According to Wikipedia ….

SLACKLINING is a balance sport which utilizes nylon webbing stretched tight between two anchor points. Slacklining is distinct from tightrope walking in that the line is not held rigidly taut; it is instead dynamic, stretching and bouncing like a large rubber band. The line’s tension can be adjusted to suit the user and different types of dynamic webbing can be used to achieve a variety of feats. The line itself is flat, due to the nature of webbing, thus keeping the slacker’s footing from rolling as would be the case with an ordinary rope.

Shirley Churchill again graciously worked with Irene for 2+ hours this morning on physiology techniques designed to wake up the kidneys.  Irene’s energy was up most of the day with the nausea remaining at a low and tolerable roar.  It was a relaxing day on the beautiful Monterey Bay.

Irene’s journey of faith is metaphoric to slacklining because the journey is spiritually dynamic, unusually stretching and emotionally bouncing like a large rubber band.

As Irene “balances” the daily challenges of “spiritual slacklining” we’re grateful for your continued support and confident that she’ll make it safely to other side.
