BRING ON THE LIGHT!
October 2024 newsletter
Sunshine is the best medicine, my dear fellow humans🤩
How did everyone's September reset go? Did you manage to be outside more? I was able to increase the outside hours even more, now that it’s been warm enough to do all the computer stuff outdoors. That’s really good for your eyes (and general health) if you can move your desk work outside, even a bit, to eliminate the blue light glare and get some good vitamin D at the same time. I have taken matters a step forward to guard my circadian rhythm and bought red lens glasses to wear in the evening, to try to get rid of the blue light exposure as much as possible. The lenses are good if you are living with other humans and can’t switch off all the lights and use candles only. There are more and more studies of how much technology (artificial light) and the lack of normal light and dark cycles interfere with our health. Balancing your circadian rhythm is worth a try people, it might just give you a better wellbeing boost than any exercise, diet or treatment would on their own.
It is also time to remind you all about shoes, once again, I know. The feet are the foundation of the body. It amazes me every day how shoes are designed to restrict the movement of the foot and mold our feet to an unnatural form. If you were building a house, you would never want unsteady, unbalanced, inclined, or wobbly foundations for it, would you? Yet most of us as humans decide to do just that on our own body’s foundations daily. As everyone can understand if the foundations are not aligned and steady, problems will surface in other parts as well. Feet is one of my biggest wellbeing passions as they affect everything else and the solution to fix this is so easy, ditch the shoes, haha. I am aware that in modern life you can’t go barefoot 24/7 but there are so many barefoot brands these days that everyone will find a shoe that will fit their line of life. If you need any tips, I am more than happy to give suggestions for brands and support your journey towards stronger foundations.
I know I am repeating a few important topics over and over again but as they say, repetition is the mother of all learning. You need to hear things several times before the information sinks in not to even mention that learning a new skill needs at least 10 000 reps to be properly learned. Wellbeing is pretty simple, we as modern humans just love to complicate things.
Speaking of learning new, as I mentioned last month, I have started studying Bowen therapy. The next module is at the end of November, after that, I will need 3 more case studies. That means I need 3 people to receive 3 treatments each of Bowen therapy. I will be doing the treatments free of charge at this stage as I am still learning. What that requires from the volunteers is the commitment to be able to have 3 sessions 1 or 2 weeks apart. If that’s something any one of you would be interested send me a message and we’ll book that in. It’s a cool concept, very different from the healing and massage I do at the moment, so come with an open mind.
Have a great month everyone. Wellbeing is a lifelong journey so don’t rush, we’ll work on it together, it’s my passion to help you help yourself!
Love
Kaisa❤️🐾
