9/30/24 12pm Update: Mules and equipment are loaded, and the first big batch of supplies has been purchased and loaded as well. Thanks to so many for partnering with us so we can provide even more help!! We have two fully loaded trucks and 20' stock trailers heading to WNC for assistance!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻,
🙏🏻🙏🏻We have added our personal Venmo to use for those asking about helping now, as we keep getting reports of errors on the Venmo link we had listed. So you will see the link now says Michele Toberer. LAST FOUR DIGITS OF PHONE is 1383. We will put the other link back up as soon as it is resolved. All funds will be transferred to use for another supply purchase later today or tomorrow!

We have been overwhelmed with the amount of support and encouragement received about our efforts to pack supplies in by mule trains to those affected by Hurricane Helene. We will continue to return messages as we can. Many have asked how they can help. We're posting a Venmo link for Mountain Mule Packers to assist with purchasing necessary supplies and fuel for these efforts. Together, we can definitely make a difference to those inaccessible and in need! Again, we'll be headed out in the morning, and will continue to reply as quickly as possible to those in need!

"In the shadows, shame thrives on silence and secrecy. But when we speak our truth in a sacred circle, where we are not just heard but truly felt, shame loses its grip. It starves, it fades away. Holding space for a woman to release her pain, her joy, her rawness without judgment is a primal act of protection. It is tending to the soil of her soul, ensuring that no toxic roots can take hold again. When we create a space where vulnerability is honored as our birthright, where stories are told with courage and without fear, shame dies a necessary death. This is the power of women standing guard for each other, of healing with horses, of reclaiming our scars as part of our sacred journey. It is raw, it is real, and it is our divine purpose."

Acid-suppressing drugs are among the worst health offenders, and their overuse stems from the lack of understanding of stomach acid's role in the body.

BAYLOR UNIVERSITY PUBLISHES LARGEST STUDY EVER ON MASSAGE THERAPY USE

July 2024

"Many people receive massage therapy and for many reasons. But according to a new study – the largest and most comprehensive ever conducted on the subject – the prevalence of visits to massage therapists is higher than one might have imagined and the reasons may be surprising."

“What our study shows is that it’s probably not helpful any longer to label massage as an ‘alternative’ therapy, with all of the marginality that the term conveys.”

“Licensed massage therapists ought to be respected as mainstream practitioners, whose profession provides a therapeutic approach not just to address pain and functional challenges but to foster wellness and overall well-being, physical and emotional.

Everyone can benefit from working with a skilled massage therapist. They’re the hidden gems in the healthcare system.” - Jeff Levin, Ph.D., M.P.H., University Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health. (Robert Rogers/Baylor University)

I have had several people ask, so I wanted to make a post about this….
If you have received a gift certificate from a friend/family member or through donation, that was purchased from me (Tami Rawls) at Selah, NO WORRIES. I will be honoring those gift certificates at Revive. You will still contact me to schedule and I will be sure you know where to go for your massage.
If you aren’t sure if that certificate was purchased from me at Selah, it will have my signature on it and my name/number is highlighted in PINK 💖😊
