Stronger than you know

“We are almost always stronger and more capable than we believe ourselves to be”

A great quote, when we are faced with difficult decisions that are presented to us, affirmations and quotes can be quite inspirational and will guide us to positivity.
Some of my favourites are:

“I believe that obstacles are put in your way, so that you can examine the true magnitude of the strength you posses”

“How we treat others is really a reflection of how we think about ourselves”

“Angels sometimes block our path because we are heading in the wrong direction”

“Beautiful pictures are developed from negatives in a dark room...So if you see darkness in your life be reassured that a beautiful picture is being prepared”

“See where your own energy wants to go, not where you think it should go. Do something because it feels right, not because it makes sense. Follow the spiritual impulse”

Which leads me to, that you are in charge of your feelings, beliefs, and actions and you teach others how to behave toward you. While you cannot change other people, you can influence them through your own behaviors and action. By being a living role model of what you want to receive from others, you create more of what you want in your life. The holistic approach.

Since my last blog I am now qualified in Pregnancy massage, had a wonderful day in Brighton, and am keen to get started.
During pregnancy our bodies go through major changes, such as structural, physiological, psychological, spiritual and social changes. Some of these changes may produce discomforts and emotional problems. Massage can ease these discomforts and give you a warm and wellbeing feeling, helping the mother to be to adjust to these changes.

The benefits include:
• Reduce physical discomforts, e.g. muscle spasm, cramp, tired legs, tension, back ache, etc.
• Reduce oedema and swelling by increasing circulation and removing metabolic waste products
• Helps emotional problems, e.g. anxiety, depression, fear, restless, insomnia
• Reduce stress and promote relaxation
• Ease digestive problems
• Beneficial in labour and post-natal care

I will also be attending The Gosport and Fareham Multiple Sclerosis Society who are holding a pamper day on Saturday 3rd July 2010 from 11am to 5pm. It will be at The Crofton Community Centre, Stubbington, Fareham, where I will be offering 10-15 minute manicure taster sessions for £5, if you want to come and see me.
