I think we had Siskins in the garden on the feeder. Is that likely? They are very small compared to the Goldfinches and Greenfinches. Not a brilliant video I’m afraid.

Some new research on reflexology and neuropathy pain.

Summary: A study of 33 women with neuropathic nerve pain related to Type 2 Diabetes provided with reflexology as compared to 32 who received normal treatment, showed a significant statistical change in pain and sensory function as compared to the control.

This reinforces what we reflexologists already knew. The Vagus nerve can be stimulated to reduce stress and consequently hypertension, and help chronic conditions like fibromyalgia and long covid. In this study they are using electrical stimulation.

What if treating chronic disease started at the ear?

Researchers are exploring how non-invasive electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve through the ear could help manage blood pressure, Long COVID symptoms, and even cognition.

Sharing a post from a small business that makes lovely art. I bought a print from here last year and I love it.

I've just had my accounts through and it's not great news.
I knew sales had been down due to various reasons, Facebook just doesn't perform these days so I have to rely on events and many of them haven't performed either due to lack of customers 😢 so what is the answer for a business like mine?
I have already begun to try and get my makes into more shops & galleries but they too have felt the financial strain and at least a couple have closed their doors during the past year. I will aim to be brave this year and approach more galleries but sadly some even charge you just to show your work to them and it doesn't even guarantee you a place on their walls and I just cannot keep loosing money.
A few months back a lady at event said to me 'oh I don't pay that much for prints!' The print in question was £20! I haven't photocopied it, I pay a professional company to print them for me so by the time I factor in a) the time it takes to order/collect b) the cost of the print c) the preparation of the print, hand finishing, mounting, signing etc d) the fees I have to pay if I sell via a shop or an event e) tax f) postage costs/packaging. Hmmm....not actually an awful lot left for me and yet I'm the one doing the majority of the work. I wish people would understand that the price you pay for an item, the artist only gets a very, very tiny slice of that pie 😬 I know you guys get it, but so many people don't 🥹 What is the answer?! Any advice at all would be gratefully received.
If you like my art to help support me you don't even need to make a purchase, just liking or commenting on my posts will help them get seen and in turn bring in more customers. Thank you for reading all of this, you are all stars and I appreciate every single one of you 🫶
