Rolling with COVID-19

Dear Friends,

Greetings to you, my dear ones.  I’m sure that it is no surprise to be hearing from me in these times. I have indeed decided to give our work together a break for a few weeks. 


Over the past few days I have been really grappling with this decision as I looked to colleagues and therapeutic massage professional organizations (ABMP & AMTA) for their guidance and thoughts.  All along my gut has been telling me to take a break.  Yesterday ABMP took a firm stand encouraging us to close our practices for 3-4 weeks and then reassess. I think that is prudent advice and believe that most of you will agree. 


In the meantime I encourage you to look for other ways to stay well.  When I need a massage and cannot get one, I generally look to yoga.  My go-to, free websites are Do Yoga With Me (doyogawithme.com) and Yoga with Adriene (yogawithadriene.com - but her YouTube channel is the best place to search for the type of class you want), both of which offer shorter and longer classes as well as guided meditation.  A little bit of frequent yoga is more effective than a long session once a week, though any is better than none!


Get outside. 


Eat healthy. 


Get good sleep. 


Limit media intake. 


​We will work together again before long, and for some of you, this might not even disrupt your massage schedule.  I’ll let you know when I open my doors again.  Until then take good care of your body, mind, and spirit.


​Warmly,
Julie
