♨️Wooohooo our heated BIAN Stone GuaSha Massager has arrived

Would you like to know more about the properties of BIAN stones?

BIAN stones are considered special in traditional Chinese medicine and are valued for their unique properties:

🪨 Composition: BIAN stones are rich in over 40 trace elements and minerals, including calcium, magnesium, and iron, which are beneficial for the human body.

🪨Ultrasonic Pulsation: When rubbed against the skin, BIAN stones are said to emit ultrasonic pulsations that can improve microcirculation and promote cellular repair.

🪨Negative Ions: These stones can emit negative ions, which are thought to purify the air and improve mood and energy levels by counteracting the effects of positive ions from electronic devices.

🪨Thermal Conductivity: BIAN stones have excellent thermal conductivity, allowing them to retain and evenly distribute heat, which is beneficial in hot stone massages.

🪨Abrasive Quality: The fine-grained texture of BIAN stones makes them suitable for gentle exfoliation during a massage, promoting skin health by removing dead skin cells and stimulating cell renewal.

🪨Historical Significance: BIAN stones have been used for thousands of years in Chinese medicine for their purported ability to unblock Qi (vital energy) and enhance the body’s natural healing processes.

🪨Healing Frequency: Some believe that the stones resonate at a frequency that can enhance healing, promote relaxation, and improve overall wellness.

🪨Durability: BIAN stones are durable and can withstand repeated heating and cooling, making them ideal for consistent use in therapeutic settings.

Using BIAN stones in massage combines these properties to provide a holistic approach to health and wellness, addressing both physical and energetic imbalances.

Available within your massage to make it feel even more amazing while you’re lying down relaxing and receiving all the goodness and warmth this winter at Blue Sea Massage.

In-person, 2x day Intensive BREATHWORK FACILITATOR©️ training at “Free To Breathe - Tauranga” March 2024.

⚜️One more little feather in my “healing Journey Jar” ….

So many people still Mouth breathing and unaware they are operating in a stressed state.

Breathing in through your mouth activates your nervous system which is great if you need to run from a tiger or get amped before race. But it also signifies to your body to be hyper vigilant, which increases cortisol, and long term release of this hormone can cause massive adrenal fatigue.
Inhaling and exhaling through the nose will slow your heart rate down and help to switch back over to your sympathetic state - rest and digest.

If you need help retraining your Breathing please reach out so we can discuss a treatment plan for you moving forward.

The vitality and peace you can experience as a predominantly Nasal Breather will add so much benefit to your wellbeing.

👃 Nasal breathing during exercise has numerous benefits: it warms and filters the air, efficiently removes carbon dioxide, and increases nitric oxide production, improving oxygen delivery to muscles.

👃An ideal pattern is a 5-6 second inhale and exhale.

✅Start gradually to avoid discomfort and air hunger. Practice by alternating nasal and mouth breathing, and ensure your tongue is at the roof of your mouth to relax your jaw.

✅Over time, nasal breathing will enhance your exercise efficiency and reduce breathlessness. Give it a try and let your body adjust!

My morning practice of deep Yin stretching; melting my extremely tight hips and knees. Years and years of protecting my womb space, but now understanding this is the foundation of a Yogic life. Without a full range of motion in my joints, the muscles are unable to fully express and expand to their full length.

It’s been 3 weeks of Yin Deep every day and I’m starting to feel my body open. It’s starting to finally feel safe. I’m so incredibly grateful for the experience I had in Tauranga with .co.nz learning and feeling through a lot of past Trauma. I get it all so deeply now. I had no idea the impact this course would have on my brain body and soul, talk about life changing. I’m so freakin excited about my future. A future free of having to drag my backpack of traumatic experiences with me wherever iv been and whatever relationships iv had in the past.

I feel lighter already ☯️🌀🌙🌟

Yin yoga works deeply into our body with passive, longer-held poses. It targets the deepest tissues of the body, our connective tissues – ligaments, joints, bones, the deep fascia networks of the body and the meridians.

☯️This is contrast to a Yang yoga practice such as Vinyasa yoga which targets the muscles. Which is more Yang, or heating up the body more.

🌀 ….. will be opening shortly in Cooks Beach ….. stay tuned …. Excited to say the least to be able to bring this unique and life changing modality to our community.

🦋Beginners and advanced, young and elderly, will be welcomed always and all the asanas can be modified to your individual body’s, so knee implants, hip implants, sore shoulders, tight necks … all welcome.

🦋I honestly believe that after 15 years of feeling into bodies with my hands and my heart, Yin Yoga is such a seamless transition. Knowing deeply myself about trauma and how the body holds it has been such a powerful blessing.
Man am I so grateful and hopeful and truly joyful for this new pathway ahead.

I’ll still be massaging though. I’ll still be massaging when I’m a granny; purple hair, more shells outside the studio, maybe Jay will build me a ramp instead of steps lol. My first love will always be massage. 🦋

Well what is “TRAUMA SENSITIVE SOMATIC YIN YOGA?? ….

Trauma-sensitive yin yoga is a specialized approach to yoga that integrates the principles of yin yoga with trauma-informed practices to create a safe and supportive environment for individuals who have experienced trauma. Here are the key elements of trauma-sensitive yin yoga:

1. **Yin Yoga Principles:**

- **Slow and Gentle:**

Yin yoga involves holding passive poses for an extended period, typically 3-5 minutes, to target deep connective tissues, fascia, and joints.

**Stillness and Introspection:**

The practice encourages mindfulness, stillness, and deep relaxation.

2. **Trauma-Sensitive Approach:**

**Safety and Comfort:**

Emphasis on creating a safe and non-judgmental space. Props and modifications are encouraged to ensure comfort.

- **Choice and Empowerment:**

Participants are given choices and control over their practice, including options to modify or skip poses.

- **Language and Cues:**

Instructors use invitational and non-directive language, avoiding commands or potentially triggering phrases.

**Awareness of Triggers:**

Instructors are trained to recognize and respond to signs of trauma responses, ensuring a gentle and sensitive approach.

**Grounding Techniques:**

Incorporation of grounding techniques and mindfulness to help participants stay present and connected to their bodies.

3. **Benefits for Trauma Survivors:**

- **Physical Relaxation:**

Helps release tension and stress stored in the body.

**Emotional Regulation:**

Encourages emotional balance and can help manage anxiety and stress.

- **Increased Awareness:**

Promotes body awareness and mindfulness, aiding in the healing process.

- **Empowerment:**

Provides a sense of control and choice, which can be empowering for trauma survivors.

Overall, trauma-sensitive yin yoga aims to create a nurturing and healing environment that supports individuals in their recovery and overall well-being.

THE RISE OF THE WOMAN 🔥

She’s been suppressed, oppressed, at times depressed,
But she is rising…
She’s been confused, used, abused & bruised
But she is rising…
She’s been isolated, abandoned & rejected,
so she blamed, cursed & deflected,
But she is rising…
She doesn’t know her real strength because she has never flexed,
Starting to take action has left her perplexed,
But she is rising…
She knows there is more,
greatness at her core,
yet fear grips her because of what she has seen before,
But she is rising…
She feels like no one gets her,
no one cares for what she’s been through,
But now she has learnt that they’re not meant to,
She is rising…
She is starting to take risks, doing things she has never done before,
She is beginning to accept that it is her time to soar,
She is rising…
She is making moves & facing all her fears,
Choosing to be courageous despite weak knees & tears,
She is rising…
Breaking all the molds, she is choosing to be seen,
No more fear of the dark places where she has been,
She is rising…
She’s not fighting for her place
Just receiving her inheritance by His grace,
She’s not angry, bitter or spiteful
Just taking back her place that is rightful,
Not higher or lower, not above or under,
Just bold & strong with a sweet surrender,
She is done with hiding, done with being ruled,
Done with the lies & decades of being fooled,
She is ready now & is training for the more,
It’s just a matter of time before you will hear her roar,
With nothing to prove & no one to impress,
She is being her true self, not more or less,
Ownership & Accountability,
She is beginning to take responsibility,
Not one dimensional, not settling for a small part,
She is going for it all, Spirit, Soul, Body & Heart‼️

IT IS MY HONOUR TO RUN WITH HER

Coming to see me for your massage is a wonderful thing you are doing for yourself.

You’re putting yourself first. You are prioritising yourself above everything else today.

You have made a vow to yourself that you are going to look after your body and love on it whenever you feel you want to, without any justification to yourself or anyone else.

The other thing is:

“What you say to yourself matters”

Words have a powerful placebo effect on our injuries, or if we have had a surgical procedure or if we are going through rehabilitation of body or mind.

For example, saying things like:

“I keep getting sick” instead of “I am healthy and healing wonderfully”

“My back has always been a problem” instead of “I’m curious about why my back challenges me”

“Nothing ever helps” instead of
“I want to be healed” “how can I help this issue”

“I’m never going to get better” instead of
“I’m getting better everyday”.

When something happens to the body it is very clever in setting up a pain loop.
Think Neuroplasticity.
The loop is cemented through thoughts first, further cementing a pattern of tightness and protection in the body.

Massage, heat, cold, somatic movement, breathing techniques, jumping, shaking and tapping, are ways to interrupt this neurological pain pathway or loop.

Have you ever tried Massage to break the chain??? Have you ever tried massage?
Please do reach out if you think this may help. If you have a chronic Pain pattern, a programme of 3 1xhr massages, spaced out at 7 day intervals can be key in interrupting the messages your brain has got used to sending.

Me in 41 degrees while I stood in front of Djoser melting.

Little bit of calibration to be done, so resting in our cave until our body clocks adjust back to NZ time.

One of my little secret endeavours while travelling abroad was to find us some very special oils or balms.

Find them I did! An incredible life changing journey through Egypt from Cairo, to Giza, Aswan and Luxor; connecting with some magical humans, I was able to bring back some incredible Egyptian Oils, including the famous Blue Lotus which I know you’re going to love.

I have a range of 6 other oils we can add to your massage experience at Blue Sea but these will incur an additional charge of $5 to be able to fund the next batch of oils from my supplier in Egypt.

As far as I’m aware these 6 oils cannot be found in NZ yet so they are pretty special, and guess what… when you book in for a massage YOU can be one of the first to try them.

Also thanks to everyone who followed our journey through Europe via my stories on here. I hope it bought you smiles and joy and ignited your travel desires. It’s a treasure and a blessing to be able to travel … our earth and all its inhabitants are truly truly wondrous.

Anyhoo, see you soon at Blue Sea Massage Cooks Beach, Oyster Drive. To book ph JoJo on 0226825500.

Clients booked in for Sunday so it’s all stations go from there.
Iv just posted new OPENING HOURS, Monday,
Wednesday,
Friday and Saturday…
basically whenever you need me on those days
and then
CLOSED
Tuesday,
Thursday and Sunday.
Also anyone who paid for the Sound Healing please get in touch with me so I can refund your money.

Whilst I was abroad it was just too hard to promote the event given time difference and being on a Europe and Egypt Sim so I wasn’t contactable, so I had no idea of who wanted to book in. Next time I’ll try and be better prepared with a “Book & Pay” function to make it easier for all who want to attend the next Sound Healing at Cooks Beach Hall.

If you love music and also love lying down and relaxing to receive it?… this is perfect potent time to heal and unite us as a strong loving Community. Next full moon Sound Healing Cooks Beach Hall 29th September … please book spot early as we have a 30 person limit this time round. Touch base with JoJo at Blue Sea Massage Cooks Beach to book in.

What a magical night of music we had last night. A portal of pure love and expansion. Each person downloading into the matrix and upgrading from the cosmos above.

This little gig is up and running for our quiet winter period here, so please give JoJo a call if your keen on a massage with her over on “The Darkside” aptly named when Cooks Beach had no street lights.

It’s been a challenging 2 years working in Cooks Beach. So much uncertainty. But one thing I’m always grateful for are my wonderful regular clients …. Can’t do it without your support. Truly grateful🏖️☀️🌸

Fantastic day today … bout time I started investing in the business side of Blue Sea… iv not really had the energy or inclination to spend any time on social media but if I want to reach the masses, it’s important to polish things up a bit. I mostly rely on my talented fingers to do the Mahi but it’s feeling like the right space and time to flourish and shine some more.
Thanks to this amazing human who gave up her precious time to help me out today. Got some awesome footage for my new upcoming Website. Lots of photos and videos for future posts. Bit of brainstorming and trying to figure out my iPhones capabilities. Exciting stuff in the pipeline so stay tuned. Xx

Another beautiful client through my doors.

Epic week of Spray Tanning at Blue Sea Massage. I really enjoy creating with my hands and the skin is literally the canvas I work with everyday, so I love this little side hustle …. Don’t forget to spread the word for summer peeps!!!! Let me create some magic tan colours for you…. ❤️Jo@BLUE SEA MASSAGE

Just to let everyone know that Blue Sea Massage in Oyster Drive, Cooks Beach, will be open all Kings Birthday weekend.
Please call JoJo for your preferred day and time early on: 022-682-5500

I’m Tanning for a Bridal Party on Thursday 25th so the tent will be up and the spray gun humming, with 4 afternoons spots up for grabs. You can choose from seven different shades and some are violet based and green based for a beautiful mahogany or Ash brown finish - no orange or yellow here!
MineTan is what I use at Blue Sea which is totally vegan, natural, and cruelty free.
So come on girls … get yo’self some “Sunshine Colour”❤️❤️ message Jo for a Tan spot now …. 0226825500

So I had a client in this week who had had a fall onto their tailbone as a young child and this area has always felt tight and sore.

Cupping can be amazing to help gently pull fluid through constricted tissue which helps to heal/regenerate/rehydrate an area of stagnation.

The smaller cups are directly over sacrum with a medium suction and bigger cups on outer edges of sacrum and also over lower back muscle with a gentle suction too.

A little bit goes a loooong way with cups. Emotions can also feel locked into these areas so gently does it when using cups.

Openly talking about what was arising during this work helps process feelings as well.

I have so much respect for this modality as I get to witness changes in the tissues and the person.

The cupping continues to work long after the session has finished…. My favourite little helpers!
Have you had Cupping before? Keen to give it a try? Cupping can be included in your session without any extra cost. Winning either way⭐️🦋☀️

If your looking for Lash Extensions or a Nail technician…. Aimee Jackman in Whitianga is our local superstar. Her number and booking details are over on her page so give her a follow/like/comment and book in before she’s so busy you can’t get in!!! Love supporting our local business woman!!!

GIVEAWAY

Haven’t done a giveaway for a while so here’s your chance if you fancy some time on my table.

Tag someone lovely who needs a restorative massage worth $100 or tag yourself!

I'm giving away one free massage to someone in Cooks Beach during the Easter School holidays,
Comment below with a friend or two + like my page.
Must be available between the 10th-23rd April 2023.

In between our first breath in and our last breath out, is the gift we call life.
In between morning and night, and night and morning, is where all the magic happens.
In between each breath we take, there is a space of stillness.
In between the words we speak, there is a space of silence.
In between what you once were and what you are now becoming, is growth.
The moments in between, is really where the dance of life takes place.
You are meant to be where you are right now, there is so much learning to be had in the present moment. Sometimes I want to leap ahead to what’s next, sometimes I want time to stand still so I don’t get older, but one thing I do know is that our next moment is never promised and some people don’t get to live to 52. A long life is not guaranteed, so seize the day, if you yearn to do something courageous and brave, go do it!!! No ifs no buts…. Take that leap into the unknown, cause on the other side of No ……is ……Yes!!!! Jumping is scary and hard …. But when your up in the air souring through the sky, that’s where all the fun and beauty is and when you land bravely you realise how immaculate your life truly can be….and already is❤️🌸
