Empowerment Through Being Present As You Create Sacred Space Within

9/24/2023

0 Comments

 
Autumn brings darker, colder days...the perfect opportunity to take an empowering journey inwards!

Continuously wandering from one thing to the next seeking peace and inner connection, knowing that there is more 'out there' that may give you a clue as to your purpose... it's exhausting!

What if the journey to inner peace and connection was not only inspiring and creative but empowering as well. A journey inwards to discover your Sacred self. It doesn't have to be 'work', it can be peaceful and loving.

Offered in 3 one week blocks you will have a full year of access to this beautiful, experiential online workshop series, allowing you to take steps and changes at your own pace, plus revisit ideas and suggestions if you get stuck.
Empowerment through being present within at hand to health

Yin Yoga & Your Vagus Nerve

9/5/2023

0 Comments

 
​During a Yin Yoga session poses are held for a longer period of time in order to benefit, stretch and open the deeper muscles and fascia. Fascia alone needs a minimum of 90 to 120 seconds to begin to release during a stretch. Taking time to allow the fascia to stretch is essential to maintaining flexibility, range of motion and overall holistic well-being.

Knowing Your Limitations Is As Powerful As Knowing Your Strengths

9/4/2023

0 Comments

 
Just a few months ago the Massage Therapist that I see asked me when I would begin following the advice that I give to clients. Whomp!

The realization that despite my mind believing I'm still 30 years old, my body is saying a loud and clear "Hey, NO!" Not easy to come to grips with, but while I do practice self-care, I need to develop a deeper understanding of my limitations.

Pushing Boulders, Lifting Rocks & Letting Go

5/28/2023

Picture
(shared with permission) Some months ago a client was telling me of all the moving pieces she felt the need to control with regards to a particular event in her life, in order for things to go well, and for her to meet the goals that she had. Putting the pieces in place had been an ongoing effort for many months and it was obviously emotionally and mentally draining for her.

I said to her that it seemed she was pushing a very large boulder up a steep, steep hill. She said that was what this felt like. I asked her what was the worse that could happen if she just stepped aside, stopped pushing the boulder and let go. Silence.

Are You Stress Aware?

4/2/2023

0 Comments

 
Something I hear often from clients during or at the end of their sessions is “I didn’t know that muscle was tight, or sore, until you were massaging there” or “I didn’t realize how tense and stressed I was until I was quietly lying on the massage/reiki table”.  Most holistic therapies encourage relaxation, and when added to a quiet atmosphere many people begin to breathe more deeply, become more present in the moment and become more aware of where they are holding stress and tension in their body, mind and/or spirit.

Reiki & Setting Intention ~Part 2

1/8/2023

0 Comments

 
Here is the part 2 that was promised in the January Enewsletter to my blog about Reiki, Intention Setting & the New Year.

Setting intention doesn't have to be a New Years event but can happen at any time. The reason that I focused on the New Year was because of Mercury being retrograde at the start of 2023...a perfect time for letting go!

Yoga Snacks and Meditation

1/1/2023

2 Comments

 
When you think of Yoga practice or meditation or any self-care, do you feel like you have to have the time to do it? That it has to be done over an hour or more? 

It is easy to become disheartened if your feel that you want to commit to stretching every day but there is no point because you don't have an extra hour to give yourself. But who says it has to look like that?

Gentle Self Care for Winter & the Holidays

11/30/2022

0 Comments

 
During December your self care may be put aside to deal with the busyness of the season, but with the colder weather and increased stress of the holidays you need more self care to ease your body, mind and spirit through to January.
Picture
Physically the colder weather has an impact on your movement, muscles and joints. In order to maintain a constant core temperature the body may lessen circulation to extremities which can leave them feeling stiff, sore, cold and less mobile. OR, you may be using different muscle groups as you shovel snow or adjust your walking gait to avoid slipping. Even the skin is impacted by colder weather and can often need extra hydration.

Harvesting Holistic Health ~ what does that even mean?

What does it mean to harvest holistic health?

Holistic Massage created Body Awareness and Stress ReductionMassage has a positive impact on Mind, Body and Spirit
The awareness of connection of how you function as a whole being is often brought to light during a Massage. Clients will often notice that releasing muscle tension in one area has an impact on other muscles. It's always rewarding when they realize that they are not just a collection of parts.
