After my husband died, my best friends excluded me from our annual trip to Japan. I went anyway. When their trip fell apart, they all frantically tried to reach me. I did not pick up the phone. For ten years, Mark and I traveled with the same five couples. Every year, somewhere new. And every year, I planned everything. The houses, the restaurants, the flights, the little details nobody noticed unless they went wrong. That was my role. Mark died in March. Eight months later, the group chose Japan. I had already started planning. Ryokans, train schedules, restaurants, all of it. Then the message came from Melissa. “Hey Jen. We’ve been talking, and we think it might be better if this year’s trip stays a couples thing. Japan is a LOT. The flights, the language barrier, the trains. We just want the trip to run smoothly for everyone.” Smoothly for everyone. I called her immediately. “Melissa. Talk to me.” She paused. “It’s just… you haven’t seemed like yourself in a long time. You’re always so tired. We didn’t think you could keep up.” A pause. “We didn’t think you could manage it.” I sat there in silence. I had planned every trip that group had taken for a decade. Flights. Reservations. Emergencies. Disasters. I was the one everyone called when something went wrong. But somewhere in the last two years, they stopped seeing that woman. And the worst part was… I had started to stop seeing her too. I was bloated every afternoon. Exhausted no matter how much I slept. Awake at 3 a.m. most nights, staring at the ceiling. Foggy. Heavy. Hiding in loose clothes. Offering to take the photos so I didn’t have to be in them. The doctors said it was probably hormones. Or grief. Or just my age. So I stopped asking. Maybe Melissa was right. Maybe I was the tired one now. “Got it,” I said. “I hear you.” Then I hung up. I sent her one final message: “I’ll let you take it from here.” Then I closed the Japan folder, put my phone away, and booked my own trip. A small mountain village three hours from Kyoto. Six nights alone. No plans. No group. Just me. That is where I met Fumiko. She ran the ryokan I stayed in. Somewhere past eighty, but moved like she was fifty. Up before me every morning. Carrying trays. Arranging flowers. Walking up stairs I could barely climb without getting winded. Flat stomach. Sharp eyes. More life in her than I had felt in years. On the third evening, she found me in the garden. “You don’t sleep,” she said. It wasn’t a question. I asked how she knew. “Your face,” she said. “I know that face. I had it once.” Then she told me what she had done every night since she was young. Warm castor oil. A soft cloth. Wrapped snugly over her stomach while she slept. She said the women in her village had done it for generations. “It helps the body clear what it holds onto,” she told me. “You sleep. You wake lighter.” I don’t know why, but I believed her. That night, I slept deeper than I had in months. And for the first time in a long time, I wondered if maybe I wasn’t too old. Maybe I wasn’t fading. Maybe I was just carrying something my body had stopped clearing. The fourth night, my phone stayed face-down on the nightstand. By morning, there were twelve messages. The sushi reservation I had found was gone. The tea ceremony had fallen through. They got on the wrong train. Sarah’s luggage was delayed. Everyone was panicking. I didn’t feel triumphant. I just felt clear. When I got home, I ordered the castor oil pack Fumiko had told me about. Eden Labs. Organic cotton and bamboo. Soft on the skin. Adjustable, so it stayed in place all night. No plastic. No mess. Just oil, warmth, and gentle pressure while I slept. Within the first week, I felt things start moving again. By week two, my stomach looked flatter in the morning. By week three, the 3 a.m. wake-ups had stopped. By week four, I felt like myself again. Lighter. Clearer. Rested. Melissa’s birthday was the first time I saw the group after Japan. I walked in wearing a fitted dress for the first time in years. Rested. Clear-eyed. And I didn’t offer to take anyone’s photo. Melissa stared at me from across the room. Later, she sat next to me and said, “Jen… what have you been doing?” Four months earlier, she didn’t think I could handle Japan. Now she was asking how I looked like myself again. So I told her about Fumiko. About warm castor oil. About the nightly ritual. She typed Eden Labs into her phone right there. Sarah leaned in and asked what we were talking about. Melissa looked at her and said, “You need to hear this.” I learned that some people will watch you suffer and decide that’s who you are now. Tired. Bloated. Foggy. Slower. Someone who needs to be managed. But I wasn’t past it. I wasn’t too old to keep up. I just needed my body to start clearing again. So if you bloat by dinner, wake up at 3 a.m., and feel unlike yourself… it might not be your age. It might not even be grief. And it was never your fault.
