Relax Naturally A massage designed to fit you and your life style.

01/02/2026

Goodbye 2025 you showed me a lot. I think this is the most traveled, most grown, most gained, most learned I have ever had in a year. Enriched my inner world and outermost world. Gained new friends gained new family members. Allowed the most love. Allowed the most peace 🤍 life was an adventure and boy did I take full advantage.

2026 will be just as fun! With some adventures and some growing old roots back 🤗 and I can’t wait for the curveballs and the challenges!

✨ Back in the flow & feeling GOOD ✨

After taking the time my body truly needed to recover from the flu, I’m finally fully healthy, deeply rested, and genuinely excited to be back to work starting Monday.

The house is detoxified, cleaned, aired out, and reset — and so is my nervous system. There’s something powerful about letting yourself fully heal before jumping back in.

❄️ Winter months are tough on our immune systems.
Less sunlight, colder air, more stress, tighter muscles, slower circulation — it all adds up. When the body is constantly in “defense mode,” it doesn’t get the chance to repair.

✨ This is where massage becomes medicine.
Massage can support your immune system by:
• Increasing circulation & lymphatic flow
• Reducing stress hormones that suppress immunity
• Helping your body detox naturally
• Improving sleep (your body heals most when you rest)
• Bringing the nervous system out of survival mode

If your body has felt heavy, run-down, tense, or “off” this winter — that’s your sign.

I’m so grateful to do work that supports real healing, and I can’t wait to be back in the room with you all 💆‍♀️🌿

📅 Booking resumes Monday
Let’s help your body move into spring feeling supported, grounded, and strong.

New Year. New Nervous System.

This year isn’t about pushing harder, fixing yourself, or becoming someone new.
It’s about cultivating calm.
It’s about teaching your body that it’s safe to rest.

Chronic stress keeps the nervous system stuck in fight or flight — tightening muscles, disrupting digestion, clouding the mind, and stealing deep rest.
Massage works on a vagus nerve level, gently guiding your body back into rest & digest.

✨ Slower breath
✨ Softer muscles
✨ Deeper sleep
✨ A regulated nervous system
✨ A sense of peace you can actually feel

Massage isn’t a luxury.
It’s a regulation tool.
A reminder to your body that it doesn’t have to be on guard anymore.

If your New Year intention is peace, presence, and feeling safe in your body again —
this is your invitation to begin.

🕊️ Let this be the year you choose calm.

🌿 End of Year Reflection + Welcoming 2026

Relax Naturally

As this year comes to a close, I’m taking a moment to pause, breathe, and honor how far Relax Naturally has come.
This business has never been about rushing, grinding, or pushing bodies past their limits—it’s always been about listening, restoring, and coming back home to yourself.

2025 taught me a lot about boundaries, sustainability, and trusting the slower pace. About choosing depth over volume. About remembering that healing happens when we feel safe, supported, and seen.

As we step into 2026, my intention for Relax Naturally is clear:

✨ More presence
✨ More education
✨ More intentional healing
✨ More community

🌱 2026 Goals for Relax Naturally:

• Create more space for nervous-system focused bodywork
• Expand lymphatic, fascia, and restorative sessions
• Host small, intentional workshops around emotional release, self-massage, and inner work
• Continue working with artists, events, and wellness spaces in a way that feels aligned and sustainable
• Build offerings that support long-term healing, not quick fixes
• Protect rest, balance, and integrity—because healed practitioners create safer healing spaces

This space will always be for the people who are ready to slow down, soften, and reconnect with their bodies in a way that feels respectful and real.

Thank you to everyone who trusted me with your body, your stories, and your healing this year. I’m so grateful to walk into 2026 with clarity, intention, and a full heart.

Here’s to rest, regulation, and a deeply grounded year ahead 🤍

This year, gratitude feels different.
It feels deeper… rooted… earned.

I’ve walked through some of the heaviest doors of my life,
and somehow I came out softer — not harder.
This has been a year of truth-telling, ego-shedding,
shadow-walking and soul-rebirthing.

Peru cracked me open in ways I still don’t fully have words for.
My body spoke, my ancestors whispered,
and the parts of me I abandoned long ago
came home again.

I’ve grieved.
I’ve released.
I’ve reclaimed.

And through all of it, gratitude didn’t come as excitement —
it came as peace.
The kind of peace you feel when you finally exhale
after holding your breath for years.

I’m grateful for the woman I used to be
because she survived what should’ve broken her.
I’m grateful for the woman I am becoming
because she is choosing a life rooted in presence, not pressure.
And I am deeply grateful for the woman I am right now —
learning, healing, expanding, and remembering her power.

I’m grateful for my home.
For the land that holds us.
For the seeds we’ve planted — literally and spiritually —
and for the ecosystem Michael and I are creating
with our own hands,
our own love,
and our own vision for a slower, more intentional life.

I’m grateful for the people who stayed.
The people who showed up.
The people who loved me in moments
when I couldn’t recognize myself.
And the people who walked away —
because even their absence created space for my awakening.

Mostly, I’m grateful for the rebirth of me —
the softness, the strength, the intuition,
and the knowing that I am exactly where I’m meant to be.

This Thanksgiving, I’m not just giving thanks.
I’m honoring the chapters that shaped me
and the new ones I am stepping into
with an open heart, steady breath,
and a soul that finally feels free.

🧡🍂
If you’re reading this, I hope you give yourself permission
to find gratitude in your becoming —
not just in your blessings.
Your evolution is something worth thanking, too.

✨ Gratitude starts with your body.
Before we rush into cooking, planning, gifting, hosting… take a moment to thank the body that carries you through every season.

Your fascia.
Your breath.
Your nervous system.
Your heart that keeps showing up.

This Thanksgiving, let’s shift the focus from “doing more” to appreciating the vessel that holds it all.

🧡 Thanksgiving Special:
1-hour sessions through November
Sliding scale: $70–$100/hr based on what you can pay.

Your peace matters—especially now.
DM to book or ask questions.

Book when you feel ready — your nervous system will thank you.🍂

As the holiday season ramps up, so do the symptoms we tend to ignore:

• the swelling and heaviness
• the tension that won’t melt
• the anxious buzzing in the chest
• the brain fog + fatigue
• the feeling of being one thing away from shutting down

Your body isn’t failing you — it’s speaking.
It’s asking for a pause, a breath, a reset.

At Relax Naturally, my work isn’t just massage.
It’s nervous system regulation.
It’s lymphatic support.
It’s fascia release.
It’s creating a space where your body finally feels safe enough to let go.

Because you can meditate, journal, burn sage, or set intentions…
but if your tissues are holding stress, trauma, and inflammation, your soul can’t fully exhale.

This season, give yourself the gift of grounding.
Let your body be held.
Let your system soften.
Let your healing actually land.

And because I know money feels tight for so many right now, my holiday sliding scale is still active:
$70–$100 per hour — you choose what you can afford, no questions asked.
My space is for comfort, not pressure.

If your body has been whispering (or screaming) for support…
I’m here.
And I’d be honored to help you find your way back to yourself.

Shadow Priestess Tone (Magnetic & Transformative)

Something is burning in the collective air — can you feel it?
The veils are thin. Shadows are rising.
Persephone walks again — not to punish, but to awaken.

This is the descent before the rebirth.
The darkness where the truth refuses to stay buried.
And the goddess asks each of us:

“Who will you be when you emerge from this?”

Many are mistaking this heaviness for chaos —
But it’s actually purification.
The death of the false self. The unraveling of illusion.

We are being called to stand in both our softness and our power —
to embody holy water and hellfire.
To love without shrinking, and to burn without apology.

This season, rise as Persephone would:
Queen of death, bringer of spring.
Unfazed by the dark — because she remembers she is the light. 🌑🔥🌷

🔥 The Persephone Season

There’s a stirring in the dark right now — can you feel it?
It’s the descent before the bloom. The quiet before the return.

Persephone reminds us that shadow work isn’t punishment — it’s preparation.
The world feels heavy, distorted, and raw because we’re being shown what can no longer live in the light.

For many of us, this winter isn’t about hiding — it’s about reclaiming.
Reclaiming strength that was once survival.
Reclaiming softness that was once shamed.
Reclaiming our own sovereignty between darkness and dawn.

She whispers:

“Who will you be when you emerge from the darkness?”

This is not a season to fear.
It’s a season to remember.
To rise rooted. To burn clean.
To trust that even in the underworld, we are still the bringers of spring. 🌑🌸
