Stay Hydrated!
Especially going into the cooler months, we can forget to drink enough fluids. Chronic dehydration can cause a whole host for problems, from headaches, muscle cramps and brain fog. Are you staying hydrated?
Your body is roughly 50–60% water. The exact amount varies with age and body composition. Water is an essential part of your cells, tissues, and organs. nationalacademies.org
Water helps cushion and lubricate your joints. Staying hydrated supports the fluids that protect your joints as you move throughout the day. CDC
Hydration supports clear thinking. Dehydration can contribute to difficulty concentrating and changes in mood—so your water intake can affect how you feel mentally as well as physically. CDC
Water helps regulate body temperature. Your body loses water through sweat, making fluid replacement especially important during exercise and hot weather. U.S. Geological Survey

Just Breathe...
Breath work practices don't need to be complex to work. If you ever catch yourself feeling overwhelmed or anxious, give box breath a try. Box breathing is a simple practice that can help you slow down, reconnect with your body, and feel more grounded.
Inhale gently for a count of four, hold for four, exhale for four, and pause for four. See why its called the box breath? Repeat this pattern for three to five rounds while noticing how your body responds.
Keep your breath comfortable rather than forcing it. If holding your breath feels uncomfortable, shorten the count or skip the pauses altogether. Let your body guide you.

I chat with LMT and Craniosacral Practitioner Joel Fields of Ohio in this episode. We talk about the importance of trauma informed care when it comes to bodywork, and some of the challenges faced by male massage therapists in a female dominated industry.

One of the things I have noticed is that sometimes we tend to lose motivation to connect with ourselves and make self care a priority. That’s why I started the Empowered Healing Support Calls. They are a free to attend for anyone inside or outside of the community zoom call. It’s a chance to connect with others, share your struggles and get support from professionals (which is currently me at the moment). Our next call is Sept 12th at 7pm. I hope to see some of you there! Get registered here https://www.tjtbodywork.com/booking-calendar/empowered-healing-support-call
