**Sarcopenia** is the **age-related loss of muscle mass, strength, and function**

This typically begins in our mid 30s and accelerates during midlife—especially for women in perimenopause and menopause.

In simple terms:
It’s when the body starts breaking down muscle faster than it rebuilds it.

Over time, this can lead to:

* Decreased strength and stability
* Slower metabolism
* More joint pain and fatigue
* Higher risk of falls or injury

The empowering part (because you know I’m not here to be gloomy 😉): sarcopenia is **not inevitable**. Muscle responds to strength training, adequate protein, proper recovery, and supportive care...like massage -wink wink. 💆🏻‍♀️

Midlife is actually a powerful season to *protect* and rebuild muscle—on purpose, for purpose, living with purpose. 💪✨

'Like' and Follow for more real life midlife 'stuff'.

💫 I had the pleasure of serving Dr. Elona and her amazing team at Inspire Smiles!

💫 Massage, essential oils, and ear seeds helped melt away tension and calm the nervous system — even shifting the clinic’s energy.

💫 It’s such a beautiful reminder that relaxation supports our hormones and overall wellbeing.

💫Thank you, , for letting me care for your staff.

Wellness & blessings to you all! 💆‍♀️🩷

[Today]

Not every day is going to be perfect, but we can thank God for the time and opportunity.

Today was a curious day, personally.

Not everybody got to see the sun set or the opportunity to eat dinner... because their life transitioned.

To where...?

Life is short. Life is precious. Life is limited.

Is Heaven confident in your position and right with knowing Jesus as your Lord and Savior?

A: Accept/Admit - that you are a sinner
B: Believe - that Jesus is Lord and Savior
C: Confess - He died and Resurrected for the forgiveness of our sins.

📖 John 3:16 NIV
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

[Self-care 💕 Tips]

Just saw one of my former, pre-Covid clients today. She reached out to see if I was still doing massage, and we got her scheduled today.

She recognized she was loooong overdue and has not been doing self-care very well.

She is a foster mom of 2 little 👨‍👦boys, one of which is a high-needs.

I gave her the assignment this week to start somewhere small with self-care.

Here are the suggestions:
🛀Bath
💝 Gratitude - List off a few things before she gets out of bed or before falling asleep
💨 Time-Out for some deep breathing
🚶🏽‍♀️Go for a walk

Self-care doesn't have to be this grandiose event, take a lot of time or cost a lot. Just invest where you are at right now with time, effort, or monetarily. The point is to get started and adjust as you go.

Which suggestions are doable for you to start today?

[Intentional 🍂 Gratitude]

Good morning, 🧡 Pumpkin!

What a beautiful day. The sun is shining bright here in San Diego, and I just finished sun gazing (looking at the sun with the eyes closed).

As I was gazing, I wanted to intentionally thank the Lord and be present in the moment, absorbing the rays and feeling the warmth on my face. Receiving and 🔁 letting go.

Thank you, Lord, that You are so much bigger and in control, so I can rejoice.


📖 The Lord has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad. 🙌🏽
Psalms 118:24

[Serenity Self💜Care & Stretching]

Three main reasons to incorporate stretching into your self-care routine:

1️⃣ Improve flexibility, making daily activities easier.

2️⃣ Prevent injury by improving the elasticity of muscles and tendons.

3️⃣ Reduce stress by promoting relaxation that helps calm both the body and mind.

•••

Using magnesium oil topically helps relieve tight muscles, offers pain relief, and improves circulation.

•••

What type of activity or products do you incorporate into your self-care routine?

💜 COMING SOON: Curious about the comforting and soothing aroma of the Serenity Restful Blend stick, DM so I can keep you posted when it's available to order.

[Book 📖 of John]

KEY VERSE:
📖 Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
John 20:30‭-‬31 NIV

THE PURPOSE:
of John's Gospel is to set forth a convincing theology of the person and work of Christ, which the Holy Spirit and Christian witnesses can use to share to lost men and women that Jesus is who He claimed to be and accomplished what He set out to do.
Reference- The Life Plan Study Bible John Hagee
