I can’t believe how many days I’ve seen snow and it’s only October 15th! It made me go dig for my sweaters and cozy blankets. In my space, that also means the hot stones get heated up! Have you ever had hot stones as apart of a massage? If you haven’t, you have to try it! It feels so good on those cold days, especially in the middle of the winter when it can be even colder. If you are a little nervous about hot stones, you’re in the right place. I’m here to tell you what it’s all about.
So about two months ago I announced that I am now selling Young Living Oils. And you may have heard of essential oils, but not know much about them. My hope is that I can dispel any mis-beliefs you may have, and answer any questions. Never hesitate to reach out, that’s what I’m here for! To start, I’m going to share some of the basics about essential oils.
This blog post will be my most vulnerable post, by far. I am typing right now thinking that I probably won’t even post it, but I want to make it up in case I get the nerve to actually share this with the world. Ethan’s birth story. I want to back this up to round 1, with Ella.
I discovered podcasts about a year ago. It was a life changer. Dishes aren’t nearly as dreadful to do when I can be entertained by a podcast at the same time! I also love to put one going on walks, car rides, anywhere really. Learn and do life at the same time?! Win-win. I used to say I would love to be a professional student (nerdy I know), but now I don’t have to, because there are so many podcasts, that you could learn almost anything you wanted to for FREE!! How awesome is that?!
I’m back for part 2 of my pre-natal care blog. I got so wrapped up in supplements, that the first part was a little longer then anticipated. But that’s all right, I’m now 4 days overdue, so I have been given ample time to add to the first part, haha. Also, I take that to mean that I am passionate about this subject. And I am, I love talking about pregnancy and think that you DON’T have to suffer through it! And that’s what these posts are intended to deliver. Take care of yourself during pregnancy, and you can feel great! I’m not talking about sickness here, I am talking about aches and pains, soreness, headaches or low back pain. Almost every mom I’ve met has had some sort of pre-natal tension or pain at some point in their pregnancy. So, what can you do? Continue on to find out! Here are my 3 Must Have Therapies:
I have been thinking about this post for awhile. I had an amazing pregnancy, and I wanted to share some of the reasons why. I felt good for the first two as well, but I had some extra knowledge this time that I believe helped. My story begins last fall.
One thing that has gotten me thinking is how you can feel better at home in between sessions. How can I help you achieve that? I can show you stretches (more coming on YouTube soon!) that will help to keep everything lengthened and feeling good, I can give you tips on how to feel better, but I can also offer products such as lotions or Essential Oils to help relieve stress, pain, tension while we aren't together.
I can't believe fall sports are back to practice this week! It brings back many memories of days spent in the gym on those hot August days. I love volleyball and can't wait to catch a few games this fall.
Have you ever heard of a Self-Love Menu? I hadn't until a couple of weeks ago, but I love it! Basically, it's a menu of all of -or a few of- the things that you do to love yourself. I can't remember exactly where I saw it, but they recommended starting with a list of 10 things. In my head, I was like "Oh! That'll be easy!" Yeah, not so much. It was actually harder then I anticipated.
Touch is very powerful, both bad and good. I want to discuss the power of touch in a healthy, loving environment. Did you know that to thrive in relationships, as a baby, or as a child touch is SO important? The smallest touch can activate those reward centers in the brain and make us feel better. We feel happier, safer, more confident, more soothed and more connected.
