Moments that bring back funny memories. 😁

A quick story about Shawana.

Growing up with a somewhat unique name brings on various pronunciations and I grew up just going with anything that sounded close. One of my childhood best friends is named Shaynah, so that added to the confusion. 😊 For the record, my name is pronounced Shah-nah.

Fast forward to my graduation from graduate school and I’m about to walk across the stage to receive my Master’s Degree in Athletic Training. We were each given a card with our name on it and I added a “w” to my name to (try) to help with the pronunciation.

As I walked across the stage, I heard Shawana Coakley. I just smiled, shook my head, received my degree and off I went. I guess I should have added and “h” instead. 😂

Just a reminder not to sweat the small stuff. Laugh it off and keep moving. 💃🏼

I’m so incredibly grateful to do what I do.

I know I was born to care for others; from the time I was a babysitter, a lifeguard, an EMT, an athletic trainer and a teacher, looking out for others is what I’ve always done.

However, my own self care has always taken a back seat. This summer I’ve decided to finally practice what I preach and tune into my own needs. It’s certainly taking some practice but it’s coming along.

One big step I made this summer is that I committed to change my relationship with alcohol and it really feels so good.

Yesterday was day 75 and between dealing with challenging family dynamics and socializing, this weekend was a little challenging but this morning’s coffee tasted SO good. 😊

Taking care of yourself isn’t selfish.

The transition from school to summer is exciting and can be overwhelming especially for those who become the family’s summer activity director!! ⛱️

Don’t forget to take time for you and press pause on all the activity through yoga nidra (yogic sleep). 💤

Join me for an in-person yoga nidra experience in a private art studio at Scituate Harbor.

Yoga nidra means “yogic sleep” and it’s a powerful meditation experience that I have found extremely helpful in my own practice.

After experiencing a 5-day yoga nidra retreat a few years ago, I decided to get certified as a yoga nidra facilitator to share this practice with others!

I love forward to seeing you on Tuesday, May 27!

When you can’t do a cold bath at home, here’s the next best thing. 🌊

I’m not a huge fan of cold plunges, but I love them for cranky hip/groin/back issues.

So grateful for reminders to pause.

It’s rare that I watch sports these days…💙🩵🏀

As an athletic trainer, I’ve spent years on the sidelines of many, many sporting events.

It’s always a mix of emotions…sports truly bring out the best and worst of humanity. “The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat” as so perfectly quoted by Jim McKay.

The high school athletes I cared were “my athletes” (aka my kids) and I always felt responsible for their well-being.

Once I walked away from my last event as an athletic trainer in 2018, I realized how burned out I really was. It’s taken many years for me to work through my burnout and heal and it’s still a work progress.

I am so grateful for my experience as an athletic trainer and my work as a massage therapist, to do what I do while also staying on my own healing journey.

Thank you for trusting me as your massage therapist and holistic bodyworker. 🙏🏻

Tonight, I suddenly became a Florida Gators fan and my March Madness bracket is still alive and well. Still holding on to the thrill of sports. 💕

Trying to stay centered in the these crazy times. 🙃

I have found it challenging to keep a balance of staying informed and protecting my mental health and spiritual well-being.

If you’re feeling the same, please know you’re not alone.

Find your people, maybe create a space at home where you can rest, breathe, stretch, listen to soothing music, journal or just be.

This morning as I was in my space stretching gently, listening to soothing music and sipping my coffee I looked around my little library and wondered, “what message do I need right now to help guide me through this time?” I stood up and was guided straight to this book, Living Beautifully with Uncertainty and Change by Pema Chödrön.

I bought this book years ago but never took the time to really dive into it. I guess now’s the time.

Find ways to hold onto your peace and joy. 🙏🏻

Clients always pull the perfect card for their Lomi session. 💕

Lomi Lomi sessions encourage complete surrender to the present moment and allows the body, mind and spirit to rest and remember that love is ever present.

SO much ❤️ needed now. 🙏🏻
