THE MOON

I would like to share an inspirational story dedicated to my dearest mom who passed away on the 27th January, 2013.

My mom was a firm believer in the energies of the full moon and used to do a full moon meditation each month.  The time of her passing was one could say by co-incidence, but I believe planned by her.  She passed at the full moon as it was shining brightly in the sky.  On Thursday the 25th April would have been her 80th birthday and it also happened to be full moon!

We gathered as a family at the cliff paths in our gorgeous little town to lay her ashes, her favourite place to walk.  The moon was so full and shining so brightly over the sea and there wasn't a breath of wind.  We wrote on floating lanterns and set them off into the sky.  Ending with the OM sound and saying her favourite prayer - The Great Invocation.  Truly the most incredible ceremony, which left me feeling on a high for a while.

What a wonderful reminder each month of my beautiful mom.

Hamba kakuhle mama wam, siyathanda kakuhle!............go well on your journey my mother, we love you!

Learning How Reflexology May Help You

Earlier this week I found myself on an incredible internet journey. . . DESTINATION: Articles and Info about specific ways reflexology may help you, your family and your friends. I was serious about this. You must understand, in the USA not too much research has been done to document the results reflexologists see everyday. Other countries (Denmark, UK, and China mostly) have done extensive research. Their results have encouraged them to place reflexology into the mainstream of the medical community. Tennessee, the state where I live and practice reflexology, was the first state to actually set reflexolgoy apart from other modalities and professions, and its regulation does fall under health related boards. That is certainly a positive!!! My journey did lead to some interesting locations I would love to share with you. I believe if you will check these out you will learn so much about the value of reflexology as not only one of the most incredibly relaxing experiences you may have, but...

2nd Question! Your Answer/Comment is Another Opportunity in Our Give Away

We continue in this month of counting blessings and thankfulness with our celebration of Footsteps In Eden Reflexology's 4th Birthday. From our very beginning, Footsteps In Eden chose to offer you way more than a reflexology "session." Our goal was to offer you an experience of delight for all the senses. We appeal to your sense of smell through the use of aromatherapy. In our case, high quality therapeutic grade essential oils from Young Living .  Did you know that of all of our senses, the sense of smell is the only one where we react first and think about our response later? Something to think about, but not the question for today. So, the question is, what is your favorite essential oil, how do you use it, and why?  To familiarize yourself with essential oils and their benefits, begin your journey of discovery here .
