There are no coincidences, right? I’m a ‘pitchman’ – sellin’ pots ‘n pans on a roadshow – you know, the geeky guy with the mic on his head badgering innocent shoppers.
I do it to make money to make mirrors and hit the road again… .
So a few short weeks ago I was workin’ it in Kelowna and a well-dressed and sympathetic fellow belly’d up to my booth, ordered, straight-up, a small brace of fry pans and we got to talking.
It turns out he’s the director of an in-patient rehab house for adolescents called ‘NEURVANA’.
They use leading edge brain-optimization technology that focuses on, you guessed it, ‘mirror neurons’ in the brain to enable these kids to re-process anxieties and leave behind a jumble of disorders which includes eating disorders, ADHD, addictions, compulsions, depression.
In short we are barking up the same tree and were both as amazed to encounter each other as we were certain that there are, really, no coincidences in life.
He came back at closing time that night with his wife and partner and 8 or 10 of his kids and I threw a tablecloth over the pots and pans, turned down the burners and gave the kids a demonstration of mirror therapy and we all talked about what it addresses in the brain and how it cures and the palpable parallels with the treatment that David and his wife Sue are so successfully implementing at NEURVANA – check out his action here at : http://www.neurvana.ca/
We all had a group hug (me a couple tears and lots of gratitude) and the kids presented me with this – which I’ll try’n attach here. 100 bucks. I promised them I would hold onto it til I got to Laos and that it would buy them 20 mirrors for Laotian amps.
No coincidences and full-speed ahead!
