[fmdxyoungjoo]

hi, so this is an offering for all four of my muses for the event post for any potential threads (especially the ones with prompts!) please press the like or directly message me if you’d like to plot for the event be it on discord or on joo’s tumblr right here.

youngjoo:

silhouette will be performing sixth sense, and joo’s voice isn’t exactly in the best condition for the high note in sixth sense ( potential thread for 3rd prompt) [dec 25th]

joo draws the red card and is part of the decorations team but everyone has forgotten how much of a two left feet + accident prone she is ( potential thread for 1st prompt) [dec 25th]

joo @ the holiday ball probably in a bath robe lmfao because there’s too many people for a swimsuit show [ dec 25th ;7pm to 11pm ]

dec 27th: she’s probably tired enough to just spend the entire day on the cruise ship so she’s free the entire day in her rooms here

dec 28th: joo is with the red team again and is working in the kitchens and thank god she’s not that bad at cooking in fact she’s actually good at it lmao the rest of the day she will be preparing for the concert with silhouette and being on stage before returning, probably exhausted by the end of things

dec 29th: she’s free the entire day, find her at the pool dipping her feet in the water because its hot, or in her rooms, probably catching up with sleep or working on her music because she plans to put out an album once more

dec 30th: this time she’s lucky to get the blue card and she’s going to get that free massage (pls her body is probably aching at this point lmfao) & pampering herself with that french fine dining

dec 31st : early in the day she’s with silhouette girls, preparing for the concert. the new year eve’s party she’s probably going to let loose a little so a tipsy joo might make an appearance....yeah...i’ll think on that again a drunk joo is a really...sigh. if anyone wants to find her, she will be there probably alone and drinking by herself slowly while admiring the night sky.

jan 1st : she will be at the fansign at the theatre with the rest of silhouette, waiting for her turn after 7rophy, and probably brushing shoulders with BEE since they’re up next for the fansign. the rest of the day is shopping in busan, probably going round to find little joys in eating (yeah yeah yeah she’s craving street food whatcha gonna do about it 😤

artemisia / sia :

lipstick is going to be performing news, wild and lil’ touch and knowing sia she would probably either be late / lost somewhere in the ship / sleeping  in the most unexpected places. the loud sounds of the rehearsals are also going to or probably might get to her, and some might find her hiding away hands over her ears trying to re-balance her disorientation and sensory overload. she might run / brisk walk off the stage mid-practice because of it as well. 

the same night she’s performing with lipstick, but the rest of the whole time for the concert she’s going to be having a good pair of earplugs in her ears--misunderstandings could occur because she’s not very good at reading lips. 

dec 26: she gets lucky and draws a blue card. fits her perfectly, probably spends the rest of the day lying dazedly on the benches next to the swimming pool, or just lazy enough to get into the water, and just lie down and float. actually. she might even fall asleep while floating, based on what i know of her personality. in that case someone pls..wake her.

the swimming pool thing might also cause some fun in threads because sia could have walked out of the swimming pool without caring if her hair was all over her face (its probably grown to mid chest by now), and coming across her with wet hair across her face trudging round the corner can be quite horrifying

the same night she’s going to grab food, drinks for the holiday ball and spend her time trying to find a spot where no one comes round. maybe you come across her because you’re trying to hide too

dec 27: free day on ship. great. she’s going to sleep. or blast music and work on her stuff. or play games. come hit her up and find out.

dec 28: she gets a yellow card and probably spends her time trying to sneak off and away from actually doing the mission because no, she doesn’t like animals, and yes, its because they’re too noisy. her ears hurt and her eyes hurt please spare her for a moment, or don’t and drag her back to do the mission. she rehearses with the rest of lipstick girls in the evening--good luck, someone from lipstick hear her rant about the animals in the afternoon and calm her frazzled soul 

dec 29: free day again. again, sleep, eat, blast music, work stuff, play games...come hit her up.

dec 30: she gets a yellow card again and is attempting to sneak and mingle with the blue team. maybe you are perceptive enough to catch the usually presentless her, or you don’t and she smoothly integrates herself into the team. if she succeeds, she’s going to the bar to celebrate which is rare in all honesty, we might get a drunk or tipsy sia who knows. or just plain sober sia. who knows.

dec 31st: again she’s with the lipstick girls in the morning, and at the new years’ eve party in the night. again, she’s trying to sneak food and drinks out so as not to mingle in the party. she will be attempting to ninja her way to the observation lounge. 

jan 1st: she will be at the fansign at the theatre, brushing shoulders with fuse girls and gal.actic girls at their fansigns. her fans usually bring her rather embarrassing little hats for her to wear that’s too big for her so you might come across her wearing those and shuffling out of the theatre or something. 

she’s going to honestly just walk around. mainly if there’s anything of musical interest that catches her attention, she will go for it. 

alyssia:

dec 25th: she’s going to be playfully getting ready with the rest of the bee girls for her performance, being the mood maker and the cheeky one she might purposely do some fun little antics to tease those around her and be playful with them

dec 26th: she get the red card and probably might cause more harm than good with decorations, though she’s pretty eager to help. who knows you might chance upon her getting caught in tinsel or entangled in the lights with no way to get out. the same night she’s going to be at the ball, probably eating and drinking and mingling with friendly people whilst being in the pool as well

dec 27th: free day out in taipei!! join her for street food!! she wants to eat all of the street food and shop at all the street markets she can find!! she especially wants to try the stinky tofu, so...good luck to anyone bringing her out she will insist on trying it lmfao

dec 28th: she gets the red card again :’) this time someone please make sure she doesn’t end up eating all the food she’s supposed to prepare. aly with cooking is always 85% eating and 15% cooking, she’s also not good at it at all so bear with her pls

dec 29th: she’s going to the card and game room, and the library, and the theatre and then the fitness centre she just wants to visit every place in the ship even though she doesn’t stay long in one place.

dec 30th: she gets the yellow card  and will try to mingle with the blue team. except..that she’s just generally bad at hiding her excitement ;;

dec 31st:  she’s probably eating at the ball, and then making a beeline for her room. by then she’s exhausted herself on the running energy for the past few days. she might fall asleep while eating, or doze while talking with someone

jan 1st: she’s going to brush shoulders with silhouette and lucid girls for the fansign at the theatre, and aly is known to be a bit wild when doing fansigns lmao so you might hear her hyping up the fans even while behind or waiting for your turn. aly energy at the beginning of the fanmeet: 150% , after the fanmeet: 150% and getting louder with bunny hats and flower crowns and just chattering non-stop (i’m sorry bee girls :’) she’s excited)

dojun:

dec 26: yeah, he’d rather be anywhere but rehearsing for alien. he’ll be distracted half the time or disappeared because he’s snuck away to watch over his gf. or he will aim to finish his rehearsal quickly and then go. 

he gets the yellow card and helps with the choreography of dance since its his niche. he’ll probably suggest some really cheer / hyped up songs that makes people feel like dancing upon hearing the song--that’s half the recipe of success he says.

holiday ball: do not disturb, thank you. he’s probably hovering somewhere close to his gf, watching over her and half heartedly talking to others. who knows you might see the warmer or actual side of him and not the dumb narcissistic side since he tends to be softer and more leaning towards his original personality when around his gf

dec 27: he’ll be at the fitness centre or the indoor pool, or you might not find him at all.

dec 28:. ...he gets a yellow card and will probably go around asking to exchange cards with others pls he’s kind terrified of the idea being around wild animals LOL animals remind him of his gf’s pets who detest him lmfao

dec 29: you won’t find him anywhere akjdgk this devoted person is off and away with his gf as secretly as he can

dec 30: he draws the red card. he hasn’t cleaned in a long ass time, but he’s willing to put in the effort as long as others do, and surprisingly you won’t see him complain but just diligently do his part.

dec 31: god he’s rehearsing with alien again. he’d honestly rather have time speed up in this part because his mind is preoccupied elsewhere. the new year’s eve party is going to be fun and blissful one, but he’s finally had the chance to fully relax and just be himself. maybe you’ll catch the flamboyant, loud ass prat version of him, or maybe the sentimental one. anyway, he’s staying up and finding his gf so that he can give her a new year’s kiss secretly because he’s romantic like that.

jan 1st: he will brush shoulders with origin members and decipher members, then appear at the theatre later on to watch from a distance and silently support silhouette.

Genkinoya & BlissMums Launch at Pacific Plaza, Singapore

Life is filled with various stressors from external influences to internal influences. These stressors not only cause our bodies to deteriorate but it worsens our mental health too. That is why we need to take a break every once in awhile to recuperate ourselves. 

Thanks to wellness groups like Harmony Lifecare, we are not only able to do that comfortably but we can restore our body as well.

Harmony Lifecare

Harmony Lifecare is a wellness group which comprises BlissCare Medical, BlissCare TCM, Harmony Skin Lab and JeuneTe. They provide premium healthcare and wellness services using advanced technology and quality products.

Recently, Harmony Lifecare launched two new brands, Genkinoya and BissMums. Both brands will enhance the wellness and medical services of the group.

BlissMums

BlissMums focuses on the ladies’ body, helping them heal from within. It helps those who are going through preconception preparation, prenatal care and postpartum recovery heal their body. Additionally, BlissMums also provides paediatric massage services.

You can see women as young as their early twenties doing their treatment and caring for their bodies in the vicinity. BlissMums believes that prevention and consistent care is the key to maintaining a healthy body.

BlissMums is dedicated to helping all women achieve their ideal state of health and a balanced body through their proprietary therapies and formulations such as their special JAMU formulation and exclusive Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy.

Located in Pacific Plaza, BlissMums occupies 1,216 square feet with 5 rooms and 5 Bedrocks. Besides their proprietary therapies and formulations, BlissMums offers comprehensive services like Prenatal Massage, Post-Natal Massage and Lactation Massage.

Mothers can also look forward to BlissMums’ 28-Days Confinement Soup Package in the future.

Analysing Of Capillaries

Before going through the Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy, my capillaries were analysed under a microscope. Apparently, I have corkscrew capillaries where I have a large accumulation of body waste such as heavy metals and toxins. My body type is ambiguous as my capillaries are diminished and unclear. This resulted in a hypersensitive body constitution.

To improve the body’s constitution it is important that I keep a consistent sleep schedule and maintain a balanced diet. Going through the Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy can help detoxify my body too.

Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy

Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy is a dry onsen that revitalises your body from the inside out, leaving you with the effects of detoxifying, slimming, beauty and anti-ageing.

Utilising the energy fusion of Hokutolite stones, far infrared rays and anions, the Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy can help boost one’s immunity. It also helps reduce free radicals which cause ageing and mend affected genes.

Hokutolite Stones

The Hokutolite stones used in the therapy sessions consist of a diversity of essential trace elements, including trace levels of radium. It has been proven to prevent and cure illnesses, earning itself the name of, “healing rock.”

The Hokutolite stones were initially discovered in Beitou, Taiwan, the popular district of Taipei that is known for hot springs. Then it was discovered in Akita, Japan, a large prefecture in Japan that is known for hot springs and festivals. These days, you can only find these stones in Tamagawa Onsen, Japan.

The Hokutolite stones were then placed on the bed where the combination of Hokutolite stones’ energy, the temperature of 38℃ to 42℃, far infrared rays and high concentrations of anions can help increase your metabolic rate and detoxify you.

High Concentrations of Anions

High concentrations of anions can help promote cell activity, prevent wrinkles and have anti-ageing effects. Far infrared rays allow the skin to have a healthy and youthful complexion glow too.

Temperature: 38℃ to 42℃

The temperature of the Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy was also set to 38 to 42 degrees as a protein known as the Heat Stimulated Protein (HSP) will be activated once our body temperature approaches 40℃. This not only helps repair our skin cells but for every 1℃ increase in our body temperature, our basal metabolic rate is increased by 12%.

The session lasts 45 minutes which is equivalent to a 30km jog.

Take note that although most individuals are suitable for therapy, these individuals are not suitable:

Pregnant mothers

Drunk individuals

Post-surgery individuals

Epileptic individuals

Individuals with pace makers

Before starting the session, you would have to cleanse yourself in their shower facility. This private shower facility hosts everything you need from the Yunohana Hokutolite shampoo, their shower gel, and even their facial cleanser. They also use a different showerhead that filters the water, resulting in revitalised hair follicles.

There is also a dressing area which consists of a towel to dry yourself, onsen clothes and disposable underwear to change into, and hangers to hang your clothes. You can also keep your belongings in a safe in the dressing area. Next to the sink, there are rubber bands, shower caps, cotton buds, cotton wools, makeup remover, toner and moisturiser available.

After bathing, it is encouraged for you to let your hair be at least 70% dry and thoroughly dry your scalp to avoid catching a cold.

I like how spacious and private the room is, leaving me to prepare myself before the therapy session. Cleansing your body before the session is important as you are encouraged not to bathe at least four hours after going through Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy due to the open pores. This helps maximise the benefits that you’ll reap after the session.

Although laying on a bed of stones does not seem like the most comfortable thing, I assure you there are many benefits to this. These stones can give you an acupoint massage as you lay on them and you are able to garner three types of energy through this session.

Plus, you would not be laying on them directly. A towel will be spread on the bedrock, increasing your comfort levels.

The 45 minutes session will be spread into three phases:

Phase 1 (Warming Up): Laying face down

Phase 2 (Perspiration): Laying Sideways

Phase 3 (Detoxification): Laying Face-Up

Each phase will last for 15 minutes and after every phase, a specially curated glass of water will be served to you before you continue with the next phase.

Phase one of the Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy warms up one’s internal organs by increasing the body temperature. After phase one is over, a glass of negatively ionised water is served.

Photo Credits: Harmony Lifecare

Phase two starts after you’ve finished the glass of water. Phase two consists of regulating the body temperature and lymphatic system. It enhances your body circulation too. Phase two is equivalent to a 10km jog. You will be required to switch sides after a few minutes to balance your body’s qi. After phase two is over, a glass of fresh lemon water is served.

The last phase is where you will start to sweat the most for it is the phase where your pores are opened and sebum is discharged from sebaceous glands. This detoxification stage helps clear our bodies of harmful substances and toxins. Additionally, you will burn calories, increase your metabolism and reduce body fats. This phase is equivalent to a 20km jog.

While laying facing up, a rubber mask will be placed on your face to enhance the detoxifying experience too.

Upon conclusion, you will be served a glass of extracted mineral water from Tamagawa.

Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy Review 

Upon entering the private room, I liked how the room was spacious and it has a private showering facility and armchair too. It made me feel safe and comfortable, without the fear of someone else peeking through the blinds. For those who want to enjoy the session with their significant other, there’s a couple’s room available too.

When the Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy session started, I was a little worried. One of the worries that were loaming in my mind was what if the therapy was too hot for me to handle?

However, I soon spotted a bell situated on the edge of the bed for me to press if I had any problems. It is important that you do not operate the bed by yourself for you may risk damaging it or injuring yourself.

As I settled in, and my body got accustomed to the heat at each phase, I started to let down my walls and slowly drifted off to dreamland.

The 45 minutes session was rather therapeutic to me as I get to unwind and escape from the stress at the end of the day. Laying in a bed of stones while my body does its best to detoxify is an interesting experience.

After the session, my body weight was measured once again. I lost about 1% of body fat and my body age reduced from 30 years old to 29 years old. My basal metabolism went up too. It is satisfying to be able to analyse my body's growth through numbers.

Available at BlissMums & Genkinoya

Yunohana Bedrock Spa Therapy is available at both BlissMums and Genkinoya although BlissMums will mainly cater to the females. If you like a couple-therapy session, those are available in their couple rooms too where the beds are placed next to each other.

BlissMums

Location: BlissMums, 9 Scotts Road Pacific Plaza, #03-03, Singapore 228210

Genkinoya

Located next to BlissMums, Genkinoya provides various services such as foot reflexology, BIXEPS, a full body massage, back and shoulder massage, and facial.

Location: Genkinoya Pacific Plaza, 9 Scotts Road, Pacific Plaza, #03-04, Singapore 228210

Opening Hours: Mon to Fri, 11am to 9pm; Weekends, 11am to 7pm

Genkinoya focuses on foot reflexology services based on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) concepts. One of their latest technologies introduced to the brand is BIXEPS, an award-winning technology that stimulates blood circulation.

Before trying out their groundbreaking technology, I got to experience a 30 minutes foot massage in their new 840 square feet outlet.

Genkinoya Foot Massage

Before the massage, I soaked my feet in a tub of 40 degrees warm water mixed with salts. After a few minutes, I removed and dried my feet. The professional masseur started massaging my feet after the lotion application, ensuring all parts of my feet are covered. The massage lasted 30 minutes and it did a great job of improving my blood circulation and nudging away the stress in my legs.

After the massage, I was served a cup of hot tea.

BIXEPS

BIXEPS is a patented passive “exercise” method that helps recapitulate the metabolic and regenerative effects of exercise in a non-invasive and painless manner. It uses magnetic fields to help “exercise” your muscles while increasing the blood circulation in the body.

Created based on 20 years of research and development, BIXEPS is a patented technology by NUS (Singapore) and ETH (Switzerland). This amazing piece of technology was crowned the winner of Innovation of the Year, product category by Aging Asia.

Each BIXEPS session only lasts for 10 minutes and you don’t even need to switch your legs. All you have to do is to put either your right or left leg into the machine while you sit back in your chair and let the low-energy magnetic field do all the work for you.

Users that have enrolled on a 12-week BIXEPS programme have reported various benefits such as faster recovery, better endurance and improved fitness. One of the users is recreational basketball player Liew Ee Bin that injured his right meniscus. The programme was so effective that midway through the programme, he was back on the court.

BIXEPS is suitable for all adults and senior citizens. It is especially beneficial to those who are recovering from injuries or professional athletes during recovery. It helps one’s blood circulation flow without stressing the other parts of the body.

With such an amazing piece of a device in the vicinity, I could not pass up on the opportunity. Thus, I did. I settled in the black chair and stuck my right leg in the device. The masseur switched on the machine and I started my 10-minute session. As it is using magnetic fields, you cannot use your phone while going through the session. I was given a booklet so that I can learn more about BIXEPS during the session.

While the session was ongoing, I did not feel much of anything. I listened to the slight humming from the device while watching the timer countdown on the screen. I did like the idea of it being a passive ‘exercise’ method.

Future of Harmony Lifecare Group

The future is bright for the Harmony Lifecare group as you can look forward to the opening of eight more outlets globally: 2 in Vietnam, 4 in China, and 2 in Malaysia. This will bring the total number of outlets to 16 by the end of 2022.

“Health and wellness of our customers are our priority. As the COVID-19 rules relaxes, we are expecting medical tourism to pick up really soon. Our medical and wellness team as well as R&D team have been working hard during the past one year, to bring forth the latest advancement in wellness and medical for a better quality of life with our lifestyle brands, niche products and services,” said Mr Eric Lim, the managing director of Harmony Lifecare group said.

Taiwan Day 8 - 28Sep17

I was caught up with stuffs when I came back, so was not able to post till now.

So my breakfast session did not happen cos the guy played me out. He only replied when I was leaving Kenting.

When I reached Taipei, I met up with my host, TF, for the night. Remember the handsome guy I met at the hot springs? We exchanged contacts and during our chats he had invited me to stay with him. I agreed so that I can save some money on accommodation (and hoping something might happen haha).

We chatted quite a bit over dinner and I was kinda shocked to hear that he is in his 40s! Cos he looked like he was in his 20s and at most 30. TF’s skin was so smooth and firm that there wasn’t even a single sign of ageing. We also chatted about his work, family, sex life and all. So apparently, he was not open and hardly look for guys. He only went to the hot springs cos he was too horny after not releasing for nearly a month. And he still has yet to cum despite going to the hot springs. I took that as a big hint and suggested we end dinner.

After reaching TF’s place, I headed to the bathroom to wash up. Halfway through, there were so many products there and I am not sure which to use, so I called out to ask him which I could use. So he entered the bathroom in only his briefs and I could see that his tent was getting larger as he walked towards the showers. I pulled him into the showers then tore off his briefs, revealing his straight veiny tool. I reached out for his beautifully sculpted body under the running water and began worshipping it. I could see his tool twitching the whole time and went down to start blowing him. It did not take long for him to shoot. Haha TF had tried to pull out and stop me from sucking further, but I held onto his hips and continued to suck till he cummed. 

After cumming so many shot into my mouth, its quite surprising that TF remained rock hard, though he got so sensitive to me blowing him further. TF was blushing as he kept apologising for cumming so fast (though it was my being notti). I asked if he still want to continue to play and he nodded shyly, so I continued to kiss and chew on his sinewy muscles. TF slowly opened up and began groping my pecs and arms, then pushed me to the wall and started licking me all over. I got into slut mode as he started working on my nipples, his warm licks and gentle nibblings electrified me, causing me to moan continuously. We would have continued nonstop if not for the sudden change in water temperature from warm to cold.

We dried ourselves then proceeded to TF’s bed. TF got me to lie down and started to give me a massage. It started with deep strong strokes like a true masseur and it got me really relaxed, thats when TF spread my butt cheeks and started licking my balls and hole. He progressively began tongue fucking and kiss my hole consecutively, The whole feeling was so relaxed and comfortable. TF then came to my ears and ask if he can fuck me, I just nodded with my eyes. He positioned his tool on my ass and slowly pushed in, being gentle the whole time and asking me if it hurts and all. 

As soon as TF got it all in, he turned into a wild beast and started fucking like no tomorrow. It really caught me by surprise as he was gentle the whole time, but this turned me on a lot. He then turned me over like a rag doll and started his ravage. I saw a whole new side of him, his smirk and dirty talk, with each thrust that was deep and strong. His stamina was amazing and he went on with such intensity for nearly 30 min. I felt like I was having continuous orgasms the whole while but was controlling myself not to cum in order to enjoy the fuck longer. However, I lost out to my urge to cum, squirts and squirts of cum came shooting out all over my face and body. I am not sure how much I cummed but TF was feeding me my cum and there seemed to be a never ending supply.

TF remained in me the whole time, horny me got hard again soon, and the moment he saw it. He started his rampage again, this time he lifted one of my legs and pumped even deeper than before. Again, he maintain the same kind of intensity, but this time harder and deeper. I felt so good that it got my cum oozing out again within 15 min. This probably turned TF on even more, soon after he started panting uncontrollably then pulled out and cummed into my mouth. The volume was kinda unexpected, even much more than the earlier one, and I kinda choked. TF kissed me with my mouth full of his cum, and ate them all up bit by bit. 

After that we just laid down and rest, haha but I am still quite energetic cos I was sleeping most of the time during my journey from Kenting to Taipei. I continued to muscle worship TF until he got hard again. TF really enjoys being worshipped and started jerking off as I groped and licked his bod. We went on for about 15 min, when TF pushed my head to his tool and cummed. This time I felt that there was only few small shots and I sucked him dry. 

It was really a cum overload night. TF had the impression that I have a cum eating fetish, but I didnt mind his as i tasted not bad :p

Day 7--Easter! 🐇

Happy Easter everyone! I hope you're reading this while also eating a lot of sugary chocolate and spending time with family🐥🐇🍫I'm happy to be here but I'm missing home a bit more today. So I made sure to treat myself especially nice☺️ I don't think I've ever had such a self-pampering day! If you've been following this babbling blog, you know I have failed miserably at sleeping this past week. Well guess what folks, me and my slumber party plan worked! This girl got a full 7+ hours last night. Wooooo! Xiexie (thank you) Taiwanese sleeping pills🙌 After breakfast with the Verb squad at the hotel, Lieneke Nata and I walked to an area dance studio that offers open classes and took a ballet (cause who wants days off from what they love?!). The class was packed but the teacher was great and gave awesome combinations that worked us hard, kept the class moving, and challenged our weight placement. She also gave us individual corrections, an honor in such a large class! We were dripping the whole time (the humidity is intense in Taiwan) so I definitely need to invest in a cute little sweat towel while I'm here. Almost every dancer had one and most of them had adorable anime cartoons on them. Why not sweat in style? The teacher and students were very kind to us after class and many said they'd love to come see our performances. Yay new friends! We walked back to the hotel (hitting up the cuteee MRT gift shop along the way) to rinse off all of the stickiness before lunch. Next was nommin at the vegetarian buffet again because how can you not want to an overflowing plate of delicious vegetarian dishes for the equivalent of less than $4.00 USD? If only we had pay by weight healthy options in America instead of fast food joints for affordable food! At this point I was feeling extra brave so I started walking into salons showing them pictures of haircuts in hopes that they could style my hair similarly. The first 2 salons didn't seem as good of a fit but the third salon seemed perfect. It was very stylish and chic but the man who greeted me at the desk was very kind and patient. We communicated through pictures and google translate and he understood that I wanted red highlights and a healthy trim with some layers. Remember how I mentioned that everyone takes their work very seriously here? Well Simon, my stylist, was no exception. He made sure every hair was in it's place, literally. And he was so nice! It's fun to see how humans can still communicate with body language when there's a language barrier. As part of my shampoo I got a complementary neck and scalp massage 🤤 and as my color set I had a delicious Taiwanese iced tea. He also curled my hair for free! The whole cut color and style was a complete steal in American money, especially in a salon that nice and from an experienced stylist, so I was bouncing with happiness by the end. I left Simon a good tip, which at first he was confused by because tips aren't customary here, but when I explained that I knew I overpaid and that it was the best haircut I'd ever gotten he was very very appreciative and told me I could come back for a free shampoo while I'm here. Thanks Simon!😄 Walking back to the hotel with lighter hair and bouncy curls, I couldn't stop smiling. Traveling can be so great! On my walk I actually ran into a Taiwanese man wearing a LaBron jersey while crossing the street and talked to him for a minute. We selfies it out and took a couple minutes to share our enthusiasm for Cleveland's hero before going our separate ways. I met up with Christina at the hotel to continue with the theme of self-care...we went out for nails! My nails pretty much always look like a 3rd grade boy's, so if you know me, you know manicured kate nails are rare. But it's so affordable here and what what the heck, Christina and I were having a lady date! I had to translate to our nail designer that I had a show in a week so I needed nails that would look natural from a distance, so she helped me pick a French manicure with a tiny sliver of silver glitter between the white and the nude to add a little extra spark. Perfect! Nails and hair ready to go we met up with the the rest of the Verbers and BodyEDT at the hotel so we could all walk to a local Japanese buffet. Once again, BodyEDT treated us to an amazing dinner. To use a phrase from my mom, they're spoiling us rotten! The Japanese buffet was like a work of art--culinary masterpieces all around! Everything was plated with such care and detail. Ping spoke to the restaurant before my arrival to tell them that I was vegetarian, so after I had already gone around and found a plate of food that I was confident was meatless, my own specialty plates started appearing at my table place. The waiter must have brought me 5 of my own courses. I couldn't stop laughing! I've never had so much amazing food served directly to me. I did my best to eat as much as I possibly could to show my appreciation and to try all of the new things. And I ate a ton because lezzebehonest, it was delicious!! The Japanese eggplant stuffed with tofu and veggies was my favorite. So tender! Dinner was super fun but by the end I was feeling pretty tired. Some of us decided to take a little night walk around the area night shopping district to ensure we digested well and were extra tired for a night of restful sleep. There's endless things to do and see in Taipei! I guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow to do anything else. Goodnight and happy Easter! 🌸Kate

[mountphoenixrp]

We have a new citizen in Mount Phoenix:

                                Han Meiying, who is known by no other name;                                                 a 22 year old daughter of Bastet.                                            She is a student and a dancer at Minx.

FC NAME/GROUP:  ye shuhua / g-(i)dle. CHARACTER NAME: han meiying AGE/DATE OF BIRTH: 22 / january 6 1998 PLACE OF BIRTH: taipei, taiwan OCCUPATION: dancer at minx and student (dance major) at phoenix university HEIGHT: 161cm WEIGHT: 47kg DEFINING FEATURES: has gray cat ears and tail that usually is hidden under her clothes and accessories (like beanies and hats) unless she’s working; sharpened canines and claws that she tries to keep trimmed.

PERSONALITY: when she isn’t working, mei is gentle and easygoing, not necessarily a very social person nor the type that seeks to be the center of attention at all times. she’s a very relaxed person who seems to be a free-spirit, not really thinking too much about consequences as long as it seems fun and doesn’t take too much effort on her part. she’s by no means an adrenaline seeker person, but she isn’t someone that uptight either. the daughter of bastet is all easy smiles and seems like she’s always in a good mood. like a stray cat, mei doesn’t feel too attached to people nor places (the only place she has ever attached herself to was taken away from her and the only person she has ever attacher herself to is gone, the only thing she’s attached now is just a substitute for those), staying with those that suit her taste for as long as she’s entertained and leaving as soon as she’s bored or got what she wanted. she falls in love with people easily, but she falls out of love as quickly.

she can be a little sly, a little cunning, but all cats are.

when she’s working, mei is a little more flirty. a little more confident in herself, she walks around like she knows the effect that she has on people (and really she does), mei becomes a little more proactive with social interactions if it means that yet another patron will come back to see her show. she’s less sweet and more sassy because people find being witty charming. she’s a little happier too, or at least that’s how she believes.

there’s this too, being very good at hiding things she doesn’t want people to see and she doesn’t like to open up too much about her personal stories so some might see her as a little mysterious, but if they’re watching enough, if for some reason they’re close enough, they can see through cracks a girl who hasn’t completely gotten over her father’s death so she still clings to small things they used to do together, to his dream, to the picture of him she has at her apartment. a girl whose eyes get a little too blank when watching fathers having warm moments with their daughters, a girl who sometimes still wakes up in the middle of the night with tears on her eyes yearning for a time that won’t come back, for a person who won’t return. she’s good at burying all of that most of the time, but it doesn’t mean it’s perfect.

HISTORY: tw: parental loss tw: injuries tw: blood

dad knows you’re not a normal kid because normal kids don’t have to hide their cat ears under hats and wrap their torso with their tails under their shirts. normal kids don’t have their dads trim their nails every two days because they keep getting long and if they get too long, it’s easy to hurt someone. normal kids don’t have teeth so sharp that more than once you cut your bottom lip or your tongue until you learn how to be careful with them. normal kids don’t have to learn how to tone down their senses so being in public is a little more tolerable. normal kids don’t feel like their heads will split open whenever they hear thunder or any as loud noise. you know you’re not a normal kid, but it’s ok, because other kids don’t know that, because dad tells you’re special, because dad tells you that you’re special but it doesn’t mean you can’t get normal things.

that’s why you’re only homeschooled until middle school. you get a special permission to wear a hat at all times during school and even if it’s painful on your ears, dad still massages them every night before you go to bed so it’s ok. you get friends that don’t mind your caps but you also get enemies that do mind your caps but they never do anything about it unless a mean remark here and there so it’s easy to ignore it.

dad has a dream. it’s a peculiar dream but you support him anyway. you’re thirteen and you see how excited he is about so you don’t see any harm in it.

things get a little hard for a while because dad sells everything he can for that dream. you end up living with a friend of his until you two can find another place to stay. you don’t question why that friend of dad can see your ears and your tail when not even your best friend can, because dad always knows best, right? dad still massages your ears every night but now you also massage his shoulders in return because they always seem too tense. you try to help around the house as much as you can and you learn things like cooking and house chores and there’s only a few things that make you happier than dad’s face when he tries your food and praises you for it.

{ there’s also this person who comes around sometimes. their visits are always short and it’s about a conversation with dad. you don’t like them because dad always seems upset after their visits, always hugs you too tightly as you watch that person leave with what seems to be pity in their eyes. they still always wave you goodbye, but you never wave back }  

you’re fifteen when dad makes his dream of opening a burlesque club come true. it’s not the most luxurious of town, but it’s still charming, warm and welcoming. dad seems happy so you’re happy too, ends up getting friendly with most of the workers even if he’s always lightly scolding you for showing up at a place like that when you’re still underage. not that you listen because that might as well be your second home. it’s also around this time that you start having interest in dancing and dad tells you that it’s part of his dream too, to see you dancing on a stage someday, maybe go to university for it, have a proper education for it, more than the small academy that he afford for you now.

until you’re seventeen and everything changes.

it starts a year earlier, when dad starts showing up with a black eye and bruises over his body, with cut lips and swollen cheeks. you try your best to bandage him up even if he still refuses to tell you what happened so you trust him, as you always have, that he’ll tell you when things get too bad. it starts when you catch this mean looking man getting out of dad’s workplace, followed by others mean looking men, knuckles stained with blood and a too much proud smirk on his lips, but seemingly too busy on his own head to realize the school girl staring at him. you get inside and dad’s nose is bleeding, his demeanour panicked while he asks if you are hurt anywhere, if any man talked to you on your way to the burlesque, if you’ve seen anything strange. you tell him no even if just to calm him down.

it ends just before new year, almost a month later of your 17th birthday,  just before the day of the parade dad promised he’d bring you to last year. it ends with you in a too small chair, a policeman’s coat on your shoulders while they offer you empty words of comfort. it ends with dad’s dream being closed for good along with yours. it ends with you standing in front of a grave, more empty words of condolences and the person comes back again, flight tickets on their hands and a promise of a new home.

you stare blankly at it. blinks. then accepts it.

{ it’s hard to deal with loss when you’ve never lost anything. you still keep wearing hats to go to school even if there’s no one to massage your cat ears anymore. you keep hiding your tail even if you meet other people who are like you or even more peculiar, because it’s something familiar in this unfamiliar country with an unfamiliar language. you apply for dance major in university and starts working in the burlesque club as soon as you’re old enough, begs the owner to accept you because you’re a stupid girl who clings to a future that you’ll never truly have. you tell yourself it’s ok because it makes loss less painful, it’s ok because it makes happiness look more believable in you. }

PANTHEON: egyptian CHILD OF: bastet POWERS: enhanced agility, speed and cat like dexterity. also has enhanced senses of sight, hearing and smell; besides cat features like ears, tail, sharpened canines and claws.

STRENGTHS: can hear, see (especially in the dark) and smell better than an average person; is more agile (always lands on her feet) and faster than an average person; charming.

WEAKNESSES: easily gets headache due to her enhanced senses, easily scared especially by loud noises, is lazy and easily dozes off whenever she lets her guard down no matter the position she is in.

Although clients may involve see specialists for a range of causes, low back aches, knee pain, and overuse injuries are amongst one of the most usual complaints.

3 ways nurses are using holistic healing in patient care

Holistic healing methods are increasing in popularity

Miracle fruits. Herbal teas. In recent decades, these have been the images of holistic medicine. That’s no longer the case.

With more patients facing limited solutions to their health problems, many nurses, whether certified in holistic care or not, are exploring alternative methods to complement modern solutions to relieve pain or rid a patient’s body of disease.

While modern medicine focuses on the causes of illness and disease and treating symptoms, the root of holistic healing is considering the whole patient. Any patient can benefit from holistic nursing. For example, a car accident victim may be experiencing trauma that impairs their psychosocial health and even leads to spiritual distress. Holistic nurses will evaluate the whole person and direct care individually for the patient that will facilitate the patient’s innate healing abilities.

Holistic nursing is on the rise and helping patients across the globe. Here are three popular methods holistic nurses are now using to improve modern care.

Essential oil market expands

With the essential oil market expected to reach $11.67 billion by 2022, the use of herbs like lavender, peppermint and eucalyptus is expanding throughout the nation and beyond. It’s clear more and more people are embracing the power of essential oils and aromatherapy.

Different types of oils can treat a variety of ailments such as sore throats, earaches and bladder infections, or alleviate ongoing symptoms of illnesses such as asthma, insomnia, anxiety and depression. Lavender, for example, has been proven to aid in relieving stress and promote sleep. When combined with peppermint, lavender can also reduce migraine pain. Eucalyptus is known to reduce coughing or sinusitis, especially when infused in a hot, steamy shower.

“The field of aromatherapy is expansive and ranges from using essential oils to aid in wound healing to using them as a behavior modifier in dementia care,” Linda Weihbrecht, BSN, RN, LMT, CCAP, said. She added that aromatherapy goals could include reducing stress, stimulating the immune system, promoting healing, and reducing disease symptoms.

Hydrotherapy a centuries-old method

Instances of aquatic therapy can be traced back to 1700 B.C. “It’s based on the idea that water benefits the skin and might treat a range of conditions from acne to pain, swelling and anxiety,” said Laura Newcomer. Hydrotherapists believe water therapy can also boost a patient’s immune system. Hydrotherapy has been successfully proven to control pain relief, particularly in burn treatments.

Watsu, a form of hydrotherapy developed in the 1980s, combines massage, Shiatsu, muscle stretching and joint mobilization, all performed in warm, chest-deep water, to treat patients suffering from arthritis, chronic pain and improve soft tissue mobility.

As a practice that was once limited to more aesthetic treatments, aquatic therapies are now embraced by senior living communities for its effective treatment of joint pain, severe physical impairments, and edema.

“The number one reason senior living communities should consider using aquatic therapy is how the principles of water benefit the patient,” Kathleen Kristoff, occupational therapist, said. “Buoyancy, the warmth of the water and hydrostatic pressure are three components that allow physical and occupational therapists to make progress with people who otherwise could not progress on land.” From a benefits perspective, Kristoff believes aquatic therapy can impact everything from a patient’s mobility to their activities of daily living.

Acupressure can ease pain, reduce opioid use

The sense of touch is a powerful healing tool and often used in many holistic therapies. Similar to the centuries-old practice of acupuncture only without the needles, acupressure is a therapy that uses hands, fingers and even elbows to activate acupoints throughout the body.

In a study conducted by a group of physicians from Taipei Medical University, researchers faced the dilemma of successfully treating postoperative pain resulting from surgical trauma. Although opioids are typically used to treat pain, doctors recognize that there are some undesirable side effects, such as the possible risk of addiction. In this study, doctors evaluated the effectiveness of acupressure and acupuncture in treating postoperative pain. Their findings indicated that certain modes of acupuncture improved postoperative pain on the first day after surgery and reduced opioid use.

Whether nurses rely on modern medicine or incorporate the combination of essential oils, massage or hydrotherapy to treat the whole patient, the melding of holistic and modern medicine brings promise to an ailing public and a transformative treatment for those in need of long-term and post-acute care.

Because holistic healing methods can be incorporated in every aspect of the healthcare industry, nursing schools throughout the nation have incorporated holistic medicine into their curriculum. There are currently 13 nursing schools in the nation that have been endorsed by the American Holistic Nurses Credentialing Corporation, specializing in training holistic nurses. A nurse becomes Holistic Nurse Board Certified after working full time as a Nurse for one year, 48 CNE hours in Holistic Nursing Theory, Research, Practice, or related topics, and passing an exam administered by the AHNCC.

KMT leader’s visit shows Taiwanese a viable option: experts

hongkongperfectescort.com The ongoing visit to the Chinese mainland of the leader of Taiwan's Kuomintang (KMT) Party will reaffirm the one-China policy and show Taiwan people an option in boosting their island's staggering economy when the approval rating of their leader drops, experts said.Hung Hsiu-chu arrived in Nanjing, East China's Jiangsu Province and is scheduled to visit Nanjing and Beijing from Sunday to Thursday.Before leaving Taipei, she told reporters on Sunday that her trip aims to promote stability and peace across the Taiwan Straits, the Xinhua News Agency reported on Sunday.The KMT firmly opposes "Taiwan independence" and hopes to maintain cross-Straits peace, she said, adding that it is her party's consensus."Hung's visit to the Chinese mainland and meeting with the Communist Party of China (CPC) leaders will reaffirm the KMT Party's firm stance on the one-China policy, considering there was some opposition within the party after its defeat in Taiwan's leadership election in May," Liu Xiangping, head of the Institute of Taiwan Studies at Nanjing University, told the Global Times.The reaffirmation will also show the Taiwan people another way to enhance their lives, especially with many of them dissatisfied with island leader Tsai Ing-wen's economic policies, Hu Benliang, an associate research fellow at the Institute of Taiwan Studies of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times.The bi-monthly poll conducted by Taiwan Indicators Survey Research, showed that 48 percent disapprove of her performance, an increase of two percentage points from the first half of October, compared to 35 percent who approve, Taiwan-based Central News Agency reported.Thousands of tourism industry workers staged a rally in Taiwan in early September, demanding the government address a slump in the mainland visitors following the deterioration in cross-Straits ties after the election, AFP reported.On Monday, Hung paid tribute to KMT founder Sun Yat-sen at his mausoleum in Nanjing. November 12 marks the 150th birth anniversary of Sun.Sun, who dedicated his life to rejuvenating the Chinese nation and improving people's lives, is a bond between the CPC and KMT, inspiring both parties to promote peace and development, which cannot be fully realized without reunification across the Straits, Liu said.

Acupressure more effective than physical therapy

Acupressure more effective than physical therapy We all know Acupressure has been around for some 5,000 years now and those of us involved in Holistic and wellness remain convinced that the procedures encompassed within this sphere are more efficacious than physical therapy. Every living being has a life force, or energy, called qi or chi (pronounced "chee"). When this energy, which runs along meridians, is in balance and flowing freely, the body is in a state of health. Acupoints tap into the the major energy pathways of the body When this energy is blocked or deficient, illness can result. These energy disruptions are often the result of stress or injury. It is believed that acupressure causes the brain to release endorphins. Endorphins play an important role in immune function, pain relief, stress reduction, and slowing the aging process. Lower back pain has long been the bain of the modern world not only in lost man hours but also because of the numerous side effects, complications and nuances of lower back pain complaints. Further studies now confirm the benefits of acupressure over physical therapy. Albeit that the studies failed to take into account functional status and disability as recommended by most low back pain researchers the results are still very meaningful and relevant. In February 2006 a randomized controlled trial took place at The National Taiwan University in Taipei. 129 patients with chronic low back pain received acupressure or physical therapy for 1 month. Primary endpoints were self-administered Chinese versions of standard outcome measures for low back pain (Roland and Morris disability questionnaire) at baseline, after treatment, and at 6-month follow-up. After treatment, the mean total Roland and Morris disability questionnaire score was significantly lower in the acupressure group than in the physical therapy group regardless of the difference in absolute score or mean change from baseline. Compared with physical therapy, acupressure was associated with an 89% reduction in significant disability and that improvement was maintained at 6-month follow-up. Study limitations include a confounding psychological effect of therapy; loss of 15.5% of patients to follow-up at 6 months and effectiveness of any manipulation therapy dependent on the therapist's technique and experience. Participants were aged 18 to 81 years. Exclusion criteria were pregnancy and contraindication to acupressure. 64 patients were randomized to acupressure and 65 to physical therapy. Conclusive or inconclusive the results still point towards the undeniable and positive aspects of acupressure and holistic healing. On a more lighter note Acupressure has also been cited as a new aid for sleepy students. 39 student volunteers found that those who were taught to self-administer acupressure to stimulation points on their legs, feet, hands and heads were less likely to drowse during class. The acupressure consisted of light tapping of fingers or using thumbs or forefingers to lightly massage the stimulation points. It was conceded that more study is needed in relation to acupressure and the effect on human alertness. Looking further into the positives might this self administered acupressure also be a consideration for children with ADHD contra Ritalin! http://fighteraccess.com
