Open Studio Invitation

Come and join us on May 24, Tuesday from 2-5 pm

Antje Roitzsch has joined the Wellness team at “Camden Whole Health” with her Phenomenal Touch™ massage practice “Healing Arts Maine”.

To introduce herself in the new space, she will offer free 15 min. sessions on Tuesday May 24 from 2-5.

P1060180Antje will add to the center her enthusiasm for helping clients build a relationship with their bodies that is rooted in love, respect, honor and trust.

Antje brings her ability and talent as a sculptor to the massage table, giving her the sensibility to touch and work the tissue of the body like clay. She listens with her hands in a three-dimensional, sculptural way.

“I love being the bridge for people to live in their body with greater joy.”

She is especially excited to join a team of wellness practitioners, where it will be possible to offer treatments that complement each other, giving clients support from different angles. For example, if a client is working on shedding old behavior patterns with a counselor, those patterns are also reflected in the muscle tissue of the body. Antje will support the client in releasing those old patterns and create spaciousness for new movements to emerge, giving the client a full mind body opportunity to change.

Besides the well-known benefits of massage, such as maintaining comfort & mobility and dissolving tension & stress, Antje offers support during life transitions. This also may include releasing old trauma, building trust, raising self-esteem, adjusting postural patterns or restoring the body after illness.

To reserve a special timeslot for the free 15 min. introduction call Antje at 542-4285 or check out her website for more information: HealingArtsMaine@wordpress.com

the importance of sleep

I think most people agree that sleep is important- but if we don’t get it, it might be all too easy to downplay it.  We will catch up later.  You can sleep when you are dead…. The things to do just can’t wait.

This interview with Arianna Huffington gives a lot of interesting insight on how important regular sleep really is.  Enjoy.

restoring adrenal balance

The Women to Women in Yarmouth approach to restoring adrenal balance:

Diet – The first and most important step to restore adrenal balance is following our dietary Guidelines:

  • What you eat counts! We recommended eating three meals and two snacks every day. Food has a very powerful impact on how you feel all the time, and can especially impact adrenal function
  • Reduce carbohydrate intake to 16 grams per meal and 7 grams per snack
  • Be sure to include protein at every meal and every snack
  • Eat within 30 minutes of waking which helps keep blood sugar stable
  • Eat healthy fats
  • Avoid gluten
  • Eliminate sugar

Stress – Don’t just talk about it, do something about it! Prolonged stress does affect us in many ways. It not only causes worry, but actually makes your body overproduce the stress hormone, cortisol. Cortisol has far reaching affects causing hormonal imbalance, thyroid dysregulation, sleep disruption, immune suppression, blood sugar dysregulation and weight gain to name a few of the many symptoms it can create. Take these steps to minimize stress:

  • Take 3 long deep breaths daily.
  • Take an “electronic sabbath” for an hour, a day, a weekend – no computers, no cell phones, and nothing work-related. Start with 30 minutes and see how far you can go!
  • Turn off electronics (including TV) one hour before bedtime.
  • Look at the demands in your life – is there something you can say ‘no’ to?
  • Do something just for you at least once per week. Read, journal, take a class or go for a walk!

The New Office

I have moved into my new office space.  I love it.

For the first time in my 15+ year massage courier have I arranged my own space. I always shared spaces that someone else had decorated.  Being fully represented with who I am is a good feeling and I am sure it will influence the experience of my clients.

Welcome to Healing Arts Maine

How do you live in your body?HA_logo_square

Is your body your friend?  Do you feel at ease, peaceful and at home? Or are you struggling
with self-image, with pain, or unfamiliar changes? Has illness made you feel betrayed or are you taxing your body to the max and don’t have time to pay attention? Is your body speaking to you, trying to raise your awareness to change behavior patterns?

I would like to help you develop an awareness of living in your body with joy; help you understand the story it is telling and generate love and acceptance you can achieve living in this beautiful temple of your soul; building a relationship that is rooted in love, respect, honor and trust.

We will work on the massage table listening to your body’s story, finding the space in tight areas; discovering how your muscles like to be stretched and moved and what feels nurturing and restful.

Wherever your individual goals lead you, I will hold the space and intuitively move with you, while staying grounded so you can surrender to your process.

I am looking forward to supporting you

Antje Roitzsch
