Massage

Wren horns in on my massage this afternoon.

I’m grateful for the lovely massage therapist that was recommended recently, and to the friend who recommended her.

Wren got involved the last time too, but she’s polite and patient so I get treated first. Elyse is supremely skilled and has brought considerable relief to chronically tight muscles. And she delivers!

I’ve never been consistent with self-care, but my new year’s resolution was to take better care of this old workhorse body, and regular massage is now a part of that. Along with eating 92 different plants a day.

Four sautéed plants in a cheese sandwich…
Lots of plants in a big salad almost every day…
Plants for dessert…
Plants for breakfast…
And more plants for lunch in this highly decorated, so simple cheese grits with saucy black beans.

I’m grateful for the means and the support to attend to this body. And I’m grateful for the means, time, and support to attend to this mind and spirit as well. As waves of grief continue to wash through me, I’m still savoring each day… each evening… and especially this evening…
