Its so weird to be looking forward and
realizing won't be in person sessioning with real clients until Spring.
This will make it a year "off work" (no one with dog rescue is really
ever off work and I am doing on line things but it's not the client
table work touch sessions).
When I stepped onto the cruise ship last March, I had no
idea we would be stepping off to a world where I wouldn't be in my
studio doing sessions EVER again.
My
clients are all such real people to me, every person I worked with
unique and I am just really really starting to understand that those
sessions will never happen again there.
All the physical things, where
the oil is placed: which lights, which sheets on the table, which
candles and music each person likes, Their pacing, what we talk about,
where their muscles need work, how they decompress. What their favorite drinks and snacks are. What they love me to greet them wearing. The us, the timing the breathing.
All of this will
never happen again in that space.
Some
people will come "back" when my new studio opens. But it will never be
this work, these sessions, the feel of this sanctuary...
The sheer magnitude of a whole year. and NEVER reentering that space to "work" is daunting.
I
had plans on how I was going to make every single last session
memorable. I need to shift those to how to make each new studio warming
session stellar, and I will, it's just a bit big to look at right now
from here.
