The video I was responding to was on TikTok and not here on IG BUT in this video I break down all the methods of release that I do and a basic how to for each of them. I can do more in depth videos but wanted to share this one to answer some questions from my last reel.
I struggle with consistent content as my ADHD keeps my life busy and my brain overloaded. This is also why I am unable to respond to DM’s. I get a lot of them and since we have soooo many different inboxes on every app.
I will try my best to answer whatever I can directly. You are always welcome to book an appointment with me too if you are local to Gresham/Portland! It is the same price as a regular massage but I will teach you how and where on your body to target, depending on the goals.
We live in a world with problematic beauty standards and I recognize that. We also cannot blame our self for wanting to reflect those as we are part of our culture and were raised in it. Both can coexist. We need learn how to love and live comfortably in our body through all of its phases. It is the sacred vessel that carries our spirit. But to pretend that societal standards do not or should not be something to encourage is not factoring the human part of our experience. There is no shame in the pursuit of “beauty” as it is part of how we shape our inner and outer worlds.
So truly-my goal isn’t to get washboard abs or a stomach that doesn’t show the marks of motherhood. I have even learned to find those beautiful! But I do want us to feel like our best self in our bodies, whatever that means to us (not society). I have less pain, better movement, softer skin, and have improved organ function AND my stomach looks flatter and smoother than it ever has before.
