It's almost December, so I know you KNOW it's flu season. I don't know about you, but I really don't like being sick! 🤧😷

PLEASE!👇🏻
• if you're feeling off and unsure if you're actually sick, let's both mask up for the appointment just to be safe.
• if you're sick 1-2 days before the appointment, just go ahead and cancel. It isn't fair to your practitioner - or other patients needing the appointment - to wait it out and cancel in the morning when you already knew you were ill.
• Eleven Arrows has a health screening that needs to be done the day prior to your appointment. We understand sometimes we feel fine and then wake up the next day sick. For this reason we ask you to cancel by 9 AM if this occurs. This gives time for the practitioner to get another patient booked into the slot. If you wait a few hours "to see how I feel", the normal cancellation policy fee will apply.

Thank you for keeping your practitioners and other patients healthy by taking care of yourself ! 🙏🏻

Resting isn't always about physically resting your body. It's about resting your mind. Resting your nervous system.

We often turn to scrolling and screens to "switch off" and decompress. But in switching off, we're switching off from our bodies too, disconnecting from ourselves. 🤳🏻

Numbing our feelings.

This might bring temporary relief, but those feelings will still be there the moment you put the screen down (and we often actually feel worse for it, rather than rested).

True rest comes not by switching off or tuning out, but by tuning IN to our internal world and into the support of the space around us.

Tuning into our breath.
Tuning into the feeling of the support beneath us, holding us.
Tuning into nature.
Tuning into the sensations in our body.
Tuning into our emotions!

This is what brings the body into a state of true rest; PRESENCE!

Presence tells your brain and nervous system that it's safe to be here now. That it's safe to slow down. There are no threats we need to run away from.

If we're not used to it, resting can feel uncomfortable. Precisely because it can bring up all of the feelings we've been avoiding. Or because it can bring up feelings of guilt around not being productive.

So we must show our bodies and nervous system that it's safe to rest. It's safe to soften and be present. In small amounts.
Taking small moments to be present with yourself. Even micro-moments of rest helps to build this safety.

When we do, we have so much more capacity to handle life's challenges. Beyond that, we get to reclaim our vitality.

This might look like: walking without a podcast, restorative or yin yoga, yoga Nidra, being in nature, taking a bath, having a massage, putting your hands on your heart and belly and taking 5 deep breaths, lying on the floor, cuddling with a pet or loved one.

Technology glitches, sometimes final buttons aren't pressed. Things happen and it's okay!

I know it's frustrating to turn up and not have an appointment, but please take a moment to breathe and remind yourself your practitioner is very unlikely to be the cause of this.

With our clinic - and honestly, majority of businesses these days - you will ALWAYS get an Appointment Confirmation email within minutes of the appointment getting scheduled. You will also have a 2-hour text reminder come through the day of. If scheduled well in advance, you will have a 48-hour reminder email come in, AND our health pre-screening check.

If you didn't receive any of these, you don't have an appointment. Plain and simple.

👉🏻 If you intended to book and didn't receive your confirmation, please give us a call so we can help you! (250) 591-8993 📞
