New Optimized Scheduling Times.

New Optimized Scheduling times.

Some time has passed since my last posting. If you’re following along, you probably know I’m constantly carrying a pretty big load of projects and education I’m working toward.

That’s not to glorify my busy-ness or make some list of reasons to break my communication. Essentially, what I want to say, is that when I’m quiet, I’m preparing to launch something. And-it’s just me so I don’t have anyone else writing for me. I actually love to write as a part of self-expression but it takes a lot of time to get into the write (see what I did there? ha!) place mentally. I often begin these things and they sit in my queue for days until I can return and refine. Anyone else a creative and can relate?

Changes to scheduling and evolving projects.

During a recent Luteal Phase tantrum (IYKYK) I had a realization about a few things. This is the beauty of cycle syncing and feeling fully into the phase we’re in. If you don’t know about cycle syncing, I’d love to talk to you about it. Yes, even men have a cycle. We are all being nudged by cycles even if it’s simply the change of season. It’s been clear to me that some things needed to change for me but the wisdom of Luteal brought some clarity.

Many conversations I’ve had with clients illuminate the pressures all over the world. I get it. I feel it too. That’s why I’ve been adamant not to raise my prices even though I have also felt the pressure.

Instead of raising my prices, I’m looking to optimize my schedule. Moving forward, I have a few options to consider.

 

  • 75 minute sessions will no longer exist.
  • 90 Minute sessions are preferred for so many reasons. And yet, time and money is what it’s all about, right? So I will still offer 60 minutes and the sliding scale offerings. Honestly, the majority of you schedule 90 minutes sessions anyway so I don’t anticipate a lot of challenge here. These 90 min sessions will be table or mat massage or a combo of both.
  • 2 hour sessions are also still available and I love those as well!
  • Foot soaks are also available and at no cost.
  • Booking times are the biggest thing that’s changing. This will take a few months to shake out as we get used to it. This is the best way for me to optimize my day while giving my brain expected space to work on some of the other projects I’ve been yearning to birth into the world.
  • Monday/Friday 830a, 1030a, 1230p, 230p
  • Wednesday 130p, 330p, 530p
  • Workshops: Please consider the workshops I’ll be releasing soon.
