Newtown Massage Guru Massage Therapy Today for Better Tomorrows Bio-

I am the owner and operator of a modest massage therapy studio in Newtown, Connecticut. Life is generally good.

I have been a licensed massage therapist since 2006, and have practiced in Michigan, Florida, and Connecticut. My education has been diverse; I enjoyed taking classes in a plethora of subjects over the years. I hold two Bachelor of Arts degrees, with focuses in music performance, French, and English. I also had the pleasure of living and studying in France for a year, a beautiful country that will

always hold a special place in my heart. My work experience prior to massage therapy includes teaching French at the university level, medical office management, and retail management. Preferred pastimes generally involve music, whether it's playing the flute or listening to anything interesting from anywhere, no matter the genre. I also enjoy poetry, plays, and the occasional novel. Long walks in forests are always good, but I prefer them sans mosquitos and bears. I live a quiet life with my husband, son, mother-in-law, and cats in a lovely old money-sucking Victorian in Thomaston, Connecticut.

Welcome May! Là Buidhe Bealltainn (The Yellow Day of Beltane) marked the beginning of summer in ancient Celtic cultures. It falls on May 1st, the mid point between the vernal equinox and the summer solstice. Time to dream about Maypoles, blossoms, and, for the Celts, bonfires.

Happy May Day, everyone. Let yourself bloom. 🌞

Greetings all.

As we welcome February with Groundhog Day, Candlemas and Imbolc/ St Brigid's Day, we find ourselves halfway between the winter solstice and the vernal equinox. The holidays are well behind us, the days are getting longer, and we're back to the hustle and bustle of productivity. Of course, no matter what Punxsutawney Phil's predictions are, we're feeling at least a hint of winter fatigue.

So escape the winter blues with a Guru Getaway. Feeling tired and lethargic? Treat yourself to some rejuvenating table time. Is your spouse's winter grumpiness is getting on your nerves? Get them on my schedule. Concerned about a stressed friend or coworker? Send them my way. My studio awaits.

Relax and recharge, folks. It's good for the body and mind. 🌞

Addressing the needs of our inner and outer selves is so important. Ignoring them often has disastrous effects on our lives, leaving us feeling empty, depressed, anxious, and ultimately less productive. We all long for experiences that contribute to feeling happy, whole, and energized.

It is widely acknowledged that massage brings relief from physical pain and discomfort. Less understood is its spiritual benefit and hence transformative quality. Through massage, one feels simultaneously a greater sense of centeredness and interconnectiveness, leaving one ready to face life with renewed vigor and fresh perspective.

It is my goal to help people strengthen their bodies and identities, reclaim a better quality of life, and, as a consequence, redefine their futures.
