Unfortunately, I've come down with a flu bug. I apologize in advance for all the rescheduling/canceling that has to happen, please understand! ❤️😔
✨️Drink lots of water and do your stretches!✨️

With the season changing and kiddos going back to school, we are all painfully aware that flu season is upon us.
With that being said, I'm kindly asking that if you are sick, even with a "little" cold, please call and reschedule your appointment. I'm currently out of commission with the tail end of a flu I caught last week. (Worst weekend EVER!)😅
I'm trying to be a bit more cautious as I'm now booking into November. I never WANT to reschedule appointments to a later date but it happens. So again, please, if you are sick, stay home ❤️

Stay hydrated, keep warm and do your stretches!✨️

❄️I cannot believe it's already November!!❄️

To all my lovely clients looking to get their massages in before Christmas, I definitely recommend booking in advance if you're able too! With insurance refresh coming soon, my schedule is filling up pretty quick!!
Hope you're all staying warm!

☮️ Hi! I'm a happy little plant that lives @ Meridian & all my needs are being met! I have water, air & sunlight. Look how well I am growing! ☺️

☮️ Human needs are a bit more complicated....

According to NASA humans have four basic needs to survive.

☮️ Food
☮️ Water
☮️ Air
☮️ Shelter

Those needs seem very basic, and the quality of the food, water, air & shelter have a huge impact on human lives.

And what about our psychological needs? We can't forget about those!

☮️ Universal Psychological Needs

☮️Autonomy
Feeling like you are in control and have choice.
Making informed decisions (based on your values and beliefs).
Taking responsibility for your decisions and actions.
Feeling free and willing.

☮️ Competence
Having an optimal level of challenge (i.e., to give you the opportunity to feel a sense of competence - not too easy, not too difficult).
Feeling able to have a go at challenges.
Feeling confident in your ability to complete tasks.
Feeling goals are achievable.

☮️Relatedness
Feeling connected to others around you (e.g., family, friends, colleagues, exercise instructors).
Good social support network.
Feeling like other people care about you.

☮️ Ok, so we got our basic needs now.... But it still doesn't feel complete.

☮️Love. We definitely need that.

Make sure to show yourself some love! Get some sun, food & have a little FUN! Fun is definitely a human need 👍.

If you feel that your needs are not being met please reach out for help. If it is not an emergency, we have amazing counselors that will help you find your path.
