Hello Bloggers,
How do you celebrate your birthday? What does this have to do with communication? I want to know if you spend them alone, or with family or friends. Talking and being with PEOPLE (healthy people) is the healthiest stroke you can have. What is a stroke? In TA the word stroke is defined as being recognized. Everyone on the planet wants to be known and heard. The birthday celebrations that I attend include people, food and touch….Yes, touching is a stroke too. We need positive strokes to stay alive. We need water, shelter, air, food, money and STROKES.
The next time you attend a celebration…observe the people and touching in forms of hugs and handshakes. You’ll notice people smile and are sharing gratitude.
Food and alcohol are common ways to get strokes. Those are considered the most damaging as they can affect your body in a negative way. Some people find extreme pleasure eating and / or drinking. I chose people first.
As a TA Practitioner I want you to enjoy all your celebrations in a healthy and happy way.
All the best,
Cathy
