Mindfulness and Massage
Combining Mental and Physical Relaxation
Tips for Practicing Mindfulness During Massage
1. Breath deeply: inhale peace, exhale tension.
2. Stay present: Notice how each part of your body feels as it's being worked on.
3. Let go of thoughts: When your mind wanders, gently bring it back to your breath or the sensation of the massage.
4. Set an intention: Before your session, think of a word or phrase like "relax, "release," or restore."
