Friday May 1sr the studio opens back up!! A few small things left to do to make it just right. I’m so excited to have my hands on bodies again.

Remember you can schedule a salt water soak before your massage to prepare your body and mind to fall into relaxation easier.

Way back when Oliver gave me permission to take these photos and then said - oh my god, please don’t post those, they are terrible. I would have never posted these, except Oliver taught me something, he’s published photos of me indirect violation of our agreement with no penalty because he found an obscure Washington law that said, when information is for public good, consent doesn’t matter. He said our program, which he doesn’t mention for public good, falls into that.

I think that it’s for the good of the public to know about a journalist with predatory behaviours. Oliver came to our home to have us be a part of his big project, not to become his project. I specifically told him my fears of people coming, taking photos and publishing them wherever and however they wanted. My fears that images of our guests would be plastered on the internet….

He did just that, doubled down, tripled down and continues to do it. He’s working to make a documentary on his time here- with consent he gained from folks for his school project- NOT a film, not for the world press, not for blogs or magazines.

Photographers need to hold their community accountable, filmmakers- you too. His predatory behavior turned into acts of violence- seeing my image all over the internet has been a complete violation of my trust, our agreement and of this space he was welcomed into.

Oliver Farshi is a dangerous predator in the world of journalism. He takes a great photo, but at what cost.

Now scheduling for May

Now that there is some ability to schedule my direct care weeks for VSED, imma be a much more dependable massage therapist …. Thank you to all of you who let me put dying folks first, and still stuck with me. I’ll still have the occasional shift for those choosing medical aid in dying 🖤

New perk : if you schedule a minimum of 3 massages a month, you get a 30 minute salt soak or an extra 15 minutes added on to your 3rd session.

Slow, steady and a solid core. These are the tools I used during tonight’s work out at home. My inner thighs were already talkin to me thanks to morning workout.

My favourite routines are slow and steady, with a heat and intensity that slow build allowing my whole system to adjust. My mind is ready, it knows how to place my body to avoid injury. My body is ready, it’s been able to slow build and avoid surprises. My spirit is ready, because she knows I can do what I’m about to do. I used to be a CrossFit ju**ie, now, I’m comfortably at home with Pilates.

Holding tight to the glimmers that are here, that are loud that are strong. Painting in my art studio while my massage studio is tore tf up. New shelving, new colors, rearranging …. Giving her a tiny glow up before I open my schedule back up.

If you’ve been missing me, trust me, I’ve been missing you too.

Sitting in my studio… with hope. Hope for me, and you and my loved, my neighbors, the people who walk down the street, the people in the next county, state, country, continent…. Hope for our humanity.
Hope for so many things multitudes larger than me. making art for ‘s Une Bonne Mort - conference for those caring for the living, the dying and the dead. Every year while people register I am humbled … people want to come together and learn about these things. Each year provides me with so many opportunities to learn, and when I learn I like to share. The conference this year is going back to its original 2019 roots- a family style lunch, community building and time to get to know each other. The topics are meaningful to so many, I hope to see you there.

We know that thWA State Department of Health doing and what the disguise is all about. It’s happening across the country. What can we as massage therapists do?

Call the DOH and let them know what you think about their support of this racist behavior dressed up like care.

Write, call and email the FSMTB and do the same

Buy a ticket to the conference and find a way to protest and not get kicked out. Maybe we all wear Tshirts that say the truths, ask pointed questions, get involved in table talk or room conversations….

We are providing care that has been and continues to be politicized. We have to protect each other.

To
We urgently request you to PUBLICLY WITHDRAW your sponsorship from the WA Human Trafficking Summit on 1/9. This conference is offering solutions from DHS and ICE - these law enforcement bodies rely on carceral methods to disrupt massage businesses and drive them underground. ICE IS A DEADLY FORCE!

The goals of this summit sound idealistic and faultless, but their “anti-trafficking” narrative hides a RACIST and XENOPHOBIC agenda. This event and their sponsors (FederationWA State Department of Healthsage Therapy Boards and Kitsap County Human Trafficking Taskforce) wish to further criminalize migrant workers on the pretense of “rescuing” them from their workplaces with no understanding of the realities of what’s happening on the ground. Workers need more accessible pathways to the industry, not increased surveillance or criminalization. Instead of inviting workers or listening to their demands, the event will invite DHS and ICE personnel to speak. This is a time where we need to protect our working class, immigrant communities, not EXPOSE THEM TO HEIGHTENED CRIMINALIZATION AND DEPORTATION RISK! stand for the rights, health, and safety of immigrant workers and PUBLICLY WITHDRAW your support of this conference!
