For those of you who do the whole chakra diagnostic thing, I got some good news. I asked Lori to check in on my problem areas and see if the last month of work since the IG had had any effect. The results:
Crown chakra, forehead chakra and heart are all normal open again.
And...2A, the front pubis center, is open for the first time in about a billion years. It's tiny; it's chaotic/transformative...but...it's open. Yeee ha! And the back is a little smaller, too, so I don't have to die of too much sensation. Thank god.
It looks like things are about to get better.
