A reflection (and ramble) on health... My life is abundant. Sometimes I forget that. Take a moment to reflect on how abundant your life is. Sure it might not be perfect, but it is likely quite abundant. Notice how your energy changes when you focus on abundance - when you feel grateful / can recognize all the positive things in your life. We get caught up dwelling and stressing about almost everything in life and I can speak for myself, it is easy to lose sight of everything ...we have. Our thoughts, emotions and beliefs have a massive impact on our health. Really, it all starts in the brain where our body processes incoming information and releases a response (emotional, chemical, physical.. etc), thus the "lens" we see the world through (think 'rose colored glasses') has a huge role in this process and how our body is ultimately recieving messages. Our body is not just a machine. It has an intelligence beyond machine, and an innate ability to heal if given the right environment. What is the environment you are creating in your body? What is your relationship to your outer environment? As a whole we are disconnected from the earth. We fail to see how our health is connected to the health of the planet. That, by poisoning and polluting and destroying we are doing this to ourselves as well. It's so hard with so many people on the planet to change the way we do things.. and yet, it's the only way. Take a moment to contemplate abundance. Maybe we have more than we realize. Maybe it's time to start appreciating rather than wanting - to remind yourself how lucky you are to live this life. How amazing life is. Our world is transforming in a massive way right now. It has dawned on me that if you are not having some kind of revolution (inner or outer) you are missing out! I think we can all agree there has been some time for reflection and contemplation. What needs to change? What are we not listening to? What does health mean to us individually and as a whole? "We are mean to live in two infinities at once - one leading us outward toward action in the world around us; the other calling us to open ourselves to the world within us." - Jacob Needleman

I could get used to these leisurely morning stretches with coffee and my book... and well... Oliver cuddles (always).

Hello Everyone, These are unprecedented times, and I think we are all sitting on edge waiting for what happens next. I want to assure my clients that I am well, and at the present time, still open for business. I am committed to maintaining a safe space and will continue to follow the Saskatchewan Health Authority recommendations for my business. As such, I kindly ask that anyone who has cold or flu-like symptoms, or anyone who has been in contact with anyone who is not well, as well as anyone who has been traveling out of country, to hold off booking appointments and follow SHA's recommendations. I'm also happy to reschedule anyone's appointments as needed. Thinking of everyone at this time.

Sunbeams + practise =

Touch. We all need it. Touch is universal and healing. You can go for a massage to work out the knots, aches and pains. But you can also go to simply recieve the comfort and therapy of touch, which might be especially important if it is absent or lacking in your life. In thai massage we practise 'loving kindness'. What this means, is that behind every touch there is great care and intention, and respect for that individual. There are many reasons to book a massage, and the necessity of touch is a great one! #thaimassagetherapy #benefitoftouch #selfcare #manyreasons #healingtouch #feelsgood #relaxandunwind #therapeutic #thaimassageregina

Working with the feet was one of the wonderfully unique features of thai massage that intrigued me and drew me in, and my feet continue to be one of my favorite 'tools'. As a thai massage therapist, I am able to utilize my entire body and the space around me when I give a massage. This really makes thai massage special. Not only does it create variety and make the massage more dynamic and interesting to recieve, but more sustainable and enjoyable to give. Thai massage is a... conversation that is felt rather then spoken, an experience almost poetic in nature to move with another and respond to their body. There are so many possibilities for creativity, diversity, adaptation and exploration in how the massage is delivered and ultimately recieved. #ilovemyjob #thaimassagetherapy #movementpoetry #tributetofeet #nolimits #dynamicapproach #thaimassageregina #treatingthewholebody #releasingtension #healingarts See more

Water represents the Winter season. It is connected with dark, coldness and the time everything starts to die down, to hibernate or migrate. We feel a need to spend time cozied up indoors, to sleep more, rest, eat and restore our energy. #water #balanced #flow #artistic #reflective #clear #calm #waterelement #winter

Thai massage loosens muscles, opens joints and deeply moves energy in the body. When the therapist releases the pose, fresh circulation rushes back into the area. #movingenergy #circulation #healthybody #healthymind #thaimassage #therapythatworks #healingtouch #deeplytouched

Reflections on kindness and patience... I am not always either of these things but teaching yoga and thai massage are a practise in both, and I am learning to soften and find perspective in the moments when it is most challenging. We are here to grow and that is not always comfortable, the process of being vulnerable and truly looking at ourselves in itself requires kindness and patience, as well as honesty, integrity and persistence. I believe we have a responsibility to c...ontribute to the world in a meaningful way, which can have many interpretations and be achieved in big and small ways. I am grateful to have found my current path with yoga and thai massage which offers me a sense of purpose and an opportunity to grow and give back. Thank you to everyone who is a part of that journey. #thaimassagetherapy #lessonsoflife #growingtogether #lovingkindness #cultivatewhatmattersmost See more

An essential art form of Thai massage- The usage of feet. An almost instant grounding for the receiver. #handyfeet #grounding #thaimassage #theart #theenergy #theeffect #touchtoheal #tobewalkedon #isntalwaysbad #lovewhatyoudo
