alternative medicine: moxa is popular among young people!

a couple years ago, at the recommendation of my sister, acupuncturist and moxibustion enthusiast, i got into burning moxa to help with pain. i use pre-packaged moxa; just stick and burn.

i usually use moxa on my arms:

trying a new insomnia therapy:

it’s a little tricky to pull off, and i think i need to give myself a strong pedicure before i’ll feel the full effect. but i do enjoy the effects of moxa, if not for the thrill of applying burning stickers to myself, then for the marijuana-esque aroma that has passersby wondering, “where’s the party?”

you can find moxa at alternative medicine and Asian markets. highly recommended!
