Today I got a massage from my amazingly talented friend A, who helped release my tight pecs and shoulders. Her fingers are like magic and she knows so much about the body, the connections. It is a great time to turn inside, to realize through breathe and relaxation and quieting the mind, that I can make some of the pain go away, that I can help A as she massages my muscles.
Next time I need to sit quietly before I go in for my massage. I need to work on slowing down my ever-racing mind and release the tension that seems to enjoy residing in my neck before I lie on the table; I need to play a more participatory role in my massages. Massages are about relaxation, but they are not about going in and expecting your masseuse to solve everything.
I have realized through working with A that massages can go deeper, literally and figuratively, that they are more than just letting someone rub your muscles. They are a time to be present, to show up, and to do some hard work. And have amazing results at the end...
