Winter is a great time for massage, especially hot stone massage. Why?

In the colder months, sometimes circulation tends to feel a little sluggish. Massage helps encourage healthy circulation, especially on the extremities. It can help get things moving again.

In colder months, we have decreased sun exposure. Massage can help brighten your day!

In colder months, your feet and hands might especially feel cold. Hot stones can genuinely warm things up!

In colder months, we might wish we could experience physical touch more. Massage therapy is a great alternative to cuddling with your favorite person.

Massage therapy is a great cold season activity, one of my favorites! I've got a few openings coming up - give me a call if you'd like some help getting through the cold season.

Have any feelings stuck inside you? Have trouble letting them go?

One of the side effects of emotional clutter can be chronic constipation. From the book, "Feelings Buried Alive Never Die”, we learn that slow digestion can have roots in the following complicated emotional states:

Constantly fretting
Unwilling to release old feelings & beliefs
Resisting the flow of life
Blocking what you want to say
Feelings of anxiety
Unresolvable problems/determined to carry on (p. 238)

Manual therapy can do a great deal to help with digestive upsets. And while we work on the body together, it's also important to consider what emotions are contributing, and be willing to come alongside them with support.

If you have digestive struggles, please consider emotional supports alongside your bodywork, such as IPT or hypnotherapy. I would love to help you with this.

From The Barral Institute, some interesting thoughts on the emotional-physical connection in the body:

"Research has demonstrated for years now the effect that emotions have in relation to dysfunctions in the body. For instance, children who live in stressful home environments develop ulcers at an age as early as six. Barral says, 'The mind likes to use the organs and the plexi as an outlet.' We have learned... that there is a somato-visceral component linking structure to the viscera. As the mind discharges emotions to the organs, this causes feedback via the nervous system back to the spine. So, again, what may present as a biomechanical dysfunction can also have an emotional relationship."

You may notice an abundance of grey skies lately. I certainly have. What is the blessing behind the grey? Or underneath the grey? Can any be found?

I’ve been pondering this a great deal this week, and can highlight one benefit which is quite helpful for me, personally. The grey skies force us to face the hidden stuff we’d rather ignore, and do business with it.

Sunny skies make it easy to play. Easy to get out and about. Easy to stay in busy distractedness.

Grey skies make being outside and out and about less enticing. Especially if there’s rain included. Bleh.

This naturally tends to assist people who are chronically living in avoidance, to face their inner stuff. This is why a lot of people struggle in this kind of weather. Statistically, it’s not a good season for emotions.

Yes, Vitamin D is missing in the northern latitudes and yes there are myriad of reasons why we need sun. I sure crave it! 🌞 But if we get to endure this relentless cloud cover, why not take opportunity to face some of the stuff we’re avoiding, and work at cleaning out the emotional baggage we carry? We could call it “emotional detox season”.

Perhaps if we take this time to do some emotional work, making good use of the hibernation season, the sunny season will be exponentially more fun and rewarding? Definitely worth a try.

If you or someone you know is ready for some emotional housecleaning, or looking for relief from emotional or physical pain, please reach out!

Applauding all those who are doing the work of emotional healing in this season. Keep going!! You’re doing great!! 💛🩵💚

One of the most common things that I have advised people to do after an IPT session is to get a cheap notebook and some smooth writing pens. IPT sessions can be intense because we dig out and break down negative beliefs that we hold, that no longer serve us. Perhaps they were placed there unknowingly when we were extremely young and impressionable little sponges. Perhaps they came more recently.

Inevitably after some IPT sessions, there is still some unraveling that takes place, as new beliefs are restored to their rightful place in that root system. It’s like pulling a deep w**d out of the ground. The ground takes a little bit of time to resettle. Sometimes days. Sometimes more sessions are needed, even.

For this reason, I encourage having a notebook where you can continue processing and writing the thoughts that come and go.

Using this notebook has become one of the most favorite parts of my day. It has grown from simply being a venting session in a scrap notebook that I might make time for, to my precious time with Jesus that I can’t function without. I write letters to him, and often I can write and receive insights from him back that are directly recorded into my journal. It has truly become a cherished daily practice. I can’t encourage you enough to incorporate a freewriting practice into your day. 💛🩵💚

Are you like me, wondering and assessing what went right / wrong in 2025? Considering what needs to change for 2026? How to step things up?

I’m sitting here studying this most beautiful x-ray image of someone’s colon and re**um. Wondering to what degree it is healthy?

I get to feel these tissues all the time, and know that each client brings a differing degree of health in this area. What does a congested colon feel like? How much nutrition is absorbed? How much brain fog, inflammation or joint pain, or other disease happens when the colon is clogged like peanut butter in a kitchen sink?

How much chronic constipation leads to chronic diarrhea? Chronic pain?

This year I invite you to improve the health and stealthiness of your belly! Come try a Visceral Manipulation session! Let’s feel what’s going on and help things along!

Consider a step further and let’s talk about Cleanses! I have a group of over 100 participants and friends about to start a 90 day Cleanse on January 5th. I’d love to invite you to join me! Please reach out for more info or to participate. 💛🩵💚

How awesome is jalapeño tincture? Here’s a holistic herbalism tip for those of you with chickens that stop laying eggs in the winter.

Place the seeds and inner membranes of a few jalapeños in a jar, and cover them with 80+ proof vodka. Let this sit in a dark cupboard for some weeks or even months. When your chickens’ water freezes over in the winter, add a small dose of the tincture to some of their winter water. Just a teaspoon or two per gallon is all you need.

The little dose of tincture warms their bodies from the inside out, and ours gently started laying eggs in what often is a dormant season.

We went from 0 eggs over the last few months, to 8 in one day, just less than a week of adding tincture to their water. We have just over a dozen chickens so this is a fantastic improvement!

I’m thrilled to have eggs from my girls again. Having chickens is something I would encourage for anyone who is able to keep them!
