First Week of Massage Therapy School

OK, so I'm back in school... And, let me say that there's a lot of reading and A LOT of memorization! LOL. It's also funny because I'm TWICE the age of some of the people in my classes, yet I feel just as young as they are...go figure! Anyhow, I've definitely made the right choice for myself. Massage Therapy is my niche. The idea of learning about the various planes of movement (sagittal, transverse, frontal) directions and positions (superior/inferior, posterior(dorsal)/anterior(ventral), medial/lateral, distal/proximal, superficial/deep, blah, blah, blah!) is super exciting to me!~ Geek? Maybe... And, I LOVE IT!!!

2010 - A Year of Transformation

Massage Therapy School Orientation at The Cortiva Institute-Chicago was today. I received approximately 50 pounds of text books!!! I'm actually very excited to be a student again... Ah, sharpening the saw, it's been 17 years since I've 'officially' been a student. So...the journey begins. This year, for me, is officially 'A Year of Transformation'.

And, on the Doula side, I am on-call for three 12-hour shifts at Swedish Covenant Hospital this month... So, hopefully, I will be privileged enough to attend a birth this month too. :)
