Om Namah Shivaya 📿

Transform ignorance into awareness.

Spin the prayer wheel of the heart, keep practicing, and don’t give up.

Wherever we have knots in our heart and hatred in our being, keep dissolving it.

The 5 Acts of Shiva are:

Creation
Sustenance
Dissolution
Concealment
Revelation

We practice and show up for humanity, for each other, and for collective liberation.

With this New Moon, may we cultivate a community of care, remember who we are and that no one is disposable.

May everyone seeking refuge be received. May all bodies be protected regardless of race, nationality, and legal status.

We are interdependent and our liberation is bound together.

Great article about the damage of ice!!! I’m always telling my clients not to ice, it may temporarily decrease pain but will delay the healing process. Heat is always a better option.

Why I'm cold on ice - Mt Eliza Herbal So I was down a remote end of the beach the other weekend when a friend had a nasty mishap in the gnarly shore break and managed to seriously damage a knee. Turns out the injury included some heavy-duty ligament and cartilage tears. It was a long hobble back to civilisation and the daunting chain .....

Do you have tight hips and IT bands? We can do this awesome cupping treatment!

20 years ago, a spit in the ocean in cupping's long career mind you, I spent a few days observing therapists working on athletes at the Australian institute of Sport in Canberra. When dealing with back issues, especially the erector spinae, or illiotibial band contracture, no one bothered with any therapy other than cupping.
In class today we dealt with the issue of treating long standing hip pain with much tension and pain gripping around the greater trochanter and the associated attachment periphery surrounding the joint - with accompanying tightness along the ITB and extending into the anterio-lateral aspect of the lower limb.
In TCM it is a classic pain pathway of the gall bladder channel. Indeed my inspiration for this treatment occurred decades back in the mid- seventies when I was studying in Taiwan with an injury specialist, as part of my 5 year doctors programme. The configuration of cups on the hips is called a plum flower design with a centre and five petals. The large cup is over the trochanter and the petals surround the attachments. Instead of bearing downwards like so many other therapies, the cups lift and release without pain. It is a great treatment and the receiver was over the moon how good she felt afterwards.
There's so much more involved in this practice - more to follow inc a vid.

Spring Detox Thai Massage Special
One of the great benefits of Thai massage is that it detoxifies by flushing the body with fresh blood and oxygen, as the deep compression and long holds work through the five layers of the body. This treatment, combined with cleansing essential oils, will leave you feeling more open, refreshed, and energized. https://wholebodywellnesspdx.com
