Sculpture of a left ear against concrete; it is made of vertical slices of curved material, giving the ear a vertically pixelated look

I recently had my sense of hearing (and balance!) thrown way out of whack. Naturally, I reflected on it as it happened. Important announcement on 2026 service rates in the post.

One of the body’s most interesting systems is just beneath the skin. I got a closer look last weekend at this tissue I am constantly sensing tension in. Promo reminder for August, and pet sitting dates.

I have started a personal meditation practice to see the benefits for myself, and will soon be able to offer meditation coaching as a new service.

(Re)starting stretching

A bald massage therapist in a dark top and shorts stretches with legs spread and their right arm and torso reaching toward their right foot. Behind and to the left is a shelving unit with towels, massage linens, a foam roller, and yoga blocks.

Restarting stretching is something I do often. I try to focus on the journey of increasing my flexibility. Also in the post, thanks for another great year, and an anniversay promo code.

Wuxing, five phases

July 20, 2025 by Lukas Rowland

Diagram of the Wuxing, with the Japanese kanji for Wood (green), Fire (red), Earth (yellow), Metal (grey), and Water (blue) in a circle with pink arrows linking them in clockwise order. A set of purple arrows forming a pentagram connect them in the middle, with a yin yang at the centre of the diagram

The wuxing describes five phases that energy moves through, that the year cycles through, and more. Read on for more about these elements of shiatsu, and a reminder about my PINKPURPLE discount.

Summer’s push and pull

Summer calls us to all sorts of fun activities, which can make it difficult to admit we might need rest. Read on for a podcast ep recommendation and reminder of my queer summer promo.
