July Blog Carnival: Migraines & Spirituality
Thanks as always to Diana Lee for hosting a fabulous Headache & Migraine Blog Carnival for most of the months of this year. It almost makes having chronic headaches and migraines worth while (almost, mind). As you can tell from this posts title, this months blg carny focused on “Migraines & Spirituality“, although anyone experiencing a head pain from all demoniminations and sects are invited.
My Top Picks
Personally, I feel that this is one of the strongest carnivals yet of the series. There’s nothing like trying to attach some meaning to your suffering in order to help you bear the pain. Although not all of the posts dealt with the specific topic, they did tie in and are interesting reads in and of their own right.
The best title for this month’s blog carnival goes to Rain Gem for Visualization Techniques for Migraines, Headaches, Pain and Increasing Breast Size. For some people, the female breast is certainly a religion. For females like me, they are merely twin sources of headaches. Check out the fluffy kitten picture.
The best common sense for those with migraines goes to Rhymes with Migraine’s On Migraines and a Path to Harmony. Don’t let the title fool you. It’s a very down to earth post that probably could apply to a lot of people today.
The Me, Me, Me award goes to my own Could Migraines Try to Help Us Cope with Stress? from one of the other blogs I write for, Where We Relax. Remember, if you are looking for a name for a band, why not try Comatose Locusts?
And the best post that sums it all up is yet another brilliantly written post from Megan at Free My Brain from Migraine Pain called God Grant Me the Serenity to Accept the Migraines I Cannot Change.
If I didn’t mention your post here, it’s not because it was poorly written or anything like that. It just didn’t catch my fancy today. Not your fault — mine.
Next Month
The theme for August’s Blog Carnival is yet another good topic, “Handling People who Don’t Get Migraines or Headaches”. Entries are due Friday, August 8th. You don’t get paid, but you do get mega publicity and access to information you might otherwise miss. Your blog does not have to be about head pains in particular, but the post should be related to headaches or migraines in some fashion.
See you next month!

Currently I write for pay on four blogs and then I have a personal blog which doesn’t make any money.

Thanks Rena, I think you’re brilliant, too! And I loved reading about the locusts. I’ve been compared to a lot of things in my time, but that was a first for locusts!
