Therapy By The Sea

I often do random entries in the drawing for people who are in "knead" of charity cases. If I end up drawing one of these entries, I put it on a list for the right person to receive it. I then place faith in God that who is meant to receive any that are drawn will find their way to me.

The entries are based on what I found to make the entry coupled with some other interaction that I feel deserves an entry as well. I have been using those a clues as to what type of person, and what their situation is, should get the $150 gift card toward a session with me.

My stipulations with these charity sessions is that it needs to be someone who hasn't or wouldn't come in to see me otherwise. I am looking for genuine charity cases referred by someone who sees this.

And well, I pulled one of these entries for January 2026. So I now have a free massage session to give away by this time next year.

Based on the "clues" I am looking for someone who fills these requirements:

A mother, with medical issues, who is fnancially struggling and likely earns less than $1500 a month.

Other random clues?
Dairy
Needles
Cookies

When I was a child, I would examine every bottle I found to see if a message was inside. When the song "Message in a Bottle" came out it fueled my imagination even more. It made me realize that every container has a history, a story and journey to make.

Our family was always very frugal and I grew up with a mother who did a lot of canning, so recycling was always a given in our household.

We have created a modern culture, though, where more energy, money and thought is put into creating an endless supply of packaging and less on how to drastically reduce, reuse or entirely elimate the overload of packaging going on right now.

So, what would happen if you mix the "Message in a Bottle," with the ideas of making a wish and/or saying prayer?

It can be something as simple as .. so and so needs a friend, a favorite inspirational quote, a recipe to try, a Bible verse, or something you want to say but have no idea to say it to. The possibilities are endless

So, I have now put a tote outside my office door with a few bottles inside, a few inspirational phamlets, and some "While You Were Out" note pads to write on. Anyone can drop by anonymously to spread some inspiration.

Let me know. "What would you refill this with?"

The Trick or Treat walk on Main Street, in Cambria, for the children is tonight.

No candy here, but between 3pm to 9pm, I will be offering mini chair massages tonight for any who decide to wander my way.

Messages in a bottle: I also am a year round prayer and wish finder. So, do you have prayer or wish to leave or pass on?

Seed project packets. Teach you child how to grow plants and trees!

I am going through storage and downsizing. Lots of items to give away. Much more than seen here. If you don't see something you need in the give away box, just ask? Some items are too big.

My business is upstairs, off of Sheldon, above the flower shop, Cambria Inspirations. I look forward to seeing those who feel the spirit move them my way. ☺️
