Sanctuary Massage & Healing Arts with Britt Kline, LMT

08/20/2021

As many of you have noticed, I haven't posted in a long time! Since I am still getting requests, I am posting the most current biz news:

My massage business is closed for the foreseeable future. My office (on Albany St) is no longer mine - indefinitely closed. If I return to massage work, I will announce it here as well as the rest of my social media.

Thank you all for being such wonderful clients and friends! My mother passed away last month and I am needing a lot of space and time to process this before I take next steps in my career. I hope to be back in the next couple of years with a shift in offerings.
Stay tuned and catch you on the flipside.

Oh - feel free to contact me any time for bodywork references - so many great practitioners in this town!

My sweet Sanctuary is currently closed due to covid (and has been for many months - I’m just now getting to officially announcing on FB).

I hope to return to massage therapy one day - stay tuned for future happenings. There will be more and varied offerings to come.

Stay well, loves.

♥️♥️♥️

Yes. Yes. Yes.
Couldn’t have said it better. Thank you to the glorious (who lives somewhere near where I do which I’m super psyched about!!! Hoping for a post-covid lecture somewhere close-by.

Grateful for *everything* (even the living lessons) in my life, and for the 🔥 in my ♥️ & soul that keeps me going. I know this day is rough for so many of us — even before slapped our faces repeatedly. Love to all of you - I hope the rest of this year is as easeful as possible for every single one of us.
♥️🌙✨

Sanctuary Massage & Healing Arts will sadly be going on sabbatical for an undetermined length of time. There is so much more to this than what I can fit here, however — that means SALES are happening! 50% off ALL wonderful Delicata House aromatherapy products, and 20% off of all rice pillow heat/cold packs. That will be a separate post. Delicata House shipping is $5//order — local pickup obvs is free. DM me with orders and any questions you may have! Stay safe, y’all.
❤️🧡💛💚💜🖤💖🤎☮️

💯, plain and simple. It took me nearly 40 years to start truly accepting this about myself (sometimes life is constant change and transitions). It may be one of those things I work with for the rest of my life. Growing up in this western culture does not leave much room for this kind of acceptance.

Also, do yourself a favor and follow this wonderful human.

It’s ok if things that once felt easy now feel difficult. It’s ok if it’s taking you twice as long to do things that you were once able to do quickly.

Change takes a lot of energy.

Sometimes it’s enough just to be able to say you survived the day. ✨

Be patient, kind and gentle with yourself. We are rewriting timelines, dismantling old paradigms, and literally in a full blown revolution of consciousness. That is going to need a lot of energy, fam!!! If what used to come easy for you now feels 10X more challenging, BREATHE THROUGH THE CHANGE. If what once was working for you now is not, BREATHE THROUGH THE CHANGE. If you feel like you’re just floating in the void of unknowns, BREATHE THROUGH THE CHANGE.

As a part of the transition team, How are you surrendering to the transitions? Our body’s are going to resist change and will want us to go back to what feels safe and normal. Stay strong, embodied and grounded as you take part in advocating for + creating the world you wish to live in. 🤲🏼✨ xx

Oh my goodness, friends! It’s been too long!

I have decided to reopen August 25. Between moving, caretaking my high-risk mother and hosting a family member from the south (not to mention getting everything together for the extensive new guidelines and regulations!), this feels like the right date for me to officially reopen. Plus, GREAT NEWS: I’ll be in the office 5 (FIVE!!) days/week now, so you have epic choice in appointment times! Head over to www.sanctuarywithbritt.com to schedule.
Of course there are new guidelines describing how we can be together again. If you’re not an existing client, when I see you book I’ll send you an email with All The Info. I’m sure your body, mind and spirit could use a massage. It is my honor to be here for you. See you soon!

One of my mantras this week. Actually, it’s specifically, “I am ok” because my brain thinks I’m not, but I am when it comes down to it.

Hello beautiful Sanctuary family! Oh, how I miss you!
While we are still waiting for Sanctuary to reopen, here is a quick guide to proper self-massage for your sweet feet. These puppies work hard for us every day and are often taken for granted until they are sore and barking at us. Try this out anytime — it can be especially nice when you first wake up before setting your feet on the floor, in a bath, and my favorite: before bed.
Enjoy the selfcare!

Between massage therapy sessions, practice self-massage on one of the most sensitive areas of the body—your feet. A brisk foot massage in the morning can stimulate energy for the tasks ahead. In the evening, slow massage on the feet can help soothe the day’s stress. Follow the entire sequence in...

Authentic gratitude can be a light in our darkness. It has become essential to my daily selfcare, helping me to stay afloat, even if it’s just my head that’s still visible out of the water. What is your light today? What is keeping you from submerging completely? “Just” one thing counts. ✨🌞💛

Hello clients and those of you I haven’t yet met! Man, I miss my work and all of you. I hope your nervous systems are navigating this era with as much ease as is possible. I look forward to assisting in that ease as soon as it feels right! Our systems need to be able to rest and recover in order to continue to safely do our work in this world. Maybe your work rn is learning how to safely recover so you can get back up and at it? If so, I strongly suggest checking out for some super-pro tips & encouragement! And of course, I suggest we all get massage as soon as we are safely able. 💜

Please head over to my website for continued updates on my reopening. In health, love and solidarity. ✊💆🏽‍♀️ ~ Britt
