I am toying with some ideas on how to make a living without having to be a corporate whore. No one is biting anyway, even though I've applied to a million places. The good thing is that I am at least interviewing for senior positions; the bad thing is that they are not hiring me - because I've been out of the market for so long. I call discrimination.
That's ok. Let them hire some chump that looks good on paper but makes bad decisions and has no ethics. I have seen it dozens of times in my field. I will not change my ways to compete with scumbags. Damn the money is good though.
I have always backburnered something that actually felt right to me. I thought it was too flaky to do and perhaps would not be taken seriously. But Frigg got me thinking about it during her visit. She reminded me about how much happier I am when I am doing things more holistically. And this cold is beating the snot out of me - literally. I am annoyed that I have to take drugs for it.
Yes, your Arty is a bit of a hippie. I know, I know...shocker.
I actually know Reiki, though I am not formally trained. I dabble with herbs (and I do not mean weed). Scoff if you want to; all I know is it made people feel tons better. When people ask me how I know how to do things - I'm like "I just do". Maybe I should be doing something with those gifts.
I was talking to Mac about it the other day and he was way supportive. I plan on getting certified to be a Holistic Health Practitioner so I can be full on legit. Learning about natural medicine intrigues me. I would love to take a completely natural approach to medications. At the rate I am going, my liver will give out. F-that. So many drugs are full of toxins. Our poor livers. I also want to learn herbology and actually make tinctures. Anyway, the whole process will help me get healthy, I am sure; and then I will be able to help others. I could even consult. Many health centers have someone like that on staff. I am not sure where I am going with it, but I am going to go somewhere. I suppose CA is a good place for that as well. Reason for everything.
Oooo, will that make me a witch doctor? Awesome.
Except I won't be scamming anyone. Isn't that what witch doctors were said to do? Yeah, I don't play like that.
