How have you been with this heat? We have been having picnics or barbecuing on the beach most evenings and enjoying plenty of swims with the dog.  The benefits of living by the coast!

If you feel you've been melting a bit, the good news is that from next week I will have a heavenly Dyson fan in my therapy room - so book your session and be assured that we will both stay as cool as possible.

Officially the start of summer it also marks the beginning of shorter days, so for those struggling with the heat and long summer evenings this may be a bit of a relief!  But we still have many weeks of fine summer weather to look forward to.

In Egypt the Summer Solstice marked the beginning of the flooding season, which ensured crops for winter - so an important time of year culturally.  And for those in the in the Northern Hemisphere, the Summer Solstice is a time of celebration, of honoring the light, our connection to the Sun and the Earth.  Every culture has festivals to honor this day and our ancestors around the earth built numerous monuments to commemorate this time.

I saw a beautiful quote that said of the Summer Solstice:  “(It) is the time to invite fire into our lives fire to burn away all that we have outgrown and all that no longer serves us; fire that makes the wild things grow in us, for which our inner selves have longed."

Beautiful, huh?  I have many tools to help you manage change in your life, whether through homeopathy or with massage or Reiki.  Just give me a call for a chat.

If this sounds like it could be you, book in for regular massage sessions. It may well be the answer for you.

Multiple studies have shown that massage therapy can lower cortisol levels, increase dopamin and serotonin (our happy, feel-good hormones) and lower excitatory hormones like norepinephrine and epinephrine - otherwise known as adrenaline.

If you have too much norepinephrine or epinephrine it can lead to feelings of anxiety. Too little dopamine and serotonin can cause depression and other psychological problems. It is such a fine balancing act! And if massage therapy can help to bring that balance then it may just be the right approach for you.
