∞ I FEEL: The Whisper Before The Touch
Hover your hands one inch above the client’s back.
Feel warmth, breath, and the slow tide under your palms.
Wait until the tissue invites contact.
A micro-practice for massage therapists that develops sustainable wellbeing through awareness, training the same qualities we bring to touch.
How do I feel right now? (quiet, expectant, centered, patient, focused)
Where do I feel it? (abdomen, chest, arms, hands, jaw, feet)
What does it look like? (weight, pulse, flicker, temperature, color, texture)
What am I grateful for now? (hand on heart, longer exhale, stay in the question)
Use this: In session, ~90 seconds
Waiting refines contact and reduces effort.
These are weekly challenges as a way to practice the art of staying well while you give.
Somatic Mindfulness teaches massage therapists to turn self-care into a skill.
