Have you ever tried Massage and Mindfulness Meditation for Anxiety???

Mindfulness is a mental, physical and emotional state of being where one simply remains focused on the present moment. It’s a way to free yourself from outside thoughts, emotions and simply exist in the experience of “now”. When practicing mindfulness, thoughts relating to the future and past are simply “observed” as a bystander and allowed to pass on by, without allowing oneself to engage in the thought or emotion

While you may have heard of Mindfulness meditation and its profound positive effects on mental health and wellbeing, there’s a simple way to integrate its concepts and power into your next massage.

To practice mindfulness during your massage, keep your mind focused on your massage therapist’s touch. It can act as a wonderful focal point that helps keep your mind in the present moment. When your therapist encounters a painful area, don’t try to distract yourself away from the experience. Instead, take a few deep, calming breaths and imagine that you’re breathing directly into the painful spot.
As you breathe out, imagine the pain being dissipated and pushed out of your body with each breath. You’ll be amazed at how quickly you can teach your body to “let go” of the tension and pain. I hope so too.

Are you having the Winter Blues, better known as Seasonal Affective Disorder(SAD)?

Massage Therapy has been known to help with SAD by reducing cortisol levels and increasing serotonin levels. Shorter days and colder temperatures leave many Americans feeling depressed and lethargic, yet studies show that regular massages improve mood and reset circadian rhythms, leading to better sleep and more energy.

If your looking to fend off the winter blues and find relief, try integrating massage therapy into your health maintenance routine.

Meditation, stretching, and touch are powerful tools to implement into our lives!
Make your appointment for your next Thai Massage or Yomassage class today.

This article in Psychology Today states “Typically, doctors prescribe medication to combat inflammation. However, there’s growing evidence that another way to combat inflammation is by engaging the vagus nerve and improving “vagal tone”. This is achieved through daily habits such as yoga and meditation.

Stimulating the vagus nerve reduces inflammation and the symptoms of arthritis.
