CUSTOMER NOTICE
For my own health reasons, I will be taking a break from Rea’s Retreat. This is not something I wanted to do, but I am always telling my clients to listen to their bodies and rest when they are telling you to - well so I guess I have waited until mine has screamed at me 🤦🏻‍♀️ I hope you can understand that without my health being 100%, I will be no good to you. I will be taking a break from Rea’s Retreat until I am better. At this time, I’m not sure how long that will be, but I hope it isn’t too long. I will be in touch and will be posting on my social media pages to keep you all up to date. This isn’t something I have taken lightly and feel I need to listen to my body and take a rest.

Thank you for your continued support and custom and I hope to welcome you back soon 🤍

Please note gift vouchers will be honoured and extended against the time I will be off.

Again, Thank you and take care xx

M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S 🎄🤶🎅

I just want to take this opportunity to wish each and everyone of you a healthy, happy and peaceful Christmas period while Rea’s Retreat takes a little break until January.

Many of you, old and new clients, have walked through my door this year. You have shared very personal things, stories, opinions, offloaded, let go off your tears, and been able to relax and trust in me to treat you with the wonders that is Reflexology.

I want to take this time to thank you all for your continued custom and support this past year, for your recommendations to your friends and family and helping my wee business grow. It means the world to me.

Take this time to slow down a bit, take a breath and know it’s ok not to feel happy and joyful and be merry singing Christmas carols. My heart goes out to anyone who is having a hard time this Christmas, who is finding things a bit tough, grieving or experiencing ill health. I send you love and light and prayers and hope you can find a little peace 🤍

Peace and love and here’s to a healthy, happy, peaceful and abundant 2023 for us all 🥂

This week we acknowledge a subject that we all like to avoid. Dealing with grief is horrendous, painful but numbing at the same time, confusing, lonely, isolating, exhausting and heartbreaking, I could go on.

This year particularly I have had many amazing people who have walked through my door in the depths of grief and hoping that Reflexology could help them. I tell each person the same thing. This is your journey and absolutely no one else knows how you feel, no matter if they have lost someone like you, their journey is theirs and your journey is yours. Be kind to yourself, stop supressing your emotions. You don't have to be strong for others, keep busy, dissolve how you are feeling so not to make people feel uncomfortable. The people who love you will be there, tears, snots and all.

You haven't just lost your loved one once, you have lost them for the rest of your life. The milestones you are yet to hit, the big events that are going to be so difficult without them, and it's ok to be sad and cry about that. Talk to your loved ones, your partner, your friends, even if they don't know what to say, they will certainly listen and give you that cuddle you so desperately need. Never hide your grief. Express it, show it, you never know who else might need to see you open up so they can feel ok to do the same. I myself have struggled a lot with grief after loosing my Daddy and best friend nearly 5 years ago. But, sometimes good things can come from the heartbreak. Rea's Retreat was born from my Daddys illness. So please, if you ever need help, please seek it. There is always someone there to listen 🤍

Grief is just love with nowhere to go🤍

Our emotional health impacts our physical health, there is no way around it. I’ve overcome some of my own emotional barriers in the past; traumas and toxic beliefs are scary to unpack but when you do you give yourself freedom and the opportunity for dynamic growth.

Work with a coach, speak up for yourself, let your feelings out. Deciding to focus on your emotional health as much as your physical health will have big payoffs for your wellness and happiness throughout life.

I often speak to clients about the emotional links to their imbalances after treatments. I find the links between our physical and emotional being fascinating and if you examine your physical concerns and compare to this diagram, you will surely see how it relates to your mental and emotional state.

I came across this as I was having a wee nosey with a coffee on my morning break. This past month I have had some of the most amazing clients through my door. Resillience, strength, kindness, giving, generous, loving - would be just a few words I would use to describe them. They are fantastic in their jobs, a great partner, friend, sibling, daughter/son, cousin, mother, father... but the lack of love, compassion, and kindess they were giving to themselves, was not ok.

I have told them and I will tell you to-
This is your Saturday morning kick up the bum! (And yes before anyone says it, this includes me to!)
LOVE YOURSELF
BE KIND TO YOURSELF
STOP BEING SO HARD ON YOURSELF
YOU HAVE DONE ENOUGH
YOU ARE ENOUGH
YOU ARE WORTHY
YOU DESERVE TO BE LOVED
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BURN YOURSELF OUT FOR OTHERS TO LOVE YOU
YOU ARE NOT USELESS
YOU ARE AMAZING
YOU ARE LOVED SO MUCH
YOU CAN DO THIS
BE PROUD OF YOURSELF
I BELIEVE IN YOU 🤍

Grief within children can be extremely difficult. We as adults struggle to process our emotions a lot of the time, never mind our children. I seen this post this morning and thought it would be helpful to share some charities that can support your child through their grief.

Reflexology can also support children in their greiving process by reducing stress in their bodies and minds, bringing them into balance- therefore helping with emotions, sleep deprivation, behavioural outbursts, concentration etc.

Sending love and light to all grieving children out there 🤍🤎

As part of below are a number of organisations that can help support children through bereavement.
📍 Cruse Bereavement Support NI - https://www.cruse.org.uk/
📌Macmillan in Northern Ireland - https://www.macmillan.org.uk/
📍Child Bereavement UK - https://www.childbereavementuk.org/

✨️✨️CUSTOMER NOTICE✨️✨️

Please read the above notice. I appreciate every single person who has supported me from the very beginning of my journey as a Reflexologist. I have worked so hard on building my reputation and this business, by helping clients as much as I can and I have loved every minute. I appreciate times are hard for a lot of people at the moment but honestly, times have been hard for the past few years, there is never a nice time to announce increases.

I have put a lot of energy and time into Rea's Retreat, this year especially, and can't wait to see where things can go from here 🤍

In December I will be doing some giving back to my clients who I have coming in for treatments. Each client will get to choose an envelope of which will be a little goody prize inside! ☺️

Thank you so much for all your continued support, if you have any questions or would like a copy of our package/treatment lists - please get in touch 🤎🤍

Much love,
Rebecca

So true. During busy periods and stressful times, it's important to make your health a priority 🤎

I can remember how in the first few years of my business my clients would opt for not having their regular reflexology session during busy patches, like the lead up to Christmas.

But then that changed. Instead of no session, they started to opt for an extra session, and schedule them closer together during the busy times.

I can still picture one lady who said these words, “I’m too busy to cancel my Reflexology session!! It’s what keeps me going during the busy times.”

It was lovely to see the focus and priority shift. Pretty cool hey.💙

Lots of reasons to smile this week! ☺️

Seeing how much I have helped people through the fascinating therapy of reflexology makes me so happy and proud. Receiving messages to tell me how much treatments have helped clients makes my day.

I will never forget how lucky I am to have found my purpose and doing what I love🤍
