Are you a good receiver?


I was reminded of the healing power of touch and connection this week!

I had a beautiful foot reflexology treatment by Robyn Harding. Robyn's is like being in a room surrounded by angels and sunshine. She loves what she does and your feel her loving kindness through her treatment. She said to me you are a great receiver. That comment stayed with me for a while because I knew exactly what she meant. I totally trusted Robyn and was open and relaxed to receiver her treatment. When a person can completely let go and trust another being to take care of you it brings any treatment into a healing session. The giver of the treatment totally feels that connection.

Myself being a service provider my favourite treatments are when the client allows me to show them care, attention and grace. That connection is very strong and I want to give the client more because they are willing and open to receive the treatment. I find it common for people in the body service industry are more open and accepting in allowing to receive a treatment because they are used having people work on their bodies. (they've had more practice in receiving treatments in school)

The treatment is always what the client is willing to accept as the treatment. Tension in the body is manifested sometimes by stress and the body is trying to create a shell of protection. This shell makes us less open and closed up from others.

Some questions to ask yourself?

-how do you feel during a body work? Are you inflexible? Tense?

(During my foot reflexology treatment I notice that I would tense my pinky finger and I would notice it I would say to it : it's ok you don't need to be tense right now you feel really good right now :D
Thinking about it now it makes me laugh my whole body was relaxed but my pinky finger on my right hand couldn't be relaxed sometimes during my treatment.)

Are you a good receiver?

Do you talk during a healing treatment?

Do you find your body tensing up or physical resistance  during a treatment?

Do you try to help the practitioner by lifting limbs of the body keeping them tense?


After thinking about this comment I though about the association of healing touch to Love.

When we are born our mother held us and that was our first experience to the power of touch.
 I find it fascinating to think of the connection to touch is connected to Love and also being vulnerable like a child.

Accepting someone touch is like accepting someone love.

Are you good receiver of love?

Do you give Love easily?

Do you have a wall up to giving or receiving love to another?



Do me a favour and book your self a healing treatment!

Have a great day!
