There are certain people that come into your lives and begin to occupy “space”… In the most positive of manners, Marie Vic, our Filipino massage therapist, is now a weekly feature and even the kids have begun to relish the idea of a short massage before bedtime. As part of her upbringing and “healer” philosophy, Marie Vic refuses to be paid for massaging the kids (it all began when she said that a massage could help them get through a winter cold a few months back). We should all be so lucky to have such a person in our family lives. (Plus it was her birthday yesterday).
Massage… message

It’s always good to hear from you Minter, even more «bumping into you in Vegas» last January. My first massage experience is a powerfull one, performed by a man and a woman, male energy at the feet (grounding) female energy at the head (inspiration). Meditation by each one at the end of the 90 minutes massage. I litterally had a fre falling feeling by which I was «integrating» my body, being embodied. Since then, 17 years ago, I get a massage as often as possible… My challenge is to make time for myself, but I gues it is the one we human are facing every instant… Love & Aloha,

Did it cure the common cold? Because if it did, she might as well patent it then retire and buy herself that dream … whatever she wants!
