Good Morning Everyone! I'm a little late on my post this week, but I hope everyone had a great weekend! This week was a little different than last week. I was taken outside of my typical routine as I switched Friday class for Monday clinic. This past week went pretty well despite my nerves. I had two clients, both wanting very different massages, and I received a positive review from both ladies :) One of my clients was super happy with the stretching techniques I incorporated into her massage. I might try some more stretching with my clients from now on, to make their massage more unique and memorable. I was out most of the rest of the week from the cold going round... but am hoping to come back stronger this week! Other than classes, which were pretty uneventful since I missed half the week, I attended a yoga retreat last night where I participated in Yin and Nidra yoga. This was the first time I can remember doing these forms of yoga, which focus on restorative stretching techniques and deep meditation. I would definitely recommend this type of yoga for anyone with a high stress job and for those of us who are exercise fanatics or looking to become better stretchers.
It's super low impact but great for accessing your Alpha/Theta brain waves. If you have something you're stressing over or are looking for answers to some problem you're facing, this is a great way to navigate that and search for the answer you're looking for. The Instructor takes you on a journey through this 45 minute meditation and you simply let go of your Beta brain and ease into the deep state of your inner mind. I really enjoyed the new yoga studio, which is just down the street from my house and will be making it a weekly ritual 🙏🙌 I'm hoping to take classes to become a yoga instructor next summer, after my massage classes end so I can incorporate yoga into my massage practice! What has everyone been up to this week... Any plans for Halloween? Leave your questions, comments and insights below and have a lovely week everyone!
