IT HAS BEEN A WHILE

It is six months since my Botox injection and I am beginning to suspect that it is indeed the mind that plays a big part in how my voice sounds. At four months it was only when I started thinking about the length of time since the last injection that gradually then I noticed difficulty in speaking in noisy environments such as in a restaurant or car. Had I prompted the thought that the Botox would be wearing off? I have become watchful of the thoughts that enter my mind!


There are a few occasions when my voice feels strained but more often than not I enjoy being able to say what I want when I want! I am very pleased with my voice! There is greater power in being positive than remaining at the mercy of the medical profession who still do not know the cause of SD. I refuse to accept that I have no control over my voice. I know that getting a good night sleep is important as well as avoiding stressful situations - be kind to yourself!

I began blogging during my Christmas holiday and when I see how little I’ve blogged over the months I can see how consuming work has become but I must admit that a good deal of time has also been devoted to my spiritual growth by listening to the Eckhart Tolle and Oprah Winfrey - A New Earth worlds biggest classroom series at www.oprah.com .
