The messages, check-ins, and simple โ€œIโ€™ve got youโ€ moments over the last 24 hours have meant more than I can say.

Clients coming in for massage at Compliment Your Body always get the deep, comforting warmth of the BioMat as they settle into the massage table. On days like this, it really earns its place in the room.

I often describe the BioMat as the Rolls Royce of heating pads - but itโ€™s not just heat.

(Yesโ€ฆ people really do bring it on trips once they get used to it.)

When I first started using the BioMat in my practice, clients immediately began asking about it. Several ended up purchasing one for home - and they still talk about how much they love it. A client whoโ€™s relocating soon recently asked me about buying one, which was a good reminder that people donโ€™t always know this is an option unless I say so.

If youโ€™ve ever wondered what youโ€™re lying on during your session - you can absolutely have this at home.

Most people donโ€™t realize how different deep infrared heat feels until they experience it.

And on a cold, windy day like today . . . I completely understand the appeal of staying warm at home. โ„๏ธ

Living and working in a community with a strong military presence has made me more mindful of something important: many people who serve are limited in how they can express political opinions publicly.

People in uniform hold a wide range of beliefs - and their silence in public spaces isnโ€™t a lack of care, itโ€™s part of their duty.

As a civilian, I try not to take the freedom to speak lightly. When I choose to use my voice, itโ€™s not to speak for anyone else, but to act responsibly with the freedoms I do have.

Respect, accountability, and thoughtful engagement matter - in business, in community, and in civic life.

Silence isnโ€™t always a choice. For those who can speak publicly, thoughtful engagement matters.

Maybe your Valentine is a spouse.
Or a friend.
Or a family member.
Or your dog.
Or . . . maybe itโ€™s you!

Self-care isnโ€™t selfish - itโ€™s necessary.
And feeling better in your body is one of the most meaningful gifts you can give (or receive).

If massage is part of how you take care of yourself - whether thatโ€™s deep relaxation, deep therapeutic focus, or simply time on the BioMat with soothing heat and negative ions - you know where to find me. :-)

However you choose to mark the day, make it about care.
Thatโ€™s the real love language.

The last two weeks were an ebb in my body composition journey - some soreness, a dip in motivation, a little sub-accute depression, and some foods I donโ€™t normally eat.

And thatโ€™s okay. After five months of consistency, a short reset is human. What matters is that Iโ€™m back on track today.

Since September:

โ€ข Down 20+ lbs overall
โ€ข Down 17 lbs of pure body fat
โ€ข Body fat % down ~5%
โ€ข Visceral fat dropped from 17 โ†’ 11
โ€ข InBody score improving steadily

And hereโ€™s something important:

My skeletal muscle mass is holding steady - which is exactly what I want right now.

During fat-loss phases, most people lose muscle mass (especially men over 40)

The fact that mine is holding strong means Iโ€™m losing fat while preserving lean tissue - the ideal combination for a long-term transformation.
Transformation isnโ€™t linear. It has ebbs and flows.

A couple of off-weeks donโ€™t erase several months of discipline.

They just remind you to pick up where you left off - and keep going.

Today is a reset. Today is back to flow again.

Onward toward June.

Iโ€™ve been an independent massage therapist in this community for just over three years now, running my own studio in a small town - and Iโ€™ll be honest, it hasnโ€™t always been easy. There were long stretches where I was very much in survival mode, simply doing what I could to keep moving forward.

This past December, for the first time since opening my doors, my massage schedule was completely full by mid-month. January followed close behind, nearly booked solid.

I donโ€™t take that lightly.

Gratitude post

So, many of you knew I was auditioning recently and reached out with excitement and support - thank you for that. It truly means more than you know.

The past few years on stage have been a gift.

I struck gold three times in a row, and I donโ€™t take that lightly.
I was incredibly fortunate to play

๐ŸŒฑ the Voice of the Plant in Little Shop of Horrors
๐Ÿ”ฎ Nostradamus in Something Rotten!
๐Ÿ’ƒ and Barry in The Prom

Each role stretched me, challenged me, and reminded me how much I love storytelling through music.

This season didnโ€™t unfold the same way - and thatโ€™s okay.
Sometimes the alignment isnโ€™t there, and honoring that is part of the journey too.

What hasnโ€™t changed is my gratitude or my love of singing . . .
or my belief that the right show, with the right creative team, always finds you when the timing is right.

So Iโ€™m trusting the pause, celebrating what was, and looking ahead with excitement.

Iโ€™ll be back on stage again soon - I can feel it.

Onward to 2026. ๐ŸŽญ

Not every week is meant to feel light - and thatโ€™s okay.

What matters is continuing to choose yourself:
movement, routine, nourishment, rest.

Progress doesnโ€™t disappear in quieter moments.
It just changes pace.

This, too, will pass.

A quiet winter Sunday with snow on the ground -
a slow morning, coffee in hand -
the kind that invites reflection.

Lately, Iโ€™ve been sitting with the concepts of giving and receiving.

When we give from the heart, unconditionally,
itโ€™s important to release control over the outcome.

The return may come from the original source -
or it may arrive elsewhere, later, in an unexpected way.

The gesture always comes back;
the form is the variable.

Receiving, on the other hand, isnโ€™t always about being offered the opportunity you expected or hoped for.

Sometimes it challenges us to recognize what doesnโ€™t align
and to choose our actions from a place of self-respect rather than obligation.

An outcome that unfolds differently than you had hoped for doesnโ€™t diminish your capacity
or the integrity you bring.
