Welcome to - The Body Sanctuary - so glad you found your way here. 😊
Here, we're creating a safe Sanctuary for your Body to be LISTENED to, and to hear what she has to say.
🍃
We offer a range of beautiful massage & healing bodywork treatments of different depths,

that will all be tailored uniquely to you. No two treatments are the same. Some offer more physical benefits - such as deep blissful relaxation and relief of muscular tension; and others go deeper into healing on other psycho-somatic-emotional-energetic-spiritual layers of your being.
🍃
Deeper Treatments explore what your body and tension is communicating; & what is stored there that is ready to release, they are trauma-informed, and go only as deep as your body feels safe to, session to session. These Treatments offer you a deep, progressive and unfolding healing journey though your own body.
🍃
Treatments are available in both Ghajnsielem, & Victoria, GOZO
🍃
Highly trained, we pride ourselves on delivering professional & very high quality Massage Therapies, Somatic Healing Work & Treatments, & work with empathy, intuition and a great understanding of the body.
🍃
We specialise in creating blissful, deeply relaxing, healing experiences that help you to reconnect with the wisdom & sacred intelligence of your body, to release deep tension & truly heal.
🍃
We can offer you specialist treatments that help to release your areas of pain, stress, chronic tension, knots, body armouring, emotional holding, blockages etc & to address, if you wish, the underlying causes.

Love this 🥰❤️

Many of us who do work to help in healing, do so because of the ways we have been hurt ourselves.

We work on healing ourselves & then, sometimes decide to or feel called to - extend a hand to others 💓

We ALWAYS get to choose:

• To heal

• To not heal & hurt others ( as we often do when unhealed)

• To heal & help others

😊

No matter who that ‘others’ is & in which capacity.
Its good for the heart, & soul.

❤️💓❤️

I call them our “ Wounds of Love “ ❤️

The places within us that were wounded. So so so often these wounds happened early in childhood.

When we were lil beings filled with Love, & magic & innocence & wonder. Nearly all the ways we were wounded deeply is when the Love that we were was not reflected back to us.

✨ An angry parent, lost in their own pain or self-loathing, lashes out, & our lil hearts’ shrink back - learn to self-protect

✨ A father abandons us, and we blame our own lil selves, believe we must have done something wrong to warrant it, & feel deep shame

✨ A childhood bully sees our sensitivity as weakness & attacks, humiliates us there - and we learn to hide away, harden or numb

•••

& so on..

I see over & over & over again in all my deep Somatic Therapy sessions that these early original “ Wounds of Love “ ( & the beliefs we attach to them ) are what go on to create & set up soooooooooo many painful patterns in us.

They live deep in our subconscious mind. And they affect every facet of our adult lives! Not consciously, but much much deeper in.

Our , our relationships, our relationship with ourselves, our finances, whether we shine in life or not, whether we feel free to be who we really are, our sense of belonging in life, & so on..

💓❤️💓

I love love doing this tender inner work with people, of reconnecting them back to their lil inner children. Guiding them in HOW TO HEAL these original Wounds-of-Love with Love

So that we can change the trajectory of our lives.

When I first started out on my Somatic Healing journey and decided to find a practitioner to work with I interviewed/ tried out a bunch of different people ☺️ and I'm so glad I did.

Back then there were not as many as there are nowadays. I'd had talk psychotherapy before, that incorporated a bit of somatics - but it seemed a bit of a random mishmash of too many techniques, and I couldn't take away any sense of effectiveness or understanding of what we were doing from it.

The next time I started looking, I decided to do myself the self-honour of finding someone I felt really good with. 😊 Luckily for me - I landed upon him, and worked with him for almost 2 years. To this day he is still high on my list of deeply esteemed people 💗🍃

I decided to write this ( & a series of other blogs) for some insider insight.

🌊 Breathe in .. count to 4, Breathe out … count to 4

Notice your shoulders

Your jaw

Give your body a little shake out

Notice which part of your body you’ve been holding a lot.

Here’s a little invite to soften 💓

•Survival Mode • often convinces us we need to keep pushing, striving, fixing, controlling, , figuring things out

💓

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeen there!! Many a time!! ✨

Healing doesn’t mean trying harder

It often begins when we simply take a moment , & when our body feels safe enough to just.. soften.. a bit

A deeper breath

A moment of presence

Noticing the beauty of a view

Thats often the doorway back home to OURSELVES

💓

I’ve just shared a blog all around SURVIVAL MODE - How to get out of it & why its not a mindset issue,

& how nervous system healing can help us fond lasting change

🍃 Do you often feel like you're stuck in a survival mode state? Holding your breath a lot, shoulders & neck tense, tight belly.. feeling anxious or not fully able to just settle, switch off, rest..

Survival mode can show up in a lot of different ways. We may have done a lot of work already & yet still find ourselves entering this state or feeling these things!

Healing isn't about never entering survival mode again.

It's often more about recognising it sooner in our bodies...
meeting it with kindness & compassion...
and having the right tool-kit to know how to get out of it

I've just shared a new blog on how survival mode lives in our nervous system - and why longer lasting change requires more than just mindset & psychological work alone

Some of my recent personal story too 💗

🍃 Fascia, Lymph & The Nervous System 🍃

✨ Did you know?

Your lymphatic system flows through your fascial network.

When fascia is healthy and hydrated, fluids move more freely, supporting your immunity, mobility, and also your nervous system regulation.

When your fascia becomes tight & restricted, fluidity & flow can become less efficient, contributing to feelings of stiffness, heaviness, and tension in your body ~ & also mind!

✨ Healthy fascia = Better flow = Greater ease in body and mind.
