Some people call Massage a luxury. I don't think it is. People long to be touched and met in the most raw and basic way. As individuals, we have learned to experience ourselves as separate Beings. While we believe ourselves to be separate, there is almost a magnetic force that pulls us together from a higher plane of interconnectedness. We may have developed strategies to hide, to argue, to push away the other, but in truth, while those others may hold some pleasure, there is nothing better than feeling touched, complete and whole in love. I think that part of our journey is to view ourselves as separate Beings, while choosing different styles of relationships to explore and sample moments in humanity. We are all made of the same fabric and the ultimate truth in my humble opinion, is that we are all awakening to the Sacred Now of the Eternal. While some steps may seem backward, in fact, any darkness that is encountered on the path, is just another aspect of illusion. What counts is that while we have a sense of Self on that road, that things are exactly as they are meant to be... whether standing alone or seeing a hand reach out for connection. Eventually though, life is always knocking on the door, readily available, and waiting to reveal its mystery for your curiosity. Touch is just another vehicle of awakening and remembering. The way we touch each other is expressed infinitely. The gift of our belief in separation and duality is that we have the experience to know unity as well and to ride the wave of life with joy and adventure.
In our isolation and beliefs of separation, touch can be very healing. Think of a Mother's kiss to her child's boo boo. Imagine the touch of a kind hand. Feel inside your experience of when you were most loved and cherished. Was there not something else there holding you with kindness.
At Lighten Up Therapies, your journey may be serene, we may laugh aloud or explore the Spiritual Nature of Things. The intention though is to be in Service the the way of the Divine.
