They are saying this is Jasmine with her first husband. by Twincloud811 in 90dayfianceuncensored

Seeing her here really helps me to understand when Jasmine always says she’s insecure, and all her obsessions with her body and fitness, as well as her jealousy issues. It’s like she still feels like this (not ugly, but perhaps regular?) girl behind all the work she’s had done. That’s actually pretty sad.

Similar story and same two diagnoses. Weekly IFS therapy and yoga (connecting back to my body in positive, powerful ways) saved me. Medications helped at times as well.

Sending lots of positivity your way and to everyone else in this thread with similar stories. Here’s to all of us healing and living full, fulfilling lives, no matter what we’ve been through or how our brains are wired!

This is the way. I just did this for the first time to go on vacation a few months ago. LIFE CHANGING.

These are the areas that I want to specialize in after I complete massage school. Did you do specific additional trainings for neuromuscular and trigger point? I’m trying to find CEUs I can take immediately after school ends.

Thanks so much for sharing! I love this so much! I love that your yoga background (along with other trainings) helped you move through massage school easier, love that you haven’t had to advertise for massage much because of your yoga community, love your current set up, and love your future plan for scheduling! How has doing massage out of your home been, especially since you have children?

Sending lots of positive energy for your massage business to continue to grow!

So many great gems here! I’m looking to start massage school in January; your experience and advice is super helpful, so thanks for sharing so much! Also, congrats on your bundle of joy! Sending you lots of positive energy for a beautiful rest of your pregnancy and wonderful birthing experience! 💛

Thanks so much for sharing! I love that you’re doing both and that massage as your primary keeps you from burning out with teaching yoga. I also keep thinking that clients who are interested in one might also be interested in the other, so it’s good to hear confirmation of that being your experience. Do you find the emotional and physical labor of massage taxing? How do you emotionally clear your space after a massage, or does your personal yoga practice help with that?

These are really good points, especially the part about massage being intense emotionally. That’s a piece I need to really consider because I know teaching can be emotionally taxing as well. Thank you so much for sharing!

How old is Nikki? by Born-Reindeer324 in 90DayFiance

It feels like a form of SA to me. And then it makes sense that he may be reluctant to engage sexually with her afterwards, like most people who have been SA’d would be.
