Re-Set-Pause

These are the kind of stuff I love: experiences over objects.

There’s real science behind closing my eyes during certain moments of the treatment. Research using brain imaging found that when you close your eyes, activity increases in the somatosensory cortex the part of the brain that processes touch, while connectivity to the visual system actually decreases. Your brain shifts into a touch-dominant processing mode, and sensitivity goes up.

Speeding up happens naturally in this society, slowing down requires intentionality, effort and commitment. Oh gosh if it is worth it!

Do you know what my clients who committed to a massage membership or package told me? That suddenly, time for a massage freed up in their busy schedules.

Were they lying to themselves? Of course not, they were, and still are, busy. But they intentionally decided that self-care was a priority over something else.

So maybe you say no once a month to that event you don’t really want to attend anyway. No to doom-scrolling during your lunch break when you work from home. No to after-office drinks one Friday a month. And there you go, you’ve freed up a slot for your next massage.
