Shining the light on improving Quality of Life for Humans and Animals and related topics. Inspired by Marie-France Muller's Dien Cham/Yoga/Chair Yoga/Reflexology/ Trauma-Awareness/Sensitivity. (“Your practice is important part of your day," said our facilitator. I silently agreed and added "and if I did not find a way to love it, how would I keep it up?" This may or may not apply to you, of course)

Some reflexes to possibly connect to during hand washing 1-spine reflex along outside of thumb 2-head/neck/lymphatics reflexes all the fingers 3-lung reflexes on the balls of hands 4-digestive underneath 3 5-more lymphatics/reproductive wrist (top of hand more lymphatics not shown here) |
It has been heart breaking, whatever you may think, feel, looking at it from any angle.
- Doing research for this article, looking for a hand washing instructional video to share about, I came across the world's hand washing ambassador Dr. Myriam Sidibe.
Do yourself a favor and watch her Ted Talk. No, it's a must.

She made my day on International Woman’s Day when I started working on this post.
- "From within Unilever, she has created a movement to change the hand-washing behaviors of one billion people, the single biggest hygiene behavior change program in the world, and was one of the brains behind the multi awards winner UN recognized Global Handwashing Day – now celebrated in over 100 countries." Here she is: Dr. Myriam Sidibe’s TED Talk.
- Belatedly Happy Woman’s Day to both and All Women.
Focusing on the positive while dealing with this crisis, good bye 👋 hand shake, hello 👋 hand washing every 20 minutes, sanitizer, and also masks and perhaps some hand reflexology to counteract the stress and explore other aspects of our hands.
- hand washing and
- a microcosm/representation of the entire body according to Hand Reflexology. This has been posted on the ICR fab page and my own page. https://www.facebook.com/ICRREFLEXOLOGY/photos/a.1476454895915151/2787527501474544/?type=3
