Mend Bodyworks

Cleanliness Is Close to Godliness — or So We Were Told.

But maybe that’s the lie.
We scrub, bleach, and sterilize everything in sight — our homes, our hands, our air — and call it holy.
Meanwhile, the planet chokes on our obsession with “clean.”

Plastic bottles, toxic sprays, artificial scents…
We’ve mistaken purity for perfection and care for control.

“Cleanliness is next to godliness” once meant inner order — a clear mind, a reverent space.
Now it’s the slogan of an industry wrecking the biosphere.

Maybe the real teaching should be:
Cleanliness without consciousness is godlessness.

I’m refining my practice to focus on private sessions and teaching. My approach requires deep presence and strong boundaries. Out of respect for both therapist and client, I no longer offer open-ended talk therapy during bodywork, and I won’t be booking public sessions.

If we still have packages. I will still honor those. I know I told some of you I couldn’t. But I want to honor those and tab out with you all ASAP.
