A Touch of Magic

What if you paused right and took the time to thank someone who...
✨️ Supports you and your dreams
😆 Laughs at your jokes
🥰 Understands you
🫶🏻 Makes you feel like you matter
💪🏻 Nudges you to step outside your comfort zone
🤗 Embraces your uniqueness

It could be a shout out on social media, a quick text or phone call, or even a letter you put in the mail.

💖 Small gestures like this can turn someone's day/life around. Never underestimate the impact you make. ✨️

P.S. Thank you to the wonderful person who shared this delicious treat with me. 🤤 I so appreciate it!!

Do it for the plot twist 🤣😂

Do these sound familiar to anyone else? 🙈🙋🏻‍♀️

I really do 💕















P.S. Remember "good" is the label you give the situation. What if you chose to find the good in the week? Even if nothing "good" seems to happen. 🤔 You really are that powerful

Layer by layer.

We like to think of healing as a magic act.

That if we do this one thing correctly, we will be "healed" and our life will be better forever.

Unfortunately, that's not how it works.

Healing is rather like a work of art.

Layer by layer we learn, evolve, and grow.

We build small healthier habits that compound on other small healthier habits.

We peel back the layers of coping mechanisms, unhelpful beliefs, and compensation patterns.

We reinforce, integrate, and build our foundation.

One day we step back and realize that we're not the same as we used to be.

We may not be "healed" but we are certainly healthier.

And while we might not be where we want to be, we're grateful that we're not where we used to be.

Our life is better for the layer by layer approach.

Just like a work of art.

Every once in a while, be sure to step back and give yourself credit for the progress you've made that you may have missed being in the thick of it.

Chances are, you're doing a lot better than you feel you are.

P.S. 🙌🏻 Super excited to share my work in progress signage. This is 5 layers in. I have some other fun stuff I want to add on the adjacent window. It'll take time, just like healing. And it'll be fun to watch it unfold. ✨️💖✨️

"Remember, rest isn't weakness --- it's ✨️wisdom✨️. Just as butterflies do when rain threatens their delicate wings, ✨️pause✨️. Protect your energy, ✨️heal✨️, and gather strength. When the downpour passes, you'll spread your wings and ✨️soar✨️ again." ~ Vex King

Hey everyone!! I finally got the online scheduling link up and running. You can visit it here: https://atouchofmagic.clinicsense.com/book/

Please note that I'm still working out a few kinks in the system. 😵‍💫

Please request to be added to the waiting list if you don't see a time/day that works for you and I can let you know if something sooner is available.

Although I usually am booking 4-6 weeks in advance. Although I did have a cancellation for tomorrow morning 😉

P.S. I just love this picture from when I was in New Zealand in February. It reminds me so much of fascia and scar tissue and how it can creep in without us realizing it. How what was once fluid and mobile becomes hard and limited. And also the magic of how it can transition back with proper space and time. 🥰 The nerd in me really loves what I do!

May you rest a little this Labor Day. And if not today, maybe schedule some in within the week? Even if it's just a few hours. ☺️

You have permission to rest. ✨️💖 In fact you deserve it. That and to be silly every once in.a while. 🤪 Yes... some bribery happened here 😂

What's one thing that's brought a smile to your face this week? Bonus points if you have a picture to share with the rest of us. 😉

These are a couple of mine.

I don't know why, but I'm just ✨️facinated✨️ by dew/rain drops on plants. They always looks so magical to me. No wonder they're in so many fairy tales.

So many thanks to Sarah at Ataraxy & Wellness for the beautiful rebranding gift!! 🌹 It absolutely brought more joy to my day and was a great way to go into the weekend. 🫶🏻

P.S. I'd highly recommend you experience her ahhh-mazing Reiki sessions. They're so worth it! She hasn't released her October dates yet, but you can always put yourself on her radar to be notified.

Take this as nature's reminder to take a breath and unclench your butt cheeks. 🤣 Maybe even your jaw too while your at it? 🤔 And perhaps drop your shoulders. They don't need to be earrings. 🙃

P.S. Photo taken at my MIL's place yesterday. 🙌🏻 Nature for the win!
