I agree with the statement about growing up with the feeling to take care of yourself would be selfish yet I agree with the saying that if you don't care for yourself, you can't take care of others. I just have had to sessions of Set Therapy and have loved it. My therapist from Minnesota, suggested your website to me and I haved enjoyed it immensely. Thank you Diane Spears from Minnesota.

Wow! This sentence really caught my attention. I am relatively new to the world of bodywork as a profession - and I find that now I am getting less care than when I was in the corporate world. I really appreciate the insights in this newsletter. I love doing CST because it allows both my client and myself to "go someplace else" than our daily concerns. My clients often ask me why I am so happy and I tell them that it is partly because I have vacations from my worries and concerns everyday. By being "present" for my clients, it is relaxing for me also while I work. BUT it is not the same as getting the work done for myself. Thanks for the reminder.
