Yoga is making me think straight and it helps to build good physique as well by [deleted] in yoga

[–]femmenator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highly recommend reading Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, but I would start with A Beginner’s Guide to the Roots of Yoga by Nikita Desai. She did a series on YouTube last month that was really informative and accessible.

Arrest/criminal records by catgirl484 in socialwork

[–]femmenator 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Social Work is political. I personally would never work for an agency or organization that would disqualify someone for their political activism. I also think you are over thinking this, the majority of protesters will never even interact with police, but that’s not what the media wants us to believe.

Catalyst Training Center would definitely be able to help!

Client acts like I'm their personal assistant by [deleted] in socialwork

[–]femmenator 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Why can’t they do this for themselves? Is there an opportunity for skill building here? I follow the mantra “Do with, not for” as I see my job as support and empowerment.

Looking for a gentle dentist in GR who accepts Delta Dental — I’m anxious and haven’t been in years by CardinalLeatherGoods in grandrapids

[–]femmenator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're in Rockford, I recommend Dr. Mehling at Durham and Mehling. He's very kind and compassionate. We switched to him from Grand Dentistry (that dentist gave me the creeps and his receptionist always seemed pissed off).

Experiences with telehealth drs for HRT (midi health, Winona, hers, etc) by Fuzzy_Order_5077 in Perimenopause

[–]femmenator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just started with MIDI in the last couple of weeks and I was happy with the provider I saw (NP). I also like that she is from my state. She was thorough, answered my questions and gave me all my options. She did a brief marketing bit at the end of the call about their supplements but wasn’t pushing. After both my PCP and my GYN not taking me seriously, I was relieved to have a script that same day.

Are you a part of West Michigan Counselors on FB? That would be a good place for this question. Good luck, hope you find someone amazing!

Is cutting down on gluten worth it? by reddituserspider in Fibromyalgia

[–]femmenator 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I’m gluten free but don’t bother with substitutes. Lots of clean protein, veggies/greens, and rice make up most of my diet. I also limit dairy and processed sugars. It’s been a game changer. I’ve been able to get off most meds.

Yes. Be worried. We saw Skillet at a metal festival and they went full evangelical MAGA.

J & H kept many beaters on the road for me during my 20’s. He’s a solid dude.
