Miałam niebywałą przyjemność wystąpić w jednym z odcinków podcastu "Lomi lomi dla praktyków", prowadzonym przez Aloha Magdalena , moją drogą nauczycielkę, u której to stawiałam swoje pierwsze kroki poznając technikę jak i cała filozofię stojącą za masażem Lomi Lomi Nui.

Opowiadam co nieco jak trafiłam właśnie na Lomi, czym jest dla mnie, jakie wartości odnajduję w tej technice i o tym, że dla mnie osobiście jest to swego rodzaju niesamowita ścieżka samopoznania :)
Odcinek nagrany w marcu, jednak nadal aktualny ;)

Technique – dance – depth 🌊

Lomi lomi nui massage and the Hawaiian philosophy behind it is an endless journey for me – a way to get to know myself better.
In the beginning of May I had a wonderful opportunity to be a part of 5-days workshop led by Zofia Gadomska (Zofia Masaż Lomi Lomi Nui) – lomi lomi nui teacher and also a dance instructor.

I love everything what was happening there. We were mainly focusing on our own bodies, posture and conscious movement while massaging.

The more I practice massage, the more it’s obvious to me that the way I move, the way I feel with my own body, the ease and lightness that I have while being by the table – the more relaxed, light and better taken care the body of a person on the table is.
Learning how to stay connected to myself during the session and connecting to the other body at the same time, brings harmony which is so needed if we want balance and wellness to appear.

Zofia has an incredible ability to catch nuances, knows how to explain and correct things which can be improved. Exercises which I could easily take back home with me, will be a useful tool to stay tuned and reconnect to what I have learned about my practice so far.

Beautiful group of other practitioners, conversations, evenings with the music - made me feel fulfilled and rested at the same time. 🎼

Mahalo for this wonderful, rich in new insights, extremely relaxing time! 🙏✨

🌺I am fully back to Reykjavik, with upgraded knowledge and skills, feel free to contact me and book and appointment. 🌺

"How to feel your (difficult) feelings?"
- I am deeply touched by the episode of „Touchful Podcast”, recently recorded by my Dear Lomi Teacher, Aloha Magdalena. 🌺
(Link to the episode below)

There is so much wisdom in it, deepened by sharing personal, life experiences.
Magdalena talks about why we tend to suppress our emotions and shares some simple, healthy ways of how to let them out.

❕There is a very important message to be reminded of.
- When we hold our emotions back, suppress or put them aside – it doesn't mean they disappear. There is a high probability that they will stay and make us feel heavy, numb or less energized, creating tensions or diseases.

We tend to think that as adults we shouldn’t be „too emotional” - but there is the same necessity to feel all the feelings, embrace them, process and let them out at any stage of our lives.
It's a part of our experience as human beings and there is nothing to be ashamed of! 🙂
It’s just a matter of tools we can use as grown-ups to do it in a healthy way.🛠️

I think that it’s actually a part of basic personal hygiene, required to have clean mind and healthy body. As important as other beneficial habits, like eating nutritious food🥑, staying hydrated💧 or having the right amount of sleep💤.

More and more I am finding my own ways of dealing with intense emotions.
In the moment of sadness/anger/irritation, I love to grab my bike 🚴‍♀️ and pedal with full power, making a conscious decision to feel what’s there, checking with myself what kind of message these emotions have for me, turning them into a driving force at the same time... breathing them out, crying sometimes if I feel the need.
Sometimes I dance 💃 and shake things out or just dip myself in cold water💧 – feeling every single emotion fully, imagining that they dissolve in that water.

For me and many of my clients, Lomi Lomi Nui massage is also a beautiful way to let the difficult feelings out – dealing even with the ones, which are already stored somewhere deep down, on an unconscious level. It’s a very gentle process, where the body receives a lot of care, and attention - having a safe space to be comfortable enough to let go. 🍃

Thank you Aloha Magdalena for sharing so many encouraging words! 🤍

Two years from my first Lomi Lomi Nui massage course I've decided recently to refresh my knowledge and once again fullfill my soul with the spirit of Aloha.

I've spent the whole week with a group of beautiful people who gathered together to learn more about themselves, about the technique and the whole philosophy which stands behind this Hawaiian massage.

Days full of Hawaiian rituals, intuitive dance, excercises, practice by the massage table, meaningful conversations, made this course an incredible, deep, intense experience on so many levels.

Many insights, beautiful discoveries, thoughts and important lessons about how to improve the technique but also how to hold the space for anyone who comes to receive.
I feel energized and fullfilled.
I also feel that I've reached a new level on my Lomi Lomi path and as a massage practitioner.

Marta Gierczyńska / Masaż Lomi Lomi Nui i Świadoma Praca z Ciałem thank you for creating this course, for you wisdom, kindness, warm heart and important messages.
Big "Thank you!" to the whole group for creating a safe, authentic space which allowed us to be truly with each others, explore, learn and support.

Huge Mahalo to all of you ❤️

(I am still in Iceland for the next two weeks if anyone feels like experiencing the Touch_from_the_heart - feel free to contact me.)
After that I am back to Iceland 1st of March 2023 :)
Until then... See you somewhere in Poland :)
