Fresh out of the kiln! Everything is ready to ship except the gay hockey themed mugs which are available for PREORDER. That means they’ll be ready to ship in 6-8 weeks. Smaller cottage mug is as is and you can pick the interior color. The larger mug you can custom request the phrases and/or a little drawing (within reason!) to go with it. Simple stuff like “what color” on one side and then a …. well, IYKYK on the other side! Or a little picture of a cottage, or hockey sticks with a heart, or just the cursive text on each side of the mug. If you make an illustrative request, remember I have medium to rudimentary drawing skills, so we aren’t doing elaborate portraits on clay over here.
I’m excited to get working on these for you! 👨🏼‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏻👨🏼‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏻🏒🏒🌞🌞

Finding a provider that can offer a space that you can relax into and also have a deep understanding of functional movement isn’t always easy. Of course I believe we are all so much more than whatever physical pain we may be experiencing, but some aches and pains can be relieved with a provider that understands the puzzle of anatomy and pain science. And I’ve been loving taking the Clinical Deep Tissue class ! See last post for more details. 🤲🏼🗝️

Driving across the country to massage you! 🚙
Some photos from a road trip and some reminders on why getting a massage is a good idea! 😌
My books are open for massaging in New Orleans from September 25-October 6. I’ll have my massage table set up in midcity and my booking link is the same. I’ll prioritize returning clients from my once consistent and precious practice but if openings remain available, I’ll be happy to take new clients. 💆
If you have felt shy to mention a gift certificate that expired shortly after I abruptly left NOLA, please let me know! I want to make good on whatever loose threads I may have abandoned when I high tailed to CA to support my dad. I have more spoons now, gimme a shout. 🤲🏼
Very grateful for excellent road pals and our two perfect pups. 🧡

New Orleans part 2 just sharing a few more snippets of my June visit! Oysters and prints and summer sounds and Louisiana views I miss. Not pictured are all the pals I got to give big squeezes to! 🤗 Since then, I've been enjoying returning to my pets and rhythms of my sweet little life I've slowly created for myself out on the west coast. My books are still open if you're looking for a trauma informed, body inclusive, q***r massage therapist in the East Bay! I've been a practicing massage therapist for nearly a decade, am a dedicated anatomy student, and have supported clients with a wide range of body experiences from surgery recovery, to repetitive stress injuries, to somatic reintegration. Massage can be an incredible preventative health care tool and it is work I am extremely dedicated to. Go where the links are to book and I'll see you at the ! 🌞🌊 https://meghanjohnson.as.me/

The longer it took me to post this, the more anti ai gems I found! 😆 today seemed like a good enough day to post about this lil block print I made recently. However you’re spending the day, please be safe and remember that as more neighbors and loved ones lose healthcare and access to basic needs, we’ll only have each other! Even if a robot can pick us up from the airport or deliver food or make terrible art, it’ll cost money that we can put toward our communities, so we’re better off doing those things for each other. Love you! ❤️‍🔥🧨🎆
