The summer sun invites us to go out and laugh together, which can make it hard to answer our body's call for rest. Here are some ideas on balance, a podcast recommendation, and a reminder of my promo for summer massage clients 🌞

Summer’s push and pull July 15, 2025 by Lukas Rowland Fire is the element of summer, and they make a good pair because the season is fun at a certain intensity, and punishing and oppressive when that energy is in excess. As the temperature fluctuates from heat wave to the more usual weather, I lik...

In times like these, I exercise some small control through voting with my wallet. I support Canada, a free Palestine, and local businesses. Read on for more:

Canadian solidarity March 20, 2025 by Lukas Rowland Disclaimer: I am going to be talking about the current geopolitical situation in this post, and if you need a break from that, this is an invitation to hit the exit ramp.

Happy Mardi Gras! For the ACTUAL Fat Tuesday, I have my third instalment in a series on how to better care for clients living in larger bodies (with weight specs on my massage table). More info in the blog post:

Fat Tuesday #3: More support, please! March 4, 2025 by Lukas Rowland Something you may take for granted when you’re out and about is whether you will be supported by various seating options: in public transit, in theatres, in restrooms. Which brings me to something I have been remiss in not addres...

Smaller acts of love February 7, 2025 by Lukas Rowland I have a curious nature, and it can be very difficult for me to redirect my energy away from learning as much as I can about all of the things now please. Lately, I’ve had to put a lot more effort into keeping my attention on my immediate circ...

Reset January 1, 2025 by Lukas Rowland As I’ve been scrolling through social media (like one does), I’ve been encountering the multitude of New Year’s messages, an overemphasis on resolutions, and fireworks and drone shows. I think it’s right and correct to wish each other good luck and good...

I am forever starting things over because a routine only works for so long before I'm bored with it. So it's important for me to reset now, and every week, and whenever else I need to. More thoughts on that here, along with an extension of my holiday promo. Let me help you shake off the last of that 2024 stress.

Metal to water December 9, 2024 by Lukas Rowland I love when the elements manifest themselves physically as the cycle of the year turns onward. It can rain at any time in the autumn, but once it’s cold enough outside, snow can accumulate and cover up the world’s colour in a blank whiteness. Inci...

Earth and transition September 22, 2024 by Lukas Rowland When in doubt, hit the textbooks!

This is a time of stillness and preparation for...
