You’re not alone if you’ve been feeling the immensity of weight of what’s been happening in our world of late. I have found myself pondering new depths of the relevance of the movement of Woman, Life, Freedom, as a call for a stand all across the world.
And in my practice as a massage therapist, as a human called to this ancient practice of care, it hit me with visceral force lately - it is a powerful mantra for what i wish to stand for in my work.
Supporting and empowering women is a huge part of what drives me. Remembering the innate knowledge, the intuition that is so much the gift and the power of women, and honouring it. Resisting ideologies that seek to diminish feminine wisdom. Holding space for the depth and complexity of emotion and experience that a woman carries. Reminding her of her strength.
My ultimate goal is to help people feel alive. To live life as fully as they can, allowing themselves to rest and repair, to be cared for, and to swim in deeper waters within themselves when they feel able to let go into them. This space of safety, I hold so very very dear and sacred, as so many face so much adversity.
And lastly I wish for all humans to have the freedom to receive care, to be seen as individuals whose lives matter. And for them to have the agency to extend that care and freedom to the more than human world, the natural, living world we are all a part of and without which we’re nothing.
My heart is with the people of Iran in this dark time, and their courage to resist, to fight, emboldens me to do what I do here with as much mana as i can summon. As I am so encouraged by all the beautiful souls around me who fight for positive change, who make the worlds around them brighter.
Peace,
