How my journey has grown my vision
Sacred Fire Massage Therapy and Healing retreat was born out of my vision to create a safe supportive space to receive massage therapy with a specific focus on supporting women. Although I treat everyone regardless of gender, gender orientation or age, my vision evolved as I saw a need based on my experience as a woman traversing the chapters of my own life. Out of these experiences, I noted gaps in care and support for women of all ages. Particularly the times of transition such as adolescence, motherhood and menopause. For myself, now as I slowly cross that bridge between childbearing years and menopause I have had much lived experience which has taught me empathy and compassion for the particularities that I have been through. Amidst this, the strong need for post-partum support as well as support for those going through the tumultuous waves of perimenopause. These days, women are wearing a lot of hats and it is easy to become forget to replenish oneself. Traditionally, woman were "the keepers of the hearth". Out of this idea, I have come to the vision of Sacred Fire.
Sacred Fire
The keepers of the flame
The name Sacred Fire is born out of what I know about my own Celtic ancestry. In ancient Ireland, there was a triple Goddess named Brigid who was the goddess of Fire,Inspiration and Poetry. Brigid was well known as a force of healing in ancient Ireland and many wells were associated with her. As many triple aspect godesses, she wore the face of the Mother, the Maiden and the Crone. When Ireland was later Christianized, the deity of Brigid was made into a saint. Her abbey in Kildare Ireland was unique in that there is a sacred flame which is tended by the nuns and not allowed to go out. The ancient Celts also tended a sacred fire in there culture, that was not allowed to go out. To me, it feels appropriate to connect back to that vision of the sacred fire. To allow oneself to be supported and nurtured through all the aspects of our journey. It is in this spirit with my training and experience as a Registered Massage Therapist that I am glad to hold space.
