💜 Therapy Thursday
How Massage Supports the Thoracic Spine

The mid-back holds tension from posture, stress, and daily habits.

✨ Why Therapy Helps:
• Releases muscular and fascial restriction
• Improves spinal mobility
• Supports better posture
• Enhances breathing mechanics

💆‍♀️ Manual Therapy Can:
• Reduce upper back stiffness
• Ease neck and shoulder tension
• Encourage smoother spinal movement

✨ Reminder:
Mobility often returns when the body feels supported

💜 Work It Out Wednesday
Thoracic Mobility & Strength

The thoracic spine thrives on gentle movement and control.

• Keep hips facing forward
• Return to center and switch sides

💜 2. Wall Angels

✨ Focus:
Move slowly.
Breathe deeply.
Quality over quantity.

💜 Mind Your Muscles Monday
Thoracic Spine (Mid-Back)

The thoracic spine is the middle portion of your spine, designed for rotation and extension. When it moves well, the rest of the body doesn’t have to compensate.

📍 Location:
The thoracic spine runs from the base of the neck to the bottom of the ribcage.

🧠 Primary Functions:
• Supports upright posture
• Allows rotation and twisting
• Assists with breathing through rib movement
• Reduces strain on the neck and low back

✨ Why This Matters:
When the mid-back becomes stiff, the neck and low back often work harder — leading to tension and discomfort.

Healthy movement starts in the middle 💜

🌙 Body Awareness Sunday
Breath Check-In

Before the new week begins, take a moment to notice your breath.

Ask yourself:
✨ Where do I feel my breath today?
✨ Does it feel shallow or full?
✨ What changes when I slow it down?

Your breath is information — not something to control.

Rest, reflect, and prepare for the week ahead 💜

🌿 Self-Care Saturday
One-Breath Reset

Self-care doesn’t have to be time-consuming.

Today’s reset:
✨ One slow breath in through the nose

Small moments of awareness create powerful shifts 💜

💜 Flexibility Friday
Creating Space for the Breath

Flexibility isn’t just about stretching muscles — it’s about allowing movement where it’s been restricted.

• Walk hands slightly to one side
• Breathe into the open ribcage

💜 2. Supine Rib Expansion

✨ End-of-Week Reminder:
Create space for the breath — and the body will follow.

💜 Therapy Thursday
How Massage Supports the Diaphragm

The diaphragm responds best when the body feels safe.

✨ Why Therapy Helps:
• Calms the nervous system
• Releases rib and abdominal tension
• Supports fuller, deeper breathing
• Improves core coordination

💆‍♀️ Manual Therapy Can:
• Encourage relaxation of overactive breathing muscles
• Improve rib and spinal mobility
• Help reconnect breath and movement

✨ Reminder:
Sometimes the body needs help remembering how to breathe.

💜 Work It Out Wednesday
Breathing as Core Training

Breathing is a form of movement — and it’s one of the most effective ways to support your core.

💪 Breath-Based Exercises:

💜 1. Supine Diaphragmatic Breathing
• Lie on your back with knees bent
• One hand on chest, one on belly
• Inhale into the belly
• Exhale slowly and fully

💜 2. 90/90 Breathing
• Lie on your back with hips and knees at 90 degrees
• Feet supported on a wall or chair
• Breathe deeply into the ribcage and belly

✨ Focus:
Slow breaths.
Soft ribs.
No forcing.

💜 Tension Tuesday
When the Diaphragm Is Restricted

Breathing patterns matter — especially when stress enters the picture.

😖 Common Signs of Diaphragm Tension:
• Shallow or chest breathing
• Rib or upper back tightness
• Neck and shoulder tension
• Feeling anxious or “on edge”
• Core instability or low back discomfort

🔍 Why This Happens:
• Chronic stress
• Prolonged sitting
• Poor posture
• Habitual breath holding
• Lack of movement through the ribs

✨ Helpful Reminder:
Tension doesn’t always live where you feel it — sometimes it lives in the breath.

💜 Mind Your Muscles Monday
Diaphragm Muscle

The diaphragm is your primary breathing muscle and a key player in both posture and nervous system regulation. It’s not just about breathing — it’s about how your body feels and functions.

📍 Location:
The diaphragm is a dome-shaped muscle that sits at the base of the ribcage, separating the chest from the abdomen.

🧠 Main Function:
Its primary role is to support breathing by contracting and relaxing with each inhale and exhale.

➡️ What the Diaphragm Supports:
• Efficient breathing
• Core stability (working with the deep core)
• Rib and spinal movement
• Nervous system regulation

✨ Why This Matters:
How you breathe affects how you move, feel, and heal.
Breath is the foundation of calm, stability, and support.

🌙 Body Awareness Sunday 🌙
Reflect • Reset • Prepare

Before the week begins again, take a quiet moment to check in with your body.

Ask yourself:
✨ How does my body feel compared to the start of the week?
✨ Where do I feel more supported?
✨ Where might I need more care or rest?

You don’t need answers — just awareness.

This week was about building a foundation.
Next week, we’ll continue adding layers of support and connection.

Rest, reflect, and move into the new week with intention 💜

🌿 Self-Care Saturday 🌿
New Year Reset – Deep Core Edition

Self-care doesn’t have to be complicated to be effective.

Today’s reminder is simple:
✨ Let your belly soften.

Many of us spend the day gripping our core without realizing it — holding tension, bracing, or staying in “go mode.” Gently allowing the belly to relax can help calm the nervous system and support deeper, more effective breathing.

Try this today:
• Place one hand on your belly
• Take a slow breath in
• Let your abdomen expand naturally
• Exhale without force

That’s it.
No effort. No fixing. Just awareness.

Sometimes the most powerful reset comes from doing less 💜
