Today’s lesson is on giving a great massage to your signficant other, a massage is a good way to get to their heart. This lesson comes from IVillage and the full information can be found at :http://love.ivillage.com/slideshow/love/simple_manmelting_massage_techniques/?nlcid=ls|12-17-2009|

First begin your massage strokes slowly on the back, a hand on either side of the spine. Lean weight into hands as they move downward continuing to the base of spine. Move hands to the pelvic and hip bone area, make circles at the hips. Bring along ribs to shoulders, let your hands cup
the bones. Let fingers trace the muscles,lift tissue gently and follow curve of neck to head. Make small circles with fingers along scalp.
Repeat stroke explained above a few times along the back. Use oil on back to allow a better massage but not so much that its slippery. Alternate hands as you move them down, shifting weight to each hand. This creates a variation of pressure. Move down the arms giving them squezzes as you move to fingertips.
Always make sure you complete the movement with firm contact, this massage is meant to be slow and sensual. Finish by moving to head, repeating small circles all over scalp. Move over the head and gently pull at the roots,combing the fingers through the hair.Try this out on your loved one and I would love to hear feedback if this works and how they liked it.

Today is a sad day at least for me and my friends it is. Our favorite and only town cafe closed its doors tonight. Tommarow will be our first Tuesday not meeting there. Red Sky Cafe in Stockbridge is a cherished place in town that will be missed by alot of people.
l it closed a year ago. They were a great place too but closed to the economy. That an Red Sky was a better cafe and drew in the people to their business.
