Hello friends,
I’m going to keep this simple and heartfelt.
The world feels especially heavy and tender right now. There is some sadness around with all of the fires burning, and the smoky air can make everything feel even closer and harder to carry. If you’re feeling it too, I hope you’ll be gentle with yourself. We all deserve moments of kindness, rest, and care even when the world makes those things feel difficult to reach.
With the smoky air outside, it’s an especially good time to care for our nervous systems and receive the support of touch. Valerie and I have massage openings this Friday, and Cathy has openings on Sunday, August 16th which is also her last day working at Halcyon.
I’ve also been using the vibroacoustic mat with clients, and many have found it deeply useful as both a gentle transition into massage and, afterward, back into the wider world. If this is something you are interested in trying out, respond to this email and we will get you set up!
We’ll resume sharing useful learning information once I find my way out of this email slump. For now, please take good care of yourselves, and hop onto Jane if you’d like to schedule an appointment. https://halcyonbend.janeapp.com/

Warmly,
