I BELONG

This Journey is new. This Journey is Young. But it is MY journey. Loving myself enough to trust my intuition when it comes to this business and more importantly, these gems. These oils. In order to be successful, you need to believe in what it is you are after. I am after health and mental grounding. I believe in my oils. I feel more healthy. I am more grounded. I BELIEVE I have found my success.
I BELONG.

I just wasn't on top of my game

I wasn't on top of my game 

Have you ever felt like this? Like you know what needs to be done and you're attempting to get it done but something just doesn't feel right? About a month, ago I started eating in a way that is clean and healthy to me. I cut out dairy, I've been more strict with not eating gluten and I've managed to successfully eat more veggies and drink lots more water. Yay! I feel great! Since I've been on this regimen, I have felt so energized, motivated to get it to many different things, determined and did I mention lighter!?! So why, today, did I feel so off?

I had only one massage, A client that Has been coming to me for her regular 90 minute massage for over 2 yrs. All this month, I have felt like Wonder Woman, saving the world one massage at a time! And today, I couldn't seem to get my cape on right!?!  (Does Wonder Woman even have a cape or just a cute outfit? 0~:)  
This particular calendar day, I frequently used too much oil, which doesn't allow me to work into the muscles like I need to. My footing was off. I did not feel grounded. All I could think to myself was, "she's not gonna come back!" "Give it your all, girl! Give it all you got before you lose her as a regular!" Somehow  I managed to get through the entire session without tripping over myself or the massage table, but I certainly felt "off" today. 

Phew!!!....When my client got off the table and came out of the massage room, the look of relief and relaxation on her face and calm demeanor just said it ALL! I did my job. I made someone feel so much better than they did when they walked through my office doors and lay on my table. My client had no clue that I wasn't quite on top of my game. We chatted a bit, finished our transaction and scheduled for the next time. 

After all that worry, I realized that it's perfectly fine to not be perfectly fine. Sometimes we have the habit of not thinking enough of ourselves when in fact, we are doing our very best and our best is ENOUGH. This week I've had a lot of exciting new things on my mind and today was the exception to all the good days I've had all month. I'm not sad at all. In fact I feel energized and excited for what's to come.  My Massage game felt off this time, and I'm sure it will happen again. All I can do is gear up for the next one & be confident that I can positively affect someone life, one fabulous massage at a time! 

Whenever you feel like you just can't get it right, remember this: YOU ARE ENOUGH!!

Have you done this one little thing today?

I smiled at someone today and they smiled right back at me! I love it when that happens! Don't you? It's true, a smile is contagious and it never hurts anyone. 

This week is International Random Acts of Kindness Week. Now, I know the week is just about over but it's never too late to be kind, right? Their website is packed with great ideas on how to celebrate, and I especially love the approach of committing a random act of kindness for three different people:
  • Someone you don't know
  • Someone you know
  • Yourself
Someone you don't know
This are pretty simple and can quickly become a habit. (That's a good thing!)
Smile. When you're in a depressingly long line at the bank, watching a parent deal with their toddler's public meltdown, or sitting next to another car in traffic. A kind grin goes a long way when you're feeling a bit hopeless about the daily hassles in life.
Someone you know
Take a moment to think about who in your life may be a little touch-deficient. Maybe you know someone who is recently widowed, a single parent with older children, or a new empty-nester. Maybe even a young teenager in an especially introverted stage of awkwardness.
Make it a point to touch someone. It could be a warm hand shake, high-five, or great hug, whatever is appropriate for that person and situation. Touch is shown to make us happier and healthier, and it benefits both you and the receiver!
Yourself
People depend on you, so it's important to take care of yourself. If you've only got a few minutes, steal away and flip through a great magazine. If you can set aside some more time, get a Massage, go for a walk by yourself to recharge, or window shop at your favorite mall. I personally like to draw, paint, cook and I always have essential oils diffusing in the back round for that warm and cozy extra relaxed feeling. I get my oils HERE.
Kindness doesn’t have to cost you anything, and it doesn’t need to be a grand gesture. A little goes a long way!

Always be kind and remember: 


May you have Peace, Love and Rejuvenation🌾
