I suffered a shoulder injury in my previous job that resulted in my decision to leave a job I did not enjoy and did not see a future for myself in. I made a good income at this job, but I was not fulfilled in this occupation. I enrolled in massage school and gave my notice to my employer. It is a decision that I do not regret. You must first fulfill your own needs. My family can pay our bills, eat healthy food, take care of ourselves and enjoy a little bit of fun with a lesser income from my new career, but the QUALITY OF OUR LIFE is so much better.
I love learning about the human body and how it works best. This career allows me to gain more insight into healthier living and to share my knowledge and skills to help others feel better also. The fact that I am required to reeducate myself to maintain my license as a Massage Therapist is not an obstacle, it is an opportunity to make myself better for myself and my clients. Working in a massage spa, I had the pleasure of working with an awesome Esthetician and realize how much fun she had and I loved looking into her bag of tools (and creams and serums and cleansers and so much more) and wishing I knew what to do with them. So I decided to expand my knowledge base and study esthetics also. I learned so much about the skin and caring for it.
This is such a great field to be in. It is scientific, which the academic in my loves. It is caring, which the empath is me cares about. It is fun, which all of me loves. And I get to meet people from all walks of life and learn their stories and experiences. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with my clients. And now I am going to try to share my knowledge through a new to me format, this blog.
Thanks for reading and please let me know what you think, or if there are topics you would like a discussion on.
