Oh... to be pasty

I volunteered to help out at Grand Re-opening of this chiropractic clinic out in Pewaukee on Saturday. I was to man a booth representing NX Level and answer any questions concerning our training protocol.

I volunteered for this opportunity and I assumed it would be inside... I was wrong.

You know how they say the sun is at its hottest between 11am and 2pm. Well, I was outside, on the blacktop, no shade, no sun block because I didn't know it was outside, and it was between 10:30am and 2pm. Oh yeah....I'm pretty pasty to begin with so I just soaked it up! Loved it! My skin was asking for more.

I'll sum it up as this --> It hurts to turn my neck, flex my wrists, and put my hands in my pockets.

I don't regret it, I just wish someone would have told me it was outside! It was a good opportunity for NX Level to get our name to other like-minded companies promoting a holistic approach to health and we might get some Pewaukee fire fighters to sign up, thanks to Mary, one of our great office managers.

I am glad it happened earlier in the day cause that's allowed me more time to heal. I've never applied this much aloe over the course of 48 hours.

As far as training goes - it will be put on hold until the end of the week, maybe Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, because I'm a big baby and don't want to workout with sun burn it just plain hurts. But I'm admitting it-so back off! I'll get the work done, it'll just be Th-Sat.

Started reading Touch For Health by John Thie DC, and Matthew Thie M.Ed. Its a book on the holistic approach to overall health and healing using acupressure touch. I'm approx.50pgs in and some of the balancing process stuff seems just hilarious but it's been around for 1,000+ years so there has to be some anecdotal proof because its lasted the test of time. I'll keep reading. Learning and try to explain in one of these posts. I'm also hopefully getting Optimal Shoulder Health by Cressey and Building the Effiecient Athlete, so once I work on that - I'll let all 6 of you know whats up! ha
