Stillness Within Massage Therapy, Elspeth Acosta LMT I listen deeply to my clients. I do not insert myself in order to fix discomfort, but rather meet tension exactly where it is and invite it to melt in my hands.

Are you giving yourself space to process the change in your life?

Massage therapy is an incredible tool for embodied processing. I find that when I can totally melt into my own body, I come to a knowing that isn’t possible through my thoughts. Then my head catches up and I move through the change with that much more grace.

Give yourself the time and space today, no matter what it is that you’re going through.

Whatever you give your attention, time and energy to will grow in your life. Try to have less fear and instead more intention on everything that is possible.

Life is a roller coaster and truly becomes what we make of it.

I power hiked the Pikes Peak Ascent today. To be on the trail with 2000 other people all focused on the same goal definitely connected me to something outside of myself. I wasn't sure I'd love hiking with 2000 of my best friends, but turns out it was really uniting and an awesome way to spend my Saturday.

All of the hiking I've done over the past several months has opened my heart and saved my sanity in countless ways. More often than not my internal narrative turns completely off on the trail. To just be in my body and let life process with each step has been such a blessing. I'm a firm believer that the body knows best. If we give our bodies ample opportunity to move while also giving our minds permission to take a break - so much healing can occur. I'm a living testament.

Go move your body. Connect to something outside yourself. Forget your internal narrative and see what happens.

Just yesterday I came across one small and then one giant snake. I've always had an interesting relationship with snakes. They make me feel uncomfortable and on edge. Not squeamish, not afraid - more aware of something deeper I can't quite name and don't really want to face.

The large snake was especially beautiful. Sunning himself on a rock, grounded and rooted exactly where he was. I stood there and looked at him, softening my feelings about him and realized... I don't need to feel so uncomfortable. If I am open and receptive to this creature, what else could there be to learn?

This morning I read something really beautiful that just as snakes navigate the world through deep sensory awareness rather than sight or sound, that encountering a snake can urge us to trust our inner voice as we face uncertainty.

The snake and his crawl close to the earth also reminds us to stay rooted and steady while life changes around you.

Maybe those snakes showed up yesterday for me as a reminder to trust myself, to settle in and follow my intuition. Only by being open can the universe fill us up with her knowledge.

Support is such an integral part of navigating when life gets hard.

My mentor, Margaret, always said that support has to actually be felt in order to be effective. You can be consumed with overwhelm and lie down on the sofa for a break, but unless you really allow your body to soften and relax into the sofa... the sofa isn't doing anything. You have to actually allow yourself to feel the support of that sofa for it to be effective.

Same goes for bodywork. The bodyworker needs to be present with her support and the client has to be willing to receive it. No talking necessary, just nurturing, present, supportive hands. Hands that communicate "I'm here."

A client review that left be brimming from ear to ear. To have my touch and services held to the standard of the Esalen Institute is an incredible compliment and testimony of my work. Feedback like this is validating and heart warming. These are the reminders that this work is exactly where I'm supposed to be.

So much love to all my clients. Keep the feedback coming!

Communicating love leaves us feeling more deeply in touch with that which makes us alive. Nurturing, therapeutic touch is my favorite way to communicate love. It's why I became a bodyworker.

Communicating love gives me a sense of purpose. I consider today a complete success if the only thing I do is connect from my heart space.

Love is the universal language. Each and every single person we come across deserves to be met with an open heart and experience love. From someone you've never met before, to an acquaintance, to a platonic friend, to the one with whom you share deep romance... love has a seat at the table.

So deepen in, communicate love and see what unfolds. I promise only good things will come of it.

xoxo
