Like many people growing up, I viewed my health care needs in a very "reactive" manner, and mostly in terms of acute need. However, Adam and I welcomed a massage therapist named Jasmine to Life on Earth, and she discussed the importance of being proactive with health. She also broke down the importance of viewing wellness as less of a singular, event driven process, and more of an overall part of your life maintenance. This discussion went way beyond skeletal and muscular health, and dove in to the role massage therapy can play in mental health, spiritual health, as well as immune support. This is one of the conversations that changed how I look at the topic being discussed, in a deep and fundamental way. A complete re-understanding of total body wellness.
