The endless sick | |

Ugh, I'm so tired of being sick. I took a trip to the US for | |
a weekend and brought back the flu. It raged for a few days and | |
then settled into my lungs. Now it's nearly a month later and I'm | |
still working up all the crap inside me. | |
Cough Cough Cough | |
I felt like an extra big dummy on Wednesday, though. I was talking | |
to someone about the shakuhachi [0] and I sent them a link to some | |
practice I had recorded a couple years ago [1]. The name of the | |
recording was Breathing Exercises 2. And that's when it hit me! | |
I used shakuhachi practice to strengthen my lungs and recover | |
after covid. Why haven't I been doing it after this stupid flu? | |
Complete idiot, this guy right here. | |

[1] Breathing Exercises 2 | |
Well, I've been good about putting in practice every day since | |
then and while I'm still coughing my chest has started feeling | |
more in control. The amount of phlegm I'm working up in | |
increasing. Hopefully I'll feel good again in time for whatever | |
next trip I need to take so I can get sick again. |
