Stressed Out by the Pandemic, Social Upheave, Work and/or Childcare Anxiety, Financial Fears, Health Issues, Global Warming, Isolation Irritability, Loneliness, Relationship Stress, Lag in Creativity, Political Crisis & World-Wide Panic?
We All Need Moments of Relief, rest & renewal
A Rest & Renewal Session won't necessarily fix your problems,
but it will leave you better equipped to manage them and increase your equanimity along the way.
NOTE:
If you are impatient, and want to cut to the chase, you may scroll down to the big purple word "SESSIONS" to see whats offered!
Otherwise, read on...
We are currently living in a world and a time of intensity unlike anything most of us have experienced before. With many stressors bombarding us from every angle, some of us find ourselves living in ongoing panic-mode. Or perhaps to survive we go into denial and dissociation to survive. We may resort to addictive behavior, find ourselves unable to get out of bed, constantly furious or despairing, or we are so over worked and over tired we are unable to sleep. We may witness our behavior and find we are hurting self or others we care for, or that we are making decisions we later regret, all due to stress levels becoming unmanageable. Or we may be functioning well but simply feel worn out by all that is happening around us.

High Stress & Trauma
Our human body/heart/mind/spiritual systems are not designed to be flooded with adrenaline 24/7; A short burst of adrenaline can save our lives – if we are running from lions, navigating traffic in torrential rain storms or escaping falling objects. But living with ongoing, low or high level stress can take a toll on our well-being that may be difficult to recover from. Unrelenting stress can generate not only emotional issues and mental overwhelm, but can cause or make us more vulnerable to physical illness as well. A weakened immune system during a pandemic is the last thing we need.

About the Online rest & renewal Sessions:
Relaxation, Rest and Rejuvenation
The sessions listed below aim specifically to address the extraordinary need for rest and renewal that we are each experiencing at this time. Whether you book a Session here, or find your way to relief elsewhere, please give some deep consideration to concrete ways you can offer yourself some gentleness in these times; being less stressed won't necessarily fix your problems, but it will leave you healthier, happier and more resilient as you face them.
Chose what feels right for today, try something new next time, or book a series of sessions that appeal to you. No previous experience necessary for any of the sessions offered.
All Sessions are 50 minutes Long, conducted online, via Zoom (easy to download and use!)
https://zoom.us/download
(Some sessions can be conducted by phone. Contact MayaMassar@gmail.com to discuss.)
For your first session, please fill out the Rest & Renewal Questionnaire
(it will appear when you schedule a session) so Maya can offer you a personally tailored experience.
Before your session, you will receive preparation information, including materials you may need to purchase or gather, things to do to set up your space before the session, and inner preparation you can do to get the most out of your Rest & Renewal time.
Cost of Sessions:
We want EVERYONE who wishes to book a session to be able to do so, as often as needed.
Each month, we are able to offer a few lower-paying sessions to those in need, based on the number of full paying sessions booked. That is, the more of you who can pay the full amount, the more lower-paying sessions we can offer.
Please pay what you are able, and recognize that when you pay more, you are evening the playing field by making it possible for those who are less fortunate financially (at the moment) to receive the support they need!
