I sit here in the first rush of grief... Linda and Debbie called me just this hour— Weeping and heart broken to lose you; Grateful your suffering was short Grateful I got to hold you close last Monday and stare down the scary angel together; Little did we know he was already in the room! You said, thoughtfully, “Oh I’ll be here next summer... “ What is it about you, Judy, that makes you such a precious luminosity? Such a giant among women? Yes, it’s true, though I know you’d never see it that way. I want to say it is Courage. You never dodged any charging reality, however hard or sad, but took it unflinchingly, Letting your intimate knowledge of pain and loss create in you a rare compassion. Always ready to recognize instantly the suffering and need of another, and to step forward to do the kindest thing. Like when Daniel Westheimer was born and you dropped your whole life to go out of town and care for them all. Ursula LeGuin described you in her poem about artists,* And it is perfect, although I never knew you to paint or play an instrument. But the courage of the truth-seer is you, Judy. What do they do, the singers, tale-writers, dancers, painters, shapers, makers? They go there with empty hands, into the gap between. They come back with things in their hands. They go silent and come... --- ### Ellen's Writing about Psychological Wellness - Published: 2012-08-10 - Modified: 2012-08-17 - URL: https://www.lloydhouse.com/ellens-writing-about-psychological-wellness/ Contents On Insomnia Holiday Visiting Woes Unsuspected Dangers of Holiday Feasting Mental Health and--of all things--HOUSEKEEPING! 11/16/08 Tips for a Good Night’s Sleep If you are reading this article I don’t have to tell you how insomnia can wreak your whole day. You already know. You may also know some of the tips on Sleep Hygiene I have collected over 35 years of practice as a clinical psychologist. And if you have others, I want to hear from you. Does it seem obvious? Yet many people do not stop to think that their ease in falling asleep and staying restfully asleep may be related to the safety, cleanliness, and beauty of their bedroom sleep environment. For many, the bedroom is a multi-purpose room including library, A/V centers, and computer work stations. Not good. For best sleep, make your bedroom dedicated to sleeping and making love only. Oh, all right, plus light recreational and pleasurable reading... No thrillers with adrenalin rushes, please. How many people watch the local news at 11 PM? And then, with sirens still echoing in their minds, they try to go to sleep. Try for a week speding the last two hours before sleep without TV, without any upsetting or high-effort activities. I am confident that anyone with sleep troubles will notice a distinct improvement. Then there is caffein. Again and again my clients have found that abstaining from all coffee, tea, caffeinated soda and chocolate, even that morning cup, even de-caffeinated coffee, even de-caffeinated coffee only... --- ### Ellen Writing about the Alexander Technique - Published: 2012-08-10 - Modified: 2025-05-23 - URL: https://www.lloydhouse.com/ellen-writing-about-the-alexander-technique/ 8/22/13 POSTURE BREAKTHROUGH LET YOUR BUTT BE HUGE! BY Ellen Just this summer I have made a stunning breakthrough in how I feel, look and be. thank you, Kristen Fryer, Alexander Teacher, (See LINK) and her discovery of Christine Kent (see LINK). We all, especially we women, have thought our butts too big, and also thought that 'good posture' meant tucking your tailbone down and under, and flattening your belly with strong abs. This is bone-deep conditioning. Still in the grip of this at age 73 after some 12 years of Alexander work. Until this. Let your tail extend back. that will bring y our full lumbar curve... a good thing, not lordosis. Not only does this restore your pelvic organs to their wholesome positions (got prolapse? got urinary incontinence? ), and your hip joint to its proper angle (got hip replacement? ) but it gives your ribcage that powerful 'floor' on which to rest in errect placement. Once the tail goes back, the lumbar curve restored, there is a feeling of real power that fills my body. The ribcage just naturally rises, the shoulders then are free to hang on the back of the rib cage, the heart 'opens', the breathing is freed, and I feel like a million bucks! Try this at home. Standing. But also sitting! Haven't you always found it a chore to sit up straight while sitting down? I have. If you don't get a revolution in how you feel and look, come in for... --- ### Drumming Circle Monthly - Published: 2012-08-10 - Modified: 2013-11-04 - URL: https://www.lloydhouse.com/drumming-circle-monthly/ AFTER MANY FAITHFUL YEARS, Jackie Millay has retired as convener.

It is distinguished for its fine architecture in the Richardson style and for its having been the residence of Dr. John Uri Lloyd, a world-renowned pharmacist and chemist as well as a successful novelist. (It is a common belief that historic designation entails limitations on what one may do with the property but this is not the case. ) The house was designed by James McLaughlin, arguably the best local architect of the time (he designed the original Art Museum in Eden Park), for a coal and coke merchant, Solomon P. Kinneon, in 1888. The Lloyds moved here following WWI and did extensive remodeling including hot water radiators in marble lined wells, and electrification. Five full bathrooms and a half bath on the first floor were lined with white porcelain tile. They also built an extension on the north side for a modern kitchen. Following Dr. Lloyd’s death in 1938 the property passed to Walter and Margie Preston. Walter was a chemist for Proctor and Gamble. They had one surviving child, Anne Custis Preston. Walter died c. 1950 and Margie listed the house for sale, meanwhile renting it to groups of young bachelors from P. & G. They had numerous large parties, we are told. In 1957 my... --- ### Residential Spaces Shared at the Lloyd House - Published: 2012-08-05 - Modified: 2025-05-23 - URL: https://www.lloydhouse.com/residential-spaces-available-at-the-lloyd-house/ Imagine living in a castle!
