I am Confident!

Selfcare today!
Take some me time…sit and reflect.
It’s been 10 years when I stepped into this very scared and very excited “I’m going to open a Spa space”
Lots of lessons learned, lots of training, heart breaks, new friends, old friends, burnout, fun, community gatherings…..but no regrets
Sitting with the new moon tonight to reflect and now manifest bigger and better!
Be careful what you ask for.

To do list -client and cleaning day. I have to catch up tomorrow.

This Tuesday, we’re welcoming a professional photographer into the space to capture what lives here beyond the walls.

The light.
The calm.
The intention.

This photoshoot is about honoring a space created for massage, rest, and deep restoration, where the body can soften, the nervous system can settle, and healing is supported at its own pace.

This space holds grounding massage sessions, quiet exhalations, and moments of intentional care. Every detail has been chosen to support relaxation, balance, and reconnection.

Stay close, the reveal is coming soon.

The weather is not fair… but we are back 1/24
Making Space for Menopause: Sister Circle is happening tomorrow evening, and this is your gentle reminder that you don’t have to walk this season alone.

Menopause can feel isolating, the changes, the questions, the shifts in your body and emotions. This circle was created as a safe, supportive space for real conversation, shared wisdom, and sisterhood.

Focus Topic:
Menopause & Weight Gain
A compassionate, honest conversation about what’s happening in our bodies, without shame, pressure, or quick fixes.

Rooted in collaboration over competition, this gathering centers connection, shared experience, and support over comparison.

Tomorrow | January 17, 2026
6–8 PM
6E Kinney St, Newark, NJ 07102
Donation: $20

We’re ready to welcome you exactly as you are.

Self-Care That Actually Supports You

Self-care isn’t about doing more.
It’s about slowing down enough to listen to what your body truly needs.

That’s why I created a simple Self-Care Guide, to help you:
• reconnect with your body
• create calm in your daily rhythm
• support your nervous system gently
• build small, sustainable self-care habits
No pressure. No perfection. Just intentional care.

Your body deserves softness, not strain.

A gentle daily journal to help you make sense of the changes, with compassion, not pressure.

Why massage supports your nervous system

When your nervous system is overwhelmed, your body stays in “go mode.”
That’s often when tension, fatigue, sleep issues, and hormonal stress begin to show up.

Massage helps support your nervous system by:
Activating the parasympathetic (rest + restore) response
Reducing muscle tension held from chronic stress
Supporting better sleep and emotional regulation

This isn’t indulgence, it’s regulation.
It’s giving your body permission to slow down and reset.

If your body has been holding more than usual lately, massage can help bring you back into balance and support your overall wellness.

Welcome to a new week at Irie

As this week begins, we’re choosing presence over pressure. There’s no need to rush into January trying to “catch up.” Your body has been through a lot, the holidays, the cold, the constant doing.

This is your reminder to move gently and care intentionally.

Weekly intention:
I honor my body by listening to what it needs.

Here’s what’s coming up at Irie this week
• Open appointments for massage and bodywork
• Detox and cleansing services to help your body reset
• Our upcoming Sister Circle a space to slow down, connect, and feel supported

If you’ve been feeling tense, tired, or disconnected, this is your invitation to pause and receive care. You don’t have to wait until you’re completely depleted to rest.

Visit iriesalonandspa.com to book your appointment or explore what’s coming up this week.

I’m deeply honored to be featured in HER Magazine by Glambitious®.

This feature shares the heart behind Irie Salon & Spa, not just what I do, but why this work exists.

For more than three decades, my path has been shaped by one core belief:
Women deserve spaces where they can pause, breathe, be seen, and truly heal.

Irie was born from lived experience from seasons of exhaustion, from learning how easily rest gets postponed, and from witnessing how deeply the body responds when care is intentional and sacred.

This work is more than beauty.
It’s restoration.
It’s wholeness.
It’s honoring the body, especially through midlife transitions, with compassion, presence, and respect.

Being recognized for this journey is humbling. But more than that, it’s affirming. It reminds me that spaces rooted in care, ritual, and community truly matter.

If your body has been asking for more gentleness. If you’ve been carrying too much for too long. If you’re ready to reconnect with yourself in a deeper way.
