Recently I've been waking up at 5 am. That gives me 2 hours—2!—for myself in the morning. Ahhhh. One morning I woke up at 6 instead of 5. It really messed with my rhythm. Also, I didn't get to dig deep into my soul that morning and I think that—exacerbated by poor-quality sleep the night … Continue reading Magical Mornings

This past week I traveled for the first time in almost 2 years. Who ever thought in this day and age going on an airplane would feel so special?

Remembering with Your HEART

April 7, 2021April 6, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ 1 Comment

People often tell me I have a good memory. Even as a kid they told me that. Well, currently, it comes out when I speak to a patient during a follow up call and all of a sudden remember small details that they told me during the initial session a month or more back. I … Continue reading Remembering with Your HEART

When this pandemic got real and heavy social distancing measures were put in place, I was having flashbacks of how life was after my father suddenly passed away. I felt like the world stopped (in this case, it literally did) and I wanted to take a moment to just reprioritize and rethink what life was … Continue reading Pandemic and Productivity

Ever since I was a pre-teen, people told me I was so much like my mother. I looked like her. I talked like her. I laughed like her. I was nice like her. I always greeted these comments with a mixture of pride as well as abashment. I was honored to resemble my mother, whom … Continue reading Being Your Own Person AND Your Mother’s Daughter
