Bernies Body Therapy

Gratitude something i have spoken about before and today there is so much to be grateful for.
It’s 3 years since our loving humerous, caring amazing mum left this planet to be with our dad.
We learnt from both mum and dad all about being grateful for all we have and they left a huge legacy and so many fabulous memories of fun times filled with family and friends.
We were surrounded by love of many.
A strong family unit even though we all live different lives in different places ( there is 8 siblings) but we all have the same mindset when it comes to family which is what we were taught. Family is no 1.
So today i’m super grateful for what we have, what we have had ( many a great party) and the fact we are all still here as well.
Know one knows what tomorrow brings so be present and enjoy life with the ones you love.
There is just so much to be grateful for 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

was a great night of song with great performances 👍👍👏👏👏well done everyone

Tracey’s team absolutely rocked it tonight. Could not be more proud of the talent, confidence and courage you all showed. The way you support each other is everything The Voice is about. Fantastic night showing off all of your hard work. 🎶❤️🎶

My garden gnome has been doing a great job watching over my garden and the tomatoes just keep on giving
also a couple of random spuds that i didn’t think would do much so the garden is always a gift.
Garden times is part of self care as when there it’s very grounding, it provides with some produce, fresh air, sometimes more bugs than desired but hey it’s Queensland 😂
All in all being able to grow some produce is an absolute pleasure and im very grateful to have a place to be able to do this.
Wishing you all a great week 🌷🌷🌷🌷

Here is a post from a few years ago but is still very relevant today. My clients that have come for this treatment have left feeling so much lighter as the body had released hidden thoughts and beliefs that we carry with us unconsciously. I love doing this treatment as it is not invasive and no words need to be spoken if the client just wants to be in the moment.

Ever have those days when you feel like
your circuit has dropped out or you have
blown a fuse, the mind is foggy and you have no clarity?

Access bars is a great treatment for such things!

By touching 32 points on the head
we can delete unwanted energies
from the subconscious mind

its a bit like defragging your computer
the result being, more clarity and a much lighter feeling through your body 💓

ABUNDANCE this is my word for the week which started with an abundance of tomatoes from my garden.
I then recieved the Gratitude Gains and Appreciation journal for me and for my teenaged granddaughters and one for grandson as well ( they are yet to receive them ).
Abundance comes in many forms and i’m choosing it in the positive.
We are great creators, and the world needs more and more positve actions and thoughts. What is it you have in abundance?
What would like to have in abundance?

Some networking this morning meeting some new people and some familiar faces.

A great afternoon with the gorgeous Margie and co ( sorry have forgotten the other ladies name 🤦‍♀️) at Fluid Art and Wellness afternoon. Thank you for such a great day loved every bit and learnt how things don’t need to be as hard as we tend to think fabulous 👏👏👏👏❤️❤️

First lot of potatoes dug today garden looking awesome looking forward to tasting the little morsels for dinner tonight . 👍👍👍🥔🥔

No walk this morning but while sitting with morning cup of tea i enjoyed the view of the sky this morning, ☕️

i missed the sunrise but felt this veiw was just as beautiful. 🌤️

Then off to the garden to check it out and give it abit of a drink and dig out some unwanted w**ds that love to pop up. 🌱

Everything looks very happy and growing well plus it’s a great place to ground and calm one’s self ready for the day.

Here’s to a Thankful Thursday 🙏💕

Different place again for walk this morning with Danni along the Strand and past the Marina another cracker morning in downtown Townsville

This mornings walk i took a different route through the golf club that is not far from where we live.⛳️🏌🏻‍♂️

Another stunning morning to set me up for another day to nurture and be of service to others through my massage.💆‍♀️

All therapist have their own way in how they massage, and i believe there is a therapist out there for everyone just like any other form of therapy and beauty.👩‍🦳🙌👏

Self care is what it’s about as our bodies do a lot of work consciously and unconsciously.💕

KatieJoytheglobalbutterfly teaches us this all the time in the knowledge and learnings she teaches

Bringing our selves back into a balanced state is one of the major keys to have a great life, and a great life can be even greater when we do the no 1 most important thing for self

SELF CARE 🧖 💕

Have a terrific TUESDAY folks 🌷🌷

River walks never disappoint this morning was no exception even Pete the Pelican cruised on by.
And what a difference half an hour makes on the view.
Nature can really touch your soul and nourish you by just being in it.
A massage in nature you could say so for me it’s a great way to start my day and get sorted for the week ahead nurturing others through my massage.
Have a magical Monday 🌷🌷

Another wonderful weeks work done and one of my lovely clients reminded me today of this song Born Free, a song with beautiful lyrics that can set one free, have a listen sometime, it will stir your heart im sure 👍

So true have a great day everyone

Been sometime since walking by the river due to it being just a little warm, 😓our weather is now less humid which makes walking much more enjoyable. 🚶‍♀️

Still swimming 🏊‍♀️ but abit more spasmodically must be getting abit soft lol, water temp has dropped but of course once your in it’s a great way to get some exercise and easy on the body also.

Exercise is a fabulous way to help calm down the nervous system that is in a constant state of stress 🤯😲whether you’re aware of that or not.

Life can be busy and we can and do lose track of where we are at in the direction that we want to go in. 🌠

This all pretty much comes down to self care the most important thing to do for oneself. 💕

Everyone has their version of self care,
For me it’s exercise lots of filtered water, massage and watching what i eat ( sometimes my choices are not so good 😊 ) 🤦‍♀️

Our intentions are what counts, being aware of what our choices and decisions are! 🤔

Will they have a good outcome or is it detrimental to our health and well being. 😉

What’s something you can change to create your ideal health in body mind and spirit 🧖‍♀️

We have the answers it’s just a matter of tapping into them and maybe asking for help.

Happy to help where i can 👍🌷💕

Good Night ✨🌙 Sweet dreams 💖

Tonight i thought i’d do something different a the end of another great week.
One of my lovely clients told me about night yoga down by the sea so thought i’d give it a go. ( Thank you Ayesha)
What a lovely place to just be let alone doing yoga ( which i must say i was very surprised at myself managing to do it after along time not doing it 🤭)
Cheryl was the yoga teacher, thank you Cheryl 🙏
This was a little bit outside the comfort zone for me so i’m pretty pumped about it.

The evening was perfect and i came away feeling very pleased with myself but more importantly very grounded👣to have feet firmly on the soft green grass felt heavenly 🌠

Sometimes it’s really good to push oneself to do something different 🤩

Have a great weekend people’s 👍🌷💕

Yesterdays time in the garden i was joined by some lovely wee creatures ( no snakes 🐍) I love the wee green frog and i haven’t seen one for a long time. Where have they all gone ?

Being in nature is truely one of the many gifts we are given.

It’s very grounding and therapeutic especially digging up what’s not serving you any more and making space for the new to come in.

It’s a form of letting go the same as in everyday life we need to learn to let go of things that don’t serve us any more.

Having attachments to things and people is not a healthy thing.

Being kind and have no judgement to things people and places but enjoy it all for what it is right now.

Be present and enjoy the journey, if you are focused on what was or could be you might miss what is 💕

March has marched on in like a boss 🤪

After being away for a month there has been a sort of cyclone and lots of rain which means massive growth in the garden and that’s an understatement 🙃🙃.

Not taking great care of our emotions and bodies also can lead to creating abit of a mess, in this case it’s my garden so it was time in the weekend to get in there and get rid of the over growth of unwanted foliage and as you can see there is plenty of that.

Was great to be back in the garden even as daunting as it was when i first rocked up.

It is a great reminder also to make sure we do take care of ourselves, w**d the w**ds, release the emotions ( recognise them first for what they represent) massage for the muscle tension and aches and pains which i had after two days of w**ding😜

Gardening gives so much pleasure when you have cleared the space leaving it open for the new to come through.

Same with our bodies once you release emotions and tension in the body through energy work and massage you can move through each day with much more ease.

Look forward to seeing you at your next massage session 👍

Only a few spaces left this week
pm me when you would like to book in 👏🙏

Today i experienced some Traditional Maori Healing from a beautiful lady Atarangi Muru in Kaitaia.

Once again the energy in the room was so peaceful but also lots of conversations and laughter with both clients and practioners.

So wonderful to experience other modalities all about caring for others and for practioners to be able to do this we have to first look after ourselves 🙏 very grateful 💕

Today i had a beautiful massage and healing from Satchya here in the far north new zealand Ngataki is the place and what a beautiful healing session i had in natural suroundings.

The energy of this place was magic and very grounding hope to get another one in before we leave.

Filled my cup for sure as it was getting just abit low on it so timing 👌 perfect

What have you done for yourself today, this week or this month to refuel your energy?

This magestic Pohutukawa tree is situated down at Hohora Heads just south of Pukenui in the far north.

It is a symbol of spiritual connection of the beginning and end of life.

In traditional Maori herbal medicine it has been used topically for wounds and abrasions.

The bark contains ellagic acid, which has anti oxidants and anti inflammatory properties, mother nature is truely amazing.

It represents strength and indurance through winter months and shades you in the summer months.

I’m a bit of a tree hugger and love the power these trees command so to be sitting under such a tree and just enjoying its beauty is a treat in its own 🌲

Milly really wanted to come with us sorry milly you have to stay for now.
A nice glass of NZ Sav wine before boarding our already late plane but that’s not a stress.
Time to sit and reflect and of course to people watch always an interesting past time.
For those in Townsville keep safe fingers crossed this cyclone just brings some well needed rain and that is all.
Looking forward to spending time with family and the big celebration of a littler sibling turning a significant no.
Then moving on to more friends and family in Nelson and the far far north.
I am super grateful to travel home, family and friends are the bomb and all that goes with it.
I also am grateful for all my friends clients and mentors i have in Townsville and afar.
We are forever learning and growing and there is always something to be grateful for even on the not so good days🥰
Much love and light to you all we are off to the Mother Land 💕💕💕
