Just a reminder to practice decentering from your life:

things
people
situations

that use you like a renewable energy source.

Yes, this is about decentering patriarchy OBVIOUSLY have you met me, but patriarchy is everywhere.

So this isn’t about cutting people or situations off, but rather… relating to them differently.

This was inspired by a chat with a patient who felt trapped by her rage at members of her family and I encouraged her to use her anger as a tool rather than let it be weaponized against her, as patriarchy is so good at doing.

Instead, practice this: connect with your own agency and use your energy as a source for YOU, instead of (often unwittingly) for other people or situations.

Learn facial gua sha with me, monthly. These classes are meant to be done multiple times — just like any class where you’re learning a new skill! Find the next Face Forward group at wellcollab.com/events

Placemaking is important.

It’s about designing spaces with the idea that humans inhabit them. It’s about knowing that the spaces we occupy inform how we feel.

The common denominator when people walk into any of my spaces — but especially this new(ish!) space — is the space itself.

So, I came up with a little tutorial on how to curate your own space!

Kicking off the spring with a full season of Face Forward! Bought a gua sha tool off of TikTok? Love that for you.

What I don’t love for you is using social media to learn how to use it.

I have thoughts about being in your Chinese era 👀 but if it brings you to the healing properties of TCM, I welcome you with open arms!

I teach facial gua sha so that people learn how to do it properly — join me this spring!

Before you say, “Chryssa, why didn’t you tell me about this??” please know I just came up with the idea tonight 😅

Join me on the New Moon in Aries. We’ll start with a slightly chaotic writing prompt 🤪 and then it’ll be choose your own adventure.

The idea is to gather and create.

I’m charging for space held but mainly for snacks 💁‍♀️

Obviously I’m playing around with some rebranding of things 🤪

It’s just that my two main and beloved services are seemingly so different on the surface that I would like to have a visual thread run throughout the business, from the overarching umbrella that is Well Collab down into the tributaries of more affordable group acupuncture, Public Acupuncture, and the facial wellness ecosystem, Facial Re:Cognition.

Everything that I do here is through the lens of Proof of Life®️ which is, in essence, a matriarchal framework. We learn pathology theory through the 5 elements of Chinese medicine, and Proof of Life offers the matriarchal flipside:

🗡️when perfection is the standard, you have to actively cultivate your (imperfect! by definition!) humanity
🔥 where hustle is normalized, emotional boundaries are what keep you intact
🌊 when self-trust gets overridden, trust in self and experiences gets restored
🌱 when lack of creativity is entropic… create ✨
🌍 when care is treated as indulgence, maintenance is radical self love

This flows through both Public and Facial, and Facial Re:Cognition is the playground where I do a lot of unbraiding and dismantling work that otherwise keeps people interwoven with societal norms that do them harm.

Feminist Facials do great before and afters… but they also get you in your body. Did you know your face could feel so good??

Face Forward groups teach you how to do at home facial gua sha, and teach your fingertips muscle memory about your own face in the process.

And the long awaited Foundations course will of course be dense with feminist theory (sorry! Can’t help it!) but will also give you the tools to do the manual work at home.

Marketing Public reminds me of my earliest business days. There I was, completely confident in the medicine that I had just spent four years learning, having previously lived the experience of what acupuncture can do for me and how it changed my life.

Surely my list of 100 friends and family would mean that my business would kick off to a roaring start!

😅 😅 😅 😅

Instead, what happened was a very rude awakening and a LOT of hard work that honestly, hasn’t stopped. I had to schmooze, meet people where they were, come up with the response, “Thankfully acupuncture isn’t a faith based medicine,” for when people tell me they “don’t believe in it.”

Eventually things picked up.

Truly, if you’re a good acupuncturist and you put the work in and you have a good bedside manner and you’re good with people and you’ve spent your whole life learning how people operate rather than knowing it intuitively so then you can use those learned skills to work with people in a way that builds your business, it’s really not that hard 😬

But I still think, “WHY ISN’T EVERYONE DOING THIS??” It helps you feel better on this cellular level that then ripples out to every facet of your life. Who wouldn’t want that??

So here I am, with a whole ass business, marketing a new one within it. It’s doing much better than it would be if I wasn’t a decade established in the area, but 😮‍💨 it’s work to get people through the door.

Thankfully, after you’ve come once, you’re in 🥹 and my workload significantly decreases. But I’ve been feeling similar feelings to the summer of 2014, that’s for sure!
