Repost from @wireswildliferescue⁠
⁠
With conditions forecast to deteriorate again this week PLEASE consider providing water 💧 for wildlife. This is especially important in areas near fire zones.⁠
⁠
Provide containers of water around your yard, ideally in the shade. Remember to keep the containers clean, refresh frequently and be sure to change the water daily.⁠
⁠
Containers of different depths are good for different animals and placed at different heights and locations.⁠
⁠
Place sticks or a stone in the containers to act as a ramp for exhausted smaller animals a way out if they fall in.⁠
⁠
You can also place some containers around the perimeter of your property on the fence line to provide water for reptiles.⁠
⁠
This has the added advantage of deterring reptiles from approaching houses to access water from taps and other sources closer to your house.⁠
⁠
Keeping your cats and dogs indoors, helps wildlife that may be vulnerable to predators while in a weakened state.⁠
⁠
Provide shade with a garden umbrella or other cover over distressed animals while waiting for a rescuer to arrive.⁠
⁠
Gently mist distressed animals with a very light spray of water or place a sprinkler nearby if possible.⁠
⁠
Check pools and skimmer boxes twice a day for wildlife that may have fallen in and provide a tethered rope or platform as a means of escape.⁠
⁠
If you have found an animal in distress you can offer it a shallow dish of water to drink from. If it is too weak you can use an eyedropper to gently put a few drops on its lips or beak. Squirting water from bottles can cause choking and is not recommended.

And that's a wrap in clinic for the year. We have loved being part of your health and wellness journey and wish you a happy and restful break. ⁠
⁠
We'll be getting some rest over the break ourselves so we're nice and fresh back in clinic come the new year.⁠

Flash back to around this time five years ago when I volunteered for the @acupuncturereliefproject in Nepal. I spent two months living in a little mud hut in rural Nepal with our basic clinic set up to service the local farmers.⁠
⁠
The flowers and red powder on my forehead are a cultural ritual in Nepal that represent a symbol of good luck and celebration. They were a token of their thanks and farewell as we were finishing up our post in the remote clinic.⁠
⁠
Check out The Acupuncture Relief Project's website to read all the volunteers stories and clinical experiences in the amazing culturally rich country of Nepal.⁠
⁠
For those interested fellow Acupuncturists looking to explore the world and gain a diverse clinical experience it's worth checking out this worthwhile cause. ⁠

UNWIND⁠
Go on, give yourself permission to unravel, maybe even fall apart a little. It’s been a big year after all. ⁠
It takes a lot of energy to keep everything tightly wrapped up. If we can shake things up, let things go, move through the possible discomfort; we can feel lighter, free and unwound.⁠
⁠
REST⁠
After all that unwinding we can feel weary, drained and exhausted. Give yourself a moment. A moment to recover. A moment of stillness, without to do lists, without places to be – to just be.⁠
A bath. A slow walk. A yoga class. A book. Sleeping in. An afternoon nap. Cooking delicious nutritious food. Nourish your soul.⁠
⁠
RESET⁠
What do you need more of this coming year? What could you let go of? Who do you want to spend most of your time with?⁠
Prioritize the things that matter; to you and those you love. And don’t wait until next December to do all these steps again.⁠
Peace, love and blessings.⁠
Happy holidays x⁠
