In the middle of the night I awoke to a bright light in my face. I thought that someone was on the roof and trying to break in. In our bedroom, there is a small window and when I looked through it to see what was going on. There, something truly beautiful caught my attention. It was O' Bella Luna herself. Big, radiant and full of life. Having no idea of the time, I woke my husband up to share this breath taken sight. I felt bad because he WAS in a deep, peaceful sleep, but couldn't help myself. Together we lie there for about ten minutes in each others arms and thanked our creator for waking us up to view on of his many many gifts!

Monday Night Zumba

Last nights Zumba class was full of high energy, vocalization and the rhythm. The rhythm swept me away into my own little world. Miss Hope is amazing and her spirit is bright!

Found a new way to tie my coin skirt so it doesn't fall down to my knees. Ha, ha, ha... The massage sessions before and after Zumba has benefited my body even more than anticipated. Not only am I able to last the full 60 minutes, but there has been a decrease in the FM and my cardio has improved.

Picking up another class on Thursday and Saturday. I love it! I'm addicted! Going back to your basics is ever so sweet!"

Did You Know?

That a 1 hour massage given by the Massage Practitioner is considered 4 hours of labored work on their bodies due to the high demand of performance, productivity, proper body mechanics, stamina, durability and hydration levels?

Random Thoughts

Hello Ladies,

I am extending the clothing swap for one more day due to the awesome success from yesterday!
10:00am - 5:00pm. This will not be a one time event. Through out the year (and I've already have next years events planned) I will be hosting a lot of cool and unique events for everyone. There is SO much to offer that this is going to take a long time to bring everything out to everyone. But, hey got the time cause I'm not going any where :-)

I see that Amanda Bridge has finally open her business! That's so cool to see former massage students to succeed like she has and is going to. I wish her the very best of luck in all she does!

So many therapists are afraid to extend the knowledge, fear of possible competition or even failing. This transition is something we all go through whether its a new job, family, location or going back to school. Welcome to the wonderful new world of "The Fear of The Unknown". There IS room for everyone! Luckily for me being a Day Spa. I really only have one possible competitor in town (the other Spa), but with the education and retail that makes my business truly unique! Actually, there IS nothing like The Enchanted Moment (that's how I designed her) around.

Donna, when is your Mini Triathlon? Congratulations on your recent weight loss. That's so cool!Well, hope you all have a great day and enjoy brother sun! It's Zumba thursday and can't wait. WOO HOO!!!

Myself, Zumba and Gold Coin Skirt OH MY!

I'm WAY to EXCITED to keep this to myself. About a month and a half ago I pre-registered Zumba classes with a fellow colleague, dear friend and an inspirational woman. My first class started Monday the 9th of March. Let's just say that I LOVE it sooooo much that I picked up another class and now doing Zumba twice a week. Tomorrow will be fourth class and can't wait.

Zumba is like an alternative drug to me. I'm surrounded by real women of all ages and sizes. The ENERGY from 105 women and our beautiful and very talented instructor is the ULTIMATE SPIRITUAL HIGH!

I order a gold coin skirt, not even knowing if it would fit...and it does. This skirt is the tool to perfect centering and core stabilization. Not to mention the added Adrenalin from the haunting sounds it makes when your core muscles are tight. LOVE IT.

So far I have lost 6.5lbs. For me, this is amazing! Real motivation, Real women, and just plain old raw primal movement! It doesn't get better than that. Going back to your basics is fantastic!!

Quote of the Day: Mr. Albert Einstein

March 14, 1879 - April 18, 1955


"The Most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who no longer can pause and to wonder, and stand rapt in awe, is good as dead; his eyes are closed"
