Good Flow Wellness

Top of the morning!🌞
I cut this quote out of a newspaper & stuck it on my motivation binder 15-20 years ago because it resonated w/my spirit.

Today I still grapple w/the mechanics. It has gotten easier w/the age-adjacent wisdom adults SHOULD acquire as the years progress. Times when stark clarity separates the meaningful from the meaningless.

Remembering those words as a call to arms in tumultuous times w/a hopeful, joyful heart while searching for comrades & recruiting others is how I know humanity, probably, has a good shot.😀

After 25 years of massage practice, it has become clear to me that positive + healthy touch IS a conduit for connection with
body & mind/
self & others/
and a healthy, high-functioning society.


Although we have more devices to stay connected, we(at least in the USA) are lonelier, more disgruntled, & more depressed.

Connection through touch allows us humans to strengthen bonds. With stronger bonds there are stronger communities leading to a .

I used to H8 hearing & considered those ppl self-centered takers. People who couldn’t live without the tools, equipment, plumbing, food, electricity, etc provided by others yet turned their noses up at our humanity.
Until humility & compassion kicked in & I wanted to understand their isolation.
Since I’ve been hurt by people PHYSICALLY as well as all the other ways, I mostly understood.
And I’ve also spent too long licking my wounds & not showing up at times.

The reality is what doesn’t kill us doesn’t always make us stronger. It can warp brains and destroy lives. Traumatic events often rewire the brain in ways that help us survive, NOT thrive, leaving us stuck in a purgatory like loop. Those trapped can have REACTIONARY ways of dealing with life like rage, overreacting, panic attacks, lashing out, etc. Overcoming the brains rapid response involves starting in an environment that is safe & stable in order to begin the process of learning nervous system regulation*.

Sooo…for all the people who have given up on humanity, please give ppl grace because you don’t know what challenges or devastation someone has been/is going through. Allow humility to remind you of times you may have hurt someone or not lived up to your ideals. In order to live in a better world, we must take the 1st step.

Many sleepless nights and tears were shed getting to this point. Most notably, 3 afternoons ago sobbing during repeated listenings of ‘Home’ & ‘Believe In Yourself’, from The Wiz and ‘ I Hope I Get It’ from A Chorus Line followed by a nap then an all-nighter.😜

Hi 👋!
I’m Trina, the owner of GFW. Many people call me everyday due to the business ‘HEALTHY FLOW’ using my business number as their contact # for selling supplements.

Although you all seem to be receiving the supplements you requested(?), using someone else’s business number reeks of scamming. I find it disappointing & appalling to scam anyone, let alone seniors.

Please use the resources I have provided to take care of this issue ASAP. Your local library(hopefully) is also a wealth of information.

Thank you for the information to share and the ongoing classes. And thanks for hosting these necessary & informative classes !

Good luck/prayers/karma! I wish all of you the best!
