Our annual "Reality Check" course kicks off tomorrow! Eee!
For many folk this is the third of the four Mastery Programme modules. It's also an opportunity for any Association member to join in and see where the journey could take them

REALLY looking forward to it 🙂

I'm working on a new resource for our members which involved being inducted into the wonderful world of letterpressing at The Vintage Printworks yesterday. PHWOAH. Super excited on many levels - especially as there may be more letterpressing in my future 😻

Of course I'm biased because I created it, but I honestly find this poster so useful - it helps me slow down and make conscious decisions about what I do, what strategies or aids to use, and what I need to do to recover. It's also a great way to help other people understand my decisions.
Title: “To do or not to do?” pacing and activity decision chart [blue header and footer.] (Note: This is a simplified version. This process varies between individuals.) This chart has boxes with questions in – each box having a yes or no answer – which sends you down different paths to help you reach a conclusion about whether to do an activity or not (or to help explain your decision to someone else). Box 1: Given current symptoms, will I be able to complete the task? Yes Box 2: Will it cause a significant increase in pain/fatigue/other symptoms? Yes/Unsure Box 3: Can I make it more manageable by: splitting the task into smaller sections? using an adaptation or aid to make it easier? asking for help with challenging parts of the activity? having an exit strategy if it turns out to be too much? Yes. Box 4: do I have enough recharge time between now and when I next need to function? No. Outcome: Best not. It may be okay to do this in emergencies or on special occasions.

Getting injured sucks. So does burn out. And feeling like you've lost your mojo.

We've been helping therapists regain their love of this awesome profession for almost 30 years - learn how in today's blog (www.the4elementscompany.com/-it-saved-my...)

Only ONE WEEK left for the Early Booking savings!

Our Zero Strain Massage:Full Body training this October is currently available at a £300 saving-but only until August 31st.

Rachel Naomi Remen M.D. has died at the age of 88. I didn't know her personally but she has been a big figure in my life - read more at the link. Thinking of those who knew her, and wishing them support in their grief. /Tigger

It's always a privilege to share the wonderful world of 4Elements with therapists. Especially our Zero Strain Massage: Full Body course - because they leave with all the tools they need to stay safe for the rest of their career. Think of all those extra clients they can see! /Tigger
Massage client lies face down. Female massage therapist is massaging her back. Overlaid is a student testimonial: "The course exceeded my expectations - I hadn't previously realised how physically demanding classical massage is for the practitioner's body." from Olga Immonen about the 4Elements Zero Strain Massage: Full Body training. 4Elements logo in the bottom right hand corner Side view of white male Massage therapist on the left. On the right a black female Massage therapist faces us. You cannot see the client they are both Massaging. Overlaid is a student testimonial: "The training was absolutely wonderful. I truly appreciate how the trainers see each participant as an individual. This makes it easier even for someone like me, who tends to feel nervous, to take on board the teaching. THANK YOU!" from Mervi Hurme about the 4Elements Zero Strain Massage: Full Body training. 4Elements Touch Therapy logo in the bottom right hand corner On the left a black female student looks over the shoulder of the tutor (lower down, on the right hand side, white female).

Massage in the Community: a little taste from my recent conversation with long-time practitioner, Claire Skeete, about her experiences of working with communities in London who wouldn't be able to access Massage otherwise.

And yes, she does get paid! Full interview at link
