Top Reasons to Get a Massage

Blog· Entertainment

Owning your own business is both extremely satisfying and also very stressful at times. You learn to take the good with the bad and keep moving forward no matter what. I’ve learned that if I don’t take the time to take care of myself, I go in a downward slope. I start stressing out, my anxiety levels shoot straight up and I become very irritable.

To be honest, most of my excuses are “I don’t have time” or “I am too busy today.” How many times have you caught yourself using that excuse? I didn’t realize how much I use that excuse but it must come to a stop. We all need to MAKE time to treat ourselves. Every one has 24 hours in a day, there is no reason not to spend an hour or two doing something that you want to do.

I put my foot down and went for a massage. As much as I love getting my nails and hair done, nothing is more relaxing than laying in a dark, quiet room while someone is massaging your back.  There are so many benefits to getting a massage, it’s crazy. Not that you NEED a reason to treat yourself, I’ve made a list of why reasons why you SHOULD go for a massage.

Massage Envy - RowlettI recently took the time to get a massage at Massage Envy. It didn’t take anytime for me to feel relaxed. Upon entering, I filled out 2 sheets of paper than took less than a few minutes. The paperwork asked generic questions such as medical history and if there were any areas of concern for your massage. Within minutes, I was taken back with my therapist into my massage room. The room was dark and cozy. The therapist quickly went over the paperwork that I filled out and asked a few questions regarding my massage.

My 50 minute Swedish massage was exactly what I needed. It was not only great for my back (which had been bothering me all week) but it was 50 minutes that I was able to spend doing nothing. It was a time that I could relax and not feel stressed that I’m making my deadline and a time that I could clear my mind and do nothing. The peace and serenity felt after a massage is priceless which is why I’m urging you all to take the time and pamper yourself! You deserve it!

If you feel like paying it forward, check out the Healing Hands for Arthritis Event held at Massage Envy on September 17th. $10 from every massage on that day will be donated to the arthritis foundation.

    I never had a professional massage. However, if I win, I would rather give this opportunity to my Dad. He needs it more than me.

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW.

I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
