I set myself a challenge for October to **notice beauty** every day. Here are some of my moments:

Slowing down and noticing has regulated my nervous system and let my whole body soak in the reality that *I am here and I'm alive.* Having a daily practice that helps me return to this awareness has grounded me more than ever. And I've realised that this is not only important to me, it also supports my family and my work.  
  
When I am working, I'm supporting your body with clinical knowledge and hands on techniques, AND also providing a calm steady nervous system for you to co-regulate with.

In transitional times, how the people around us are feeling and acting becomes more important than ever. This motivates me to keep up the daily work of *self care as a community service.*  
  
Our underlying nervous system pattern can really affect tension and pain levels in our bodies. These are some of my basic tools for supporting my nervous system to be adaptable, I hope you have space for some of these everyday too:

- breathe fresh air deeply
- move your body slowly, with awareness of what's happening inside
- eat or drink something that nourishes both body and soul
- notice something beautiful and let it move you
- attend closely to the faces of your beloveds
- let your skin give and receive touch

I'm so happy I can see you again for osteo treatment for any reason! I've re-opened online bookings this week, so use the link below if you need.  
  
Love,
