Hello, friends!

It’s…been a minute. Life has certain revealing qualities to it that you can either ignore or face head on. This year, I have had little choice in the matter. Hah. (Thank you, Fire Horse)
Recognizing my attempts at control simply lead to irritation. This has been at the forefront of my learning.

Art!
What a wonderful way to express…everything!
I used to think I had no creative capacity, but I have started to understand that I couldn’t have been more wrong (a common denominator in my life).
Every single person has a deep well of creativity. You simply have to search for it. What does that look like? Practice. Practice with any and everything. All human art has meaning, and that meaning will be different to every person who sees it, and changes based on what phase of life they see it at.

The piece below is such a trip. Received alcohol ink from the library, which I had never heard of until yesterday, and found a mirror that a neighbor was throwing out. The result? I don’t know. What do you see in it? A meteor crashing? An alien garden?
(Also tried some on a canvas! Turned out quite nicely.)

Let me know what it shows to you!

It is an extremely interesting inner journey having been in a profession dedicated to the service of others for 1/3rd of my life.
I knew since I was young I wanted to do something that would directly help people, however, I didn’t realize what you have to give up if you want that aid to come from a place of pure, and unconditional help.

There’s a way to help people that keeps them as the “helped” and you as the “helper”. You can give a human who is struggling help in such a way that it keeps them struggling, and keeps your ego buoyant.

To “Let no demand or insistence [of the ego] creep in to stain the purity of the self-giving and the sacrifice.”
It sounds so simple and elegant, but the actual work can feel messy and eternal. Yet, to be completely unattached to the fruit of your labor: to do your work for the simple purpose of knowing this is what you need to do…the joy that can be found within that is unmeasurable.

One step at a time, friends. You can only be truly alive in the moment. Follow this moment into the next and you’ll start to recognize why the birds of the air have no anxiety about tomorrow.
It all starts right here.

Be well, my friends

Hello, dear friends!

Wow, what a whirlwind of a time life has been. I feel like I can’t catch my breath. As soon as one thing is done, three more pop up!
But I just keep taking a breath, and moving forward.
It can sometimes feel like I’m stuck, but I remember that I have to get out of my head, and into my heart.
It may be helpful for you to know how it feels when your heart is open vs closed. We often ignore how we are feeling to make sure everyone else is comfortable, but it is everyone’s own duty to make sure they are stable, not your duty.
This has been a very tangible lesson I’ve learned. And though some of the lessons that have gotten me to where I am have been difficult, they have also been necessary, and I am extremely grateful for them.

I feel like I’m all over the place with this post, but life is like that sometimes.
I want to delete, correct, make things make more sense, adjust, edit, and perfect. But perfection doesn’t exist, and if it does, then everything is already perfect in whatever form it takes. Learning the creativity that exists within me has taught me this lesson well.

So be weird! Make mistakes- learn. Do your best, do your worst, be what you want. Your only limits are in your mind. Change your perspective and see the world new and fresh. Don’t let old habits and ideas keep you from living life genuinely!

Be well, my friends. Just wanted to give you a little sense of the whirlwind I’ve been on- enjoy!

Hello, friends!
I recently received another little bluebird as a gift from a very thoughtful client. I just wanted to say a big thank you! It means a ton to be thought about outside of my space.

The collection grows~

Enjoy this wonderful weekend, everyone!

Massage has been such a boon in my life.
When I was younger I had no idea what kind of job I wanted, or what direction I wanted to go in life. Massage therapy somehow found me and has been an incredible teacher since then.
It has helped me sharpen my empathy, while teaching me how to ground myself. To let go of other peoples’ “stuff”, while still caring for them. It has taught me how to listen. Not only with my ears, but with my intuition- and it continues to teach me each and every session.
I’m very grateful for massage and the gifts it has given me.

I’m curious; what’s your favorite thing about massage?

Hello, friends!

It’s been a little while since I’ve been on here.
The beginning of 2025 has been quite a journey. Personally, there has been a lot of change, a lot of hardship, and a lot of growth. And in the world? I honestly have to keep focused on myself and what’s directly around me. There’s just too much.
And that’s one of the more difficult things I’ve been working with myself in; stop focusing on other people and what’s directly around they’re thinking, but focus on myself. How am I handling myself? How am I opening myself up to the situations that arise around me? Keeping myself healthy and peaceful has been my full time job. As soon as I leave this moment to worry about the future I’ve lost it.
Just keep coming back to where you are.

Things happen
The world changes
Peace remains

Take care of yourselves

A new year has begun. How has everyone been getting on so far?
For me, I like to see each and every moment as a “new year”.
Each new moment brings with it a chance to refresh and renew your mind and body; leading to balance in your life.
Life isn’t about taking out the negative and replacing it with positive. Find the middle ground. You grow the most from difficult situations, yet life would be unbearable if that’s all there was. Life of overindulgence leads to rot and decay.
Enjoy it all. The difficult and the easy.
They each serve a purpose.

Much love, my friends ❤️

Hello, friends! As Christmas comes closer I wanted to remind you all I have the perfect gift available: Massage Gift Cards!

There are so many options when it comes to giving friends and family a gift that shows you love them, and giving them a gift of massage shows how deeply you care for their wellbeing and happiness.

You can purchase gift cards online here: https://www.vagaro.com/bluebirdmassagellc/gift-certificates

And don't forget; one of the greatest gifts you can give to your friends and family this year is just you being yourself. Gifts are awesome, and can mean a great deal, but time spent with people in earnest joy and laughter is a present no one can buy.

Have a Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays, my friends

Hello! This is Caleb's partner hijacking the page for a bit. 😁
It's Caleb's birthday today! 🥳
It has been wonderful witnessing the growth of his business and how much relief he's been able to provide to the world and its people.
I've watched him continuously learning and growing, working on himself and thus improving the quality of his work. He has such a unique style and cadence, the ability to remain deeply in the present and extend this truth and peace to those around him, including his clients. I hear so much good feedback from people who are able to not only find relief during the session, but carry it on in their lives and continue building themselves up. I think Caleb is so extraordinary in that way - he is doing the inner work that can inspire others to continue their own. And I think this helps the world be a kinder, gentler, more compassionate place. 🥰
A HUGE THANK YOU to every single client, past or present, every supporter, every friend and colleague - you are all the reason he can continue doing good work! You are supporting not just one family, but yourselves and everyone else impacted by his work. And the same goes for any person with whom we cross paths. A little positivity and kindness can have a great ripple effect.
Keep spreading all the good vibes! Thank you all. And happy birthday to Caleb! 💙💙💙

~All my love, Kristine
