Honoring the energy of fall, I am letting go today of my praxis as a studio based massage and acupuncture therapist. For the last 5 years, I have been holding space (three spaces in total!) for welcoming people in pain. I'm thankful for everyone that trusted they were in good hands to support their healing. I hope you got something good out of this.
The reason behind this is that I am using more time on other activities and passions of mine on a day to day basis (food and plants life). Holding a vulnerable healing room every week comes with responsibility and requires a sharp presence. As I value consistency, right now I can't or don't want to commit to holding such space regularly.
21st October I will make an intimate gathering for celebrating what was and letting it go. It will be light and short, maybe raise a glass or two. If you want to join, send me a DM.
What's coming now?
The studio is closing for regular appointments. There will still be hybrid and nomadic happenings, which I have already started to do the last two years or so: interventions in organizations, workplaces, music festivals, but also more community and donation based events.
The moto is 'Slowly but surely'.
I'll take the coming darker months to foment about all of this.
For now, let's close this chapter, with joy, pride and yet a heavy heart.
Always yours,
Shifa's touch
