You know human bodies are mostly water, right? Need I say more?

Survival instincts (stress) are awesome...on an acute scale.

Long term...not so good (as described in this photo).

The key to stress is not to deny or avoid it completely. Rather, learn to acknowledge the bodily functions you experience in reaction to stress. Notice if the stress is caused by a thought, or a real threat/thrill. Be gentle with your human self for being human! As you become aware, you become empowered to take control of your life, so your life isn't controlling you. You also learn to have more compassion for others who are stressed...which is pretty much everyone we know.

This is connective tissue in your body. When your nervous system feels a need to protect you for any reason (physical or emotional), this tissue hardens. When this tissue is hard, it creates 2,000 lbs of pressure on everything it's surrounding and holding together. That's like two horses standing on your nerves, muscles, tendons, etc. in places where this fascia is hard. Humans aren't great at telling their own nervous systems to relax so this tissue stays hard (and can for years) causing all sorts of issues. I'm trained to read your nervous system to find where it's holding and to release said "trauma" so there's a softening again.

Come see me...it feels like magic.

Happy International Women's Day! 💜

It's important to sit back and take in the view. As we try to figure out what it means, we realize all we can do is stand and notice what our eyes see, what our ears hear, what our body feels. The fact is, there is nothing to do. We just are. Does your reality reflect an inner peace?

The more awareness you have of your human form, the more you can appreciate its miraculous nature. The more you have gratitude towards that experience, the more you can love yourself. And the more you love yourself, the more you love others.
