Sometimes the path we’re on has us feeling like the snail. Every rock in our way feels like a Boulder, one slow move forward and then another rock in our way. Feeling like it’s taking forever to get to where we want to go...
Other times, the path we’re on feels like the kid on the scooter, maybe we stop to take a break here and there, but for the most part, life is smooth sailing and the path feels easy.
Whichever path you’re on, I hope you can keep your head up.
Some stretches of the path are more challenging than we can imagine and make us feel like we’re never going to get to where we want to go. We will get there eventually.
Other times, the path feels smooth and easy, and we need to remember to take lots of deep breaths and enjoy the stretch, we never know how long it will last.
Over to you... what’s ONE lesson you’re learning right now on the stretch of path that you’re on?!?

Who do you support?
Whether it’s your kids, or your spouse, or someone else you’re taking care of, you’re always there for them, always there to help them with whatever they need...
Who supports you?
Yeesh! This can be a hard one.
We all feel like we have to run our race alone; do all the things ourselves, but unless we have support from someone or a few key people or sometimes even a whole tribe, we’re headed for burnout (especially when caring for many generations at once) so, make sure you’re leaning into your support system often.
How do you support yourself?
Whether it’s long walks on the beach, a cup of tea or coffee in your favourite chair, extra sleep or naps, exercise, a bath, a good book, a good scream/cry we need to support ourselves on this sometimes lonely journey of motherhood/caregiving...
If you’re open... curious to know which one of the supports is the hardest for you?
Supporting someone else?
Receiving support?
Supporting yourself?

There I was again, laid flat out because my back ‘went out’.
Nothing exciting or brag-worthy, just a small, simple movement and my pelvis seized and the low back pain almost sent me to my knees...
But this time was different.
I knew what needed to be done!
I knew that rest was key, but I also knew the movements that would unlock the frozen feeling.
I knew the stretches that would decrease the biting in my left butt cheek and nerve pain down my leg.
I knew the postural tweaks and corrections that would almost automatically calm the pain down.
I knew what needed to be done and after doing it, the pain was gone.
After years with babies and toddlers, I finally figure it out.
As an RMT, and fellow low back pain suffer-er, I am here to help you.
Taking care of young kids, or taking care of other people (or somethings both at the same time) is hard enough,
but when you add low back pain, it goes to a whole new level.
With the system I have created, I can get you better in 4-6 treatments.
I have 5 appointment spots available next week.
Let me help you get your life back.
And if massage isn’t something you’re interested in, or you don’t live in the Okanagan, maybe check out my new book Finding Me, where I teach and show you how to fit yourself into the schedule of life, and take care of yourself while taking care of everyone you take care of.
