It's been a while since I gave an update. I've been adjusting to being a mom of 3! Happy to announce the birth of our son James Jared weighing in at 8 lbs 5 oz. He was born May 3rd and we are in love with our healthy chunky little man. I was successful in having a natural birth for the third time and only labored for about 6 hours! I believe fully that our bodies were made to do incredible things and I am reminded time and time again that each and every human being is a miracle!
We are doing well and I love being home raising my children. As I have been experiencing soreness, muscle weakness, and fatigue in these last few weeks, I can't help but to think of my clients! I hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy especially at this time! In my last post I gave a referral and would love to hear from you. You can text or email to let me know the updates on YOU. I feel the pull to continue to give clients what I can at this time, and I hope gathering information will serve you in some form. I think what I will start doing is more blog posts giving helpful information, tips and tricks, thoughts and interesting facts on natural health concerning both mind and body. I also realize that reading something valuable, may not be AS valuable as putting in the effort to doing the work. So as I give tips throughout my blog posts, I encourage you to be consciously active! Be a conscious creator of the life you want. I sure am grateful for following my instincts to becoming a massage therapist. I want to share a beautiful written article that I have kept with me since massage school and I think there's something in it perhaps you can take into your own life. All I really need to know I learned in Massage School Be punctual, prepared, and keep good notes. Wash your hands. When you are ready, the perfect teacher will arrive. Knowledge of Greek and Latin prefixes is beneficial. Don’t panic, tests are for your own growth – if you falter you can, and will, repeat the lesson. Nurture your Self. Strength lies in balance. Receive massage. Eat your vegetables. Drink plenty of water. Be cheerful. Exercise daily. “Ohm,” “Aah,” or just be still. Wear comfortable shoes. Create a peaceful environment. Nourish the senses: aromatic candles, meditative music, and cotton flannel sheets. Every body is sacred. Be reverent. Warm your hands. Warm the room. Warm your heart. Talk less, listen more. Live open-minded. Beware of your prejudices. Refuse gossip. Value confidentiality. Be honest. Presence and intention are paramount. Wholeheartedly attend the moment. The lightest touch can heal. Transition with ease and grace. Spirit each move. Individual responses vary. Deep pressure. Gentle rocking. Embrace the difference. Stretch. Don’t pretend to be an expert on that which you are not. Never force. Never rush. “How’s the pressure?” Care. Pain is subjective. Laughter is healing, so are tears. The body remembers. It’s never too late to ice it. Forgive. Forgive yourself. Practice. Practice. Practice. Challenge rules. Welcome possibilities. There is no routine. Let it flow. Create. Dance. Don’t forget to breathe. Deeply. Relax. Shoulders down. Knees loose. Move from your center. T rust intuition. The mind thinks, the heart knows. Believe in others. Believe in yourself and in your profession. Believe in a force greater than yourself. Be gentle, be strong, be willing and the healing power of creation will flow through to benefit all you touch. From atom to universe, we are whole and all are connected. Honor all. Judge no one. Offer freely to those in need. Continue to learn. Share your knowledge. Respect. Expect respect. Strive to grow, every day. Be open to prosperity. Accept tips. Be grateful. Follow up and follow through. Success walks a determined step. Clarify aspirations. The path will clear. Dream specifics. Doors will open. Dream big. Thoughts manifest. Never give up. Never lose hope. And above all else, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. - Jo Sodona Wish you all the best! Thanks for being apart of my journey. Keep in touch, Carlicia
