So, this past month I've started doing guided imagery (see here: http://www.holisticonline.com/guided-imagery.htm). My therapist suggested it. She actually said that if it was a choice between medication, therapy, and guided imagery, you should go with the guided imagery. I don't know about that, but it does seem to be a powerful tool if you use it correctly.

I haven't been doing it nearly as much as a should, mostly because it's boring. But I'm going to do it every day from now on, and buy some different CDs so I don't get tired of listening to the same thing all the time. Doing this, I'm very sure it will have a positive effect.

I'm also now going for walks every day. Actually, I've only done it the past two days, but I'm going to try to stick with it for as long as possible. When I've tried this before I always end up stopping after a week or two, but I figure just because I'll end up stopping it isn't an excuse not to start at all.

I take my dog along. And my goal is to go to a different place each day. It's nice.

And I'm trying to eat better. One reason I've started the excercise is to increase my appetite, since I've had none at all lately. And when I do eat it's always cereal, ramen, sweets. Not enough good, healthy stuff at all. :6

And, one more thing: I've started video blogging. I don't have much up, and none of it's particularily interesting, but here they are: http://youtube.com/profile?user=tulipxlii
