I have been quite for a number of months and this was extended due to Xmas festivities. During this hiatus I had a break from my normal gym routine which brought about some changes both good and bad.
The bad was that as I was not doing the same amount of mobility and training my body went through a forced rebalancing period. I had some tension increase and reverted to my jaw neck and shoulder morning routines to improve mobility and comfort.
I had some mild migraines but could easily mitigate them with my scalp, temple and neck massage which is very effective. This meant I could ease off on my morning jaw and neck mobility routine which I something I relied on daily for the last 6 months.
My TMJ returned which was unexpected. Mine tends to be tension in the jaw and joint on the right hand side and I noticed a slight misalignment but this was not enough to cause concern. It took me about a week of neck and jaw massages and I maintained my jaw mobility routine while I was having the TMJ issues.
Once the TMJ issues were resolved I naturally stopped doing my morning mobility routine. Part of that meant I could refocus on morning meditation which is something i have been lacking but that was due to me working to resolve neck and jaw tension issues from the migraines.
I am now in the fortunate situation that I have not had a major migraine in over 3 months. Even with archery practice I rarely have migraines at the end of the sessions which makes a big difference. I have maintained my shoulder strength and mobility routine.
This focus on strengthening these areas are two fold. It ensures my shoulders are capable of dealing with a 3 - 4 hour archery session drawing a 37lb bow and firing arrows consecutively and the mobility ensures I can use my back and scapula to draw, hold and release the bow without fatiguing.
My next goal is to build out the stress modules for the course I have created and this is one of the reasons I have been so quite. I am planning on publishing my migraine book and I am in the process of finishing a second one about vagus nerve regulation. These topics do coincide and I have been doing a lot of research into vagus nerve regulation and how meditation and various other treatments fit into stress release.
I wont have all the modules completed but more videos will be added as I complete the books and finish of with the launches and follow on activities.
