I love when the elements manifest themselves physically as the cycle of the year turns onward. It can rain at any time in the autumn, but once it’s cold enough outside, snow can accumulate and cover up the world’s colour in a blank whiteness. Incidentally, white is the colour associated with the metal element, which rules this season.
As the snow accumulates and the year reaches its darkest point, we move from autumn into winter. Where metal is precise and analytical, water is a bit messier and prone to emotion over logic. I’ll be doing a lot more reflecting on that as winter settles in for good, but I want to remember an important thought about the solstice: I can feel the days getting longer as soon as it passes. This makes me feel more optimistic even as conditions outside may be more frigid.
The holiday season is a big and exciting time for many of us! I wish you all the comfort of loved ones and good company, the joy of nourishing and celebratory meals, and a peaceful close to the year as we look to the future. I will be offering a unique one-time 50% promo code for each new booking between now and the end of the month, to be used at any time in 2025. Codes will be sent by email after the session takes place, and I’ll do my best to pre-schedule these messages to land in your inbox before you leave my massage room.
My fees will be increasing by $10 effective January 1st, 2025; if you book your January or February session before then, you will benefit from my 2024 rates. I will also be offering a $10 discount for sessions paid by cash, e-transfer, or direct billing. My PINKPURPLE discount remains unchanged: 40% off for clients who are BIPOC, queer, fat, or neurominoric.
My plans have changed slightly since my last newsletter, so please be advised that I will be out of office the following dates (inclusive):
- December 10th-12th
- December 23rd
- December 25th-26th
- December 31st-January 1st
Take care and stay warm!
