Pretend First… Your Brain Will Catch Up

Over 30 years of working with clients and patients, I’ve taught one simple truth that surprises people every time:

If you don’t know how to train your brain to think and feel positively… just pretend.
Because your brain will genuinely catch up.

This isn’t “faking it.”
It’s the science of neuroplasticity, your brain’s ability to rewire and build new pathways at any age.

When you act as if you feel hopeful, calm or confident, your brain fires the neural circuits for those emotions. Repeat it enough and those circuits strengthen. Over time, the brain begins to choose those patterns automatically.

I’ve taught this for decades and I’ve seen it transform people’s emotional wellbeing, including my own especially during menopause, when mood, confidence and clarity can all feel shaken.

If positivity feels impossible right now, start tiny:

✨ Notice one good thing
✨ Interrupt one negative thought
✨ Take one calmer breath
✨ Choose one more hopeful sentence
✨ Reframe one moment of self-criticism
✨ And yes… just pretend for a moment

Because pretending is not denial.
It’s rehearsal.
And rehearsal rewires your brain.

You’re not stuck.
Your brain isn’t stuck.
And your story isn’t stuck.

Start small, be gentle with yourself…
And let neuroplasticity do the rest. 💚💜 Best of luck 🤞 Dee Murray.

Muscle Maintenance for soft tissue health.

Welcome to Muscle Maintenance and thank you for considering me with regard to your musculoskeletal health.

From personal experience I know what it is to have chronic pain and restricted movement, and how it affects every aspect of daily life. Thanks to a lower back injury which was successfully treated using sports massage techniques I became fascinated by the process used and went on to explore the wonderful world of Massage and Sports Massage.

In 2015 I gained an ITEC Diploma in Massage which established a solid foundation in knowledge and understanding of human anatomy and physiology as well as thorough client care and effective massage techniques that bring huge benefits to health and well being.

In 2017 I went on the gain VTCT Level 4 certificate in Sports Massage which opened up another realm of the musculoskeletal system. Here I learned how to carry out a comprehensive assessment of clients conditions as well as a range of very effective sports massage techniques to help maintain soft tissue health or to assist in the healing of soft tissue injuries.
