Yep. You just gotta do it now and again.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been hearing RAVE reviews about a new local spa and wellness center called Namaste\u2032 and last night I decided that I needed to check it out and treat myself to something.<\/p>\n<p>But before I tell you about the delicious ending to my week, let me tell you about those things that made it even more rewarding.<\/p>\n<p>I spent many days this week dodging raindrops and wishing for a reason to put on my sunglasses.<\/p>\n<p>A lack of sunshine always takes its toll on my psyche and my body.<\/p>\n<p>[Tweet theme=&#8221;basic-white&#8221;]But like Annie sings, &#8220;The sun will come out tomorrow,&#8221; and so one lovely tomorrow it did.[\/Tweet]<\/p>\n<p>I felt light as a feather following last weekend&#8217;s Master-Instructor level training.<\/p>\n<p>Until I crashed on Thursday and finally ended up taking a nap Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>I felt so depleted and drained.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, after I awoke from that slumber, I remembered something my Master-Instructor Integrated Energy Therapy trainer told us in class.<\/p>\n<p>She warned us that we would be returning to a societal norm of about a two-to-three hundred vibrational levels after spending the weekend in an environment that amplified the positive vibration to between five-and-six hundred.<\/p>\n<p>And so it was.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d been so busy playing catch-up after being away and then taking care of a few of Hubby&#8217;s usual house duties while he&#8217;s out of the country, I hadn&#8217;t taken the time to practice my daily self-energy therapy.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as my eyes opened Saturday morning I did a self-IET\u00ae treatment, followed by a meditation.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the weather&#8217;s pouring rains and howling winds,I felt so much better, Journeyer, freer and lighter and like the gloom had lifted from my soul.<\/p>\n<p>This foul outdoor climate forced my girlfriends and I to cancel a day trip to an outdoor market, though we did keep the night event fundraiser on our day&#8217;s agenda.<\/p>\n<p>I used that unexpected free time taking care of some new endeavors for The Five Facets of Healing, and I let the world know I have a few <a href=\"https:\/\/annahelizabeth.com\/services\/coaching\/\" target=\"_blank\">Life Coaching<\/a> openings to help our neighbors find resolution in conflict and grief, and that I am booking <a href=\"https:\/\/annahelizabeth.com\/services\/energy-therapy\/\" target=\"_blank\">Energy Therapy<\/a> sessions.<\/p>\n<p>And I not only took the time to visit Namaste&#8217;s website, I scheduled an appointment for myself.<\/p>\n<p>Journeyer, the experience was purely divine. I had my first ever facial with a super nice gal named Sarah. Honestly, my skin feels as fresh as a newborn&#8217;s cheek.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-10533 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/annahelizabeth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Namaste-events-spa-and-wellness-center-The-Five-Facets-of-Healing-Happy-Happens-image-2-300x300.png\" alt=\"Namaste events, spa and wellness center; The Five Facets of Healing Happy Happens image (2)\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The center also has an Infrared Light therapy sauna that I inquired about. Further feeding my happy was receiving a complimentary session as a first time customer.<\/p>\n<p>As someone who struggles with SAD (seasonal affective disorder), the light therapy and warmth completed the energy reset I began yesterday in my bed.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve never been one to take well to the heat, but I have to say, I was so overcome with comfort, peace, and fulfillment that the hotness didn&#8217;t bother me.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a spa in your area, I highly recommend taking some time for you or plan a girls&#8217; day out. Money is often tight for most of us, but I can honestly say that the experience is so worth every second and it truly does do the body and the mind good.<\/p>\n<p>Most businesses now carry gift certificates, so put it out there to your friends and family that you&#8217;d like a little personal treat.<\/p>\n<p>Other fleeting moments that fed my week&#8217;s happy included glorious fall breezes on the few mid morning walks I took myself and Patches on&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Cricket song&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Deck chimes&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Hosting a party and doing a little holiday shopping at The Christmas House, another favorite, local business&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>My enormous umbrella that helped keep some of the rain off me&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The soothing sounds of those falling raindrops&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Our warm floors that greeted my feet each morning&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Accomplishing many of my scheduled tasks and a few new ones&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Our wiggly, joyous pooch who greeted me even more enthusiastically each day during Warren&#8217;s absence&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Dinner and a movie with Big Guy&#8230;when our children leave the next, those hours together become even more precious&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Daily chats with Warren despite the twelve hour difference in our time zones!<\/p>\n<p>A girls&#8217; night out with four friends and attending a charity event where I met a few new people&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Reading a few articles from some of my favorite bloggers&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Managing to write a second post for our blog this week!

You make it possible for me to do what I love, to reach up and achieve my life purpose and to answer my calling.<\/p>\n<p>I have a few Life coaching openings and have time slots for your own energy reset via Integrated Energy Therapy or Reiki.<\/p>\n<p>The most beautiful things about these services is that they can all be done remotely, so don&#8217;t be deterred if we don&#8217;t live nearby one another. In this big vast universe, energy is everywhere, which means physical proximity is merely a label, not a deterrent.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to working with you in whatever capacity suits your needs! If you know someone in need of resolution from conflict and grief, I&#8217;d be honored to work with them, too.<\/p>\n<p>What about you, Journeyer, what moment(s) helped you bounce back after a drop in your energy?
