Massage Therapy!

Let's talk Massage Therapy! This is a little different from some our of 'normal' posts about the Law of Attraction. However, I find it is important that we do things that relax us and bring us into a calm state of being. Many of us use meditation or tapping to do this for ourselves, but we can also use massage therapy to benefit our happiness too!

If you find that you are stressed out at times, then you may have pain in certain areas of your body. Trigger points are areas of muscle that are tight that can cause pain in a different location. So, by massaging these trigger points, we may reduce some stress and tension and feel a little bit better throughout our day!

Everyone handles stress differently, but I think it is one of the main causes of knots and tension in our muscles. There was a time when I never used to have tension in my muscles. However, when I started to stress about 'life happening' that changed. Sometimes I feel like there isn't a muscle in my body that doesn't have tension! BUT, we are all about the positive here so that is why I recommend massage therapy to help you because it helps me!

Some of the benefits of massages include relieving tension, reduce anxiety and depression, improves sleep patterns, improves mood by releasing serotonin and dopamine. These are just a few, but there are SO many more out there. It is surprising what the feeling of touch can do for us on an emotional and spiritual level!

Now, I understand not all of us have someone there that will be offering to give us a massage every day! One massage a week could help your state of happiness tremendously by helping relieve the stress from the week. If you don't have a significant other, then take some time and look up a local spa who offers massage treatments. You are worth the time and money spent to feel good and be happy!

Let's Talk Tap

Let's Talk Tap

If you've never heard of EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) do yourself a favor and check it out. It has helped me tremendously in my life. It has helped me through and get over panic and anxiety attacks. But, it can also help with so much more. If your a person who holds their anger and frustration inside, if you have anxiety issues, fears, or a temper, EFT will be very helpful for you to. Holding in or pushing down your feelings and emotions can not only affect your life and attitude, it can affect your health, emotionally and physically.

Basically, what you are doing is tapping on acupressure points as you talk through your feelings. EFT gently lets you feel and work through your emotions, without pushing them down or having outburst. It calms and relaxes you, so you can let go and step back from your issue, what ever it may be, and rationally deal with it.
