The Strong Daffodil

Don't forget about yourself this holiday season. I am guilty of giving to everyone and never myself so I know how hard it is to set time for yourself. Remember to rest and take it slow, Remember to give back to yourself. The holiday season is full of love and excitement but can also be heavy and emotional... so please take care.

This picture makes me happy. I took a walk with my kid's and we found "little mushrooms hiding from the rain and surviving the harsh weather"

Which is what has sparked this though which is now a post:

We're all surviving the harsh weather brought to us in our lives. We are all walking through life with different things to survive. Some of us already have come out the other side, and some are still walking through the stormy days. I see it in my clients. I speak to my clients about their lives, what is happening, what has happened, and what's to come. I see all my clients as warriors and survivors. I will always admit life is hard no matter who you are or what you have.

My clients are brave. They are healing from so much. Mentally, physically, and emotionally, they are always fighting the weather around them. The biggest compliment is to know I am a safe space for them to hide and rest. They come to me to fuel their fire, to warm up, to top up, however you want to say it. They have all come here to keep going.

Whatever you're going through, I will be a safe space for rest and to regroup... even if you get lost out there, you cable always come back here with open arms. Don't let life take you too far away.

Some clients have fought cancer, depression, relationship struggles, abuse, addiction, kidney failure, and major medical diagnosis. Some are coming to terms with diagnoses, which make their future into a maze. They will have to navigate. Some are newly solo parents, and some have lost a loved one.... they all come and know support is constant, and judgment is nowhere in sight.

I am thankful for all of you walking through life and stopping in here with me. You are strong, you are beautiful, and you are so loved.

Marketing post: how I feel about them.... here we go;

I absolutely hate when I make a post about a new treatment on my menu. I really dislike how sterile they look, how they read, how they make me feel and how boring it must be for you guys to see "come get this amazing thing from me!!!" Kind of post. I hate that I have to make these post occasionally about new treatments and new products.
I am very proud to be able to add treatments to my menu of course and you wont know about them if I dont talk about them somewhere publicly, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth how its not a 'normal lisa/daffodil' post.
I genuinely love being honest with all of you. I love sharing my happiness and tranquility within my career here... so I think I'm going to stop with the boring product post, thats not to say i will not be promoting myself or my products and treatments because I LOVE telling you about them and my experience however I do want this business, this adventure and this journey to reflect me and what I belive in.

When I see fellow therapist in my industry throwing post up only about their deals I dont feel its authentic. I dont feel like there is any personal connection between client and therapist. It feels sad and distant which i do not support. I absolutely love my clients and I love the honesty in our relationships, of course I started a business to make money doing what I love and what I'm good at doing and I feel that marketing post are just dry and the opposite of my natural nature and maybe even "my brand"

Know i always have never things happening.
Know i am always thinking of new treatments, combinations, deals and working new local brands.
Know I am always looking out for your best
interest in our sessions and between sessions.
Know my post are genuine
Know I will always write honestly about my career, life, products, partnerships and business 🧡

I'm so thankful for all of your loyalty and support while I do things my way.

Christmas is approaching, and money is on our mind, we want to provide the biggest and the best for our friends and families so we work harder for the reward of time off and the funds to pay for all the experiences... I get it. I'm a mom with the same goals, but with all these extra stresses and hours, we need to make sure we give back to ourselves and not allow the extra hours to take hold and sacrifice our self care.
Time and money are precious in this holiday season - im offering a Drstress Bundle available through my vagaro booking app.

30 minutes facial massage and 15-minute foot pamper.

Why a facial massage?
Many reasons, mostly stress related. We hold so much tension in our face, around the eyes, lips, ears, in the jaw... all over the scalp and into our neck. Think about how often you have caught yourself clinching your jaw, how tired your eyes are from the lights of the road with the long periods of darkness we currently have or looking at the screens for long hours of work.
Dry skin from the cold, windy weather, and the dry heating inside our homes and offices.

Why do feet need a pamper?
- most people love a foot massage, we wear boots and walking shoes in the muddy terrain, and we step differently in this soggy weather. If you're anything like me when you are stressed, you flex your feet and never fully relax your full body.
Our feet are cooped up in our footwear and need a break from the constant contact of cotton socks drying out the skin. So why not have warm towels wrapped around your feet, a calm exfoliate and moisturizing mask applied followed by some Oleo foot cream?

You deserve time even if it's 45 minutes of calm before the storm of parties, family, in-laws, kids, crowded decorated stores....
Heck you can add Mother Sage CBD body oil to your treatments as well to try something new, or a warm wax Nudi massage candles back massage to your Bundle as well 🧑‍🎄 🎅
