With Clarity and Intention: Welcoming 2026 Together


January Newsletter 2026


Happy New Year, everyone!


Here we are 2026. And when I look at that, I can’t help but reflect on how much we’ve all overcome. No matter where you are in life, you can look back at the last year, the last decade, or even the last twenty years and see proof that you are enough and that you can continue to grow and excel.


This time of year, we often talk about goals, intentions, or resolutions.


And it reminded me of a a movie I watched called The Longest Game, and the coach shared a simple but powerful idea: life is like golf. You aim for a flag. Once you reach it, you choose the next one.


So what’s your flag this year? What are you aiming for? It could be a long-term goal, something new, or simply showing up more consistently.


The key is awareness. Taking a mental note of your goal regularly and aiming toward it even in small ways adds up. That progress becomes the “bread of life”: your gifts, your strengths, your ability to overcome. It nourishes you and influences those around you.


For me, my flags are clear. Family always comes first, supporting my son through every stage of his growth. Supporting my team is another priority, (including upgrading our massage therapy tables, yay) and continuing to improve your experience here.


Thank you for being part of this community. Your health and wellness is my flag and my purpose.


This work is my calling, and I’m grateful to walk alongside you. Here’s to a grounded, intentional 2026


Lots of Love and Light,



With appreciation,

Linda


PS here’s your affirmation for the month:

Each day, I consciously choose to aim toward my next flag with clarity, intention, and steady focus.
