, according to him sensitivity is directly proportional to muscular relaxation. You can't feel a feather on the palm of your hand if you have been carrying heavy weights. So, if you try to feel soft or subtle things on the surface of your skin the surrounding musculature will relax. Again, it works. A soft hand barely touching my head and face made the musculature relax and stopped excruciating pain. Feeling very thankful to know what I know know and if it may help anyone, great : )

Didn't know that one. Good luck with taming your dragon 🙂

Maybe you're right. Doesn't really matter to me. I'm interested in the simbology of Michael defeating the dragon, that's all 🙂

Glad you could relate to the image 🙂

Involuntarily visited Notre-Dame of Paris cathedral the past week and found this peculiar representation of St. Michael. Thought of sharing it.

I found this today and this thread immediately came to mind. Enjoy 🙂
