10 Minute Morning Meditation for Clarity, Stability, and Presence | Goop

2 Feet, 10 Toes, 7,200 Nerve Endings

This segment is to satisfy the curiosity of anyone who likes to have FACT and REASON before venturing into the Holistic Treatment of Reflexology.   This study was conducted at the University of Minnesota within the last few years.

While the findings have an undeterminable result, highly in favour of Alternative based therapy, compared to Western Medicine in regards to medical conditions, please keep in mind that Reflexology is NOT a TREATMENT for these conditions.

Knowbody Knows, do YOU?

"So, you're a Reflexologist?  Wow!  That's great!  Where exactly do you flex?" 😁 Seriously? 

I inspired to create a comedy routine involving the crazy questions that I receive about Reflexology!  Stay tuned! I'm working on it!

My sessions always allow for extra consultation time in order to listen, gather a history and discuss your complaints and medical history.  You will get comfortable on a massage table (remaining clothed), your feet will be cleansed and then I will take note of the condition of your feet. Trust is the key. I will proceed with a guided breath relaxation so you may center your energy and get used to my touch, while gently settling into a deep state of relaxation. Beginning with your head,  then moving down to your feet, pressure points will be stimulated by my fingers targeting stimulation to all systems of the body/mind. 

In the meantime, the following is a few details about what a professional Reflexology appointment is all about.   
This article helps to explain " What To Expect From a First Reflexology Session". Stay well informed!

Picture Yourself Here

HEALTH:

A wholeness, In which no functions are felt.

Flexible body.

Free respiration ~~ Glowing face.

Overall warmness

Great, regular heartbeat ~~ Restful Sleep.

Tranquil Mind

The sense of balance that we experience when we are healthy is both empowering and soothing.

We can't always express what we need to capture that feeling, but we do know when we need something!

The first, positive, step towards seizing that feeling of peaceful balance is to make the decision to take the time to set aside for yourself, a treatment of neccesity.

Perhaps for some well-deserved and rejuvenating Healing Touch Therapy.

Communication is the key. Melissa will help you to discover the right blend of therapies that will help you achieve the return to an equanamous state of being.

I offer you a confidential, personal, and professional environment for your rejuvenating session that will leave you feeling like yourself again.

Plan a single treatment, or a series.

My commitment is to help you find the best of therapeutic options to lead a better, healthier and energized life.

Setting a Healthy Intention Today

February mornings are hard to greet. However, the dark early hours are the best time to rise so that we can wind up our internal sunshine with a morning yoga flow. This morning sequence will guide you into setting your intentions of how your day will begin. Wouldn't it be nice to have control of that for a change? BEFORE the kids, BEFORE checking your e-mails, BEFORE getting into the traffic or subways, and BEFORE your attetion is demanded from others. Most of you are saying, "Ya, right, Melissa. I can't get up until I have my morning coffee!" Do yourself a favor and just try it. Plan on unrolling your mat the night before. Get a cup of tea ready before you practice, if you like. Have a few warm sips and take a few deep breaths. IMPORTANT: Turn on your computer but DO NOT CHECK YOUR E-MAILS....go straight to the following link. http://www.myyogaonline.com/videos/yoga/surya-morning-flow (this is only one of many short yoga sequences to greet your day....feel free to try others.
