As guides, teachers, and servants we need a place to replenish our purpose, and rediscover peace, and the place we can achieve this is within a massage support group. If you are searching for a place to cultivate our community, encourage joy, and spread hope, join us on our journey to reharmonize your humanity.
Resurrect Your Love for Life
As a community we need to come together to support each other’s spirit. As massage therapists we are creatures of love and life, we were born to help others through strife, and serve as guides in the darkest times. Sometimes we need someone to be there for us when our soul feels like it has been locked behind a door as it sits quietly, crying alone.
Where is the light when we need it most? Where is the love we need when our insides feel weak?
Falling from Grace
There comes a time in every massage therapist’s life when the weight of world, and the hardship of our career pulls us from our feet. When our ardor slips away the energy of every session feels wrong, our spirit fades, and our soul loses its way. As an advocate of the massage industry one of my professional supporting goals is to help you avoid this fateful day, so your career may be beautiful and bold until you are old.
Why does this happen? It occurs for a multitude of reasons; each unique as every soul serving to guide others toward their core goals. It might be because we are lost in life, maybe our delightful dreams have drifted away, or perhaps everything we see seems bleak and boring. We need to feed our spirit the scoobie snacks she needs so we must feel the peace of our powerful goals and witness the vibrant life of life. Medically focused massage therapists need to perform corrective work to feel like their massages are meaningful, energy practitioners need to influence the vitality of others to feel fantastic.
Falling from grace is one of the first signs of burnout and it manifests with the symptoms of mediocrity, and ineptitude. When an amazing massage therapist becomes rote, sloppy, uses an amalgam of movements like potpourri, or has ineffective personal boundaries it’s a dire warning of the storm clouds to come.
Reconnecting With Our Center Space
As massage therapists we must witness the wonder of the world, move with the flow of nature, and embark of fantastic quests that help us rest. Magnificence must permeate our existence with the sweet luster of life, to glow with hope and dream of things that make us feel free. In our seconds away from the spa we need to heal, replenish, and feel the divine light of love. Ultimately we have to search for our center, release our woes, and feel wonderful.
The Spirituality of Massage
In massage there is an intangible energy that every massage therapist feels. It is indescribable, majestic and when we tap into it our massages feel like magic. To feel the awe of this amazing energy we must possess ardor, and like Hordor of Game of Thrones it holds the door to our purpose and peace. If it breaks we will fall prey to the monsters of the dark, and the chill of the winter air will fill us with despair.
How Do We Hold onto Our Ardor?
We need a community of loving souls to guide us when we hurt, help us heal, and uplift our spirit when we are sad. There must be strong souls at our side when we feel bad, to smile with us in silly times, and encourage us to feel great and grateful.
I believe this is accomplished through support groups but sitting around a table in comfy chairs sharing our woes is not enough. We need adventure, fun, and fantastic feels. We must have moments in our months that take us to the gates of greatness to remind us of terrific times. We must make new memories, meet new people, and marvel at the awesomeness of existence.
To accomplish this delightful feat we organize meetings amongst massage therapist to experience marvelous moments, to make new friends, and feel welcome. Join us on our journey, reconnect with your humanity, and relearn how to love life.
