Found on street in Turners Falls MA this weekend. ❄️ had to take a picture, but I waited to post, here’s why:

I’ve made it a sometimes-habit to fast on social media when I go out of town. It’s what helps me keep what I feel is a healthier relationship with it.

But here’s the catch for me: I run a business on my own so there’s the pull to feel like I need to engage with it as much as daily. So my compromise is to create times where I actively avoid it. If I’m spending time with those I love, I’d rather choose to fully be present to them and my experience. exists for a reason.

🧐What do you do to maintain good boundaries with social media?

I’m curious to hear especially if you also run a business and are the one managing the social media accounts.

Hung out with a good friend who was at the tail end of a cold yesterday. I’m flying to the northeast tomorrow (actual winter!) and I’m not messing around. Looked in our medicine cabinet this AM and pulled out a few helpful remedies. Taking these all day long and will start on the fire cider when I get home.

Also got anti-viral oils in all diffusers are the office today. Sleep, and lots of it, is the one thing on the to-do list tonight.

Viruses can only thrive in compromised environments. Make sure you’re giving your body what it needs to keep you healthy.

Prevention is the only panacea.

Also, do not ask me what essential oil works for this as that is missing the point! Instead go drink some water and get more sleep, then call me in the morning.

Notes to self: write about why we need to “Level up on Love” and what is “internal scaffolding” and why it’s important. ✍️💗

I get so inspired talking with my clients and since it’s unethical to record our conversations during our sessions (though at least one client has said they’d actually like that so they could remember the great insights in their own healing that we can come to!), I’m resorting to writing down notes like this after each session.

Now I just need to find that white space where I can elaborate on these ideas so I can share them with more people...

After an inspiring conversation yesterday with a past student-turned-colleague-and-friend, I’m fired up to dive into the next layer of my studies in the art of healing. 🌿 Not a bad way to spend this rainy Imbolc morning.

So loving this space right now. 💗 looking forward to the stirrings of Spring and the coming of Imbolc tomorrow. 🌱 Plus, tomorrow begins “Redo Month” which means we have another beautiful chance to move closer to making the changes we desire to create in ourselves and the world. 🌎 what do you want to create? 💫

...that’s why I write, to get to the simple answers (eventually).⁣
✍️ ⁣
Finally finished this book, mostly with morning pages. But as I move forward, I’m thinking of combining morning pages into my “regular journal” as a way to just consolidate.⁣

Do you have a writing practice or ever tried morning pages (or a writing brain dump no matter what time of day)?⁣

I once had a car with a bumper sticker on it that said, “Don’t follow me, I’m following my bliss.” I wasn’t sad to say bye to the car, but the sticker always served as a great reminder to keep asking, “what is my bliss?”

I probably haven’t seen that car for the better half of a decade but I try to keep reminders that I have the power to choose to follow what gives me energy, or, if I’m not paying attention, what depletes it.

One of the number one things I’ve been following lately that puts me alignment with my bliss and making choices that support that is movement.

Friends, more movement has been a total game-changer. I didn’t realize how much of my “bliss” could be unlocked by regular exercise. Of course, my head knew that was probably true, but my body had to experience it before the mind got on board.

What are you following? How can you align yourself to follow what brings you joy?

Massage can help! 🙌

It’s the end of my first week back to work after the holidays, and I’m still in awe that I get to help you heal AS MY JOB. 🥰

I’m trained in therapeutic massage that takes a structural approach to chronic pain (it’s all about creating balance and support) and in breaking down emotional blockages that keep us in unhealthy patterns of both mind and body. A.K.A. I want to help you by treating ALL of you.

Your body is designed to find balance and strength within on its own, I can just help you continue to do that ever better.

Let me know if it’s time to get you on my table.
