I only made it to the festival on Saturday, but it was still an amazing experience. I lost count of how many people were brave enough to offer their feet for a massage, but each one reminded me how powerful and healing touch can be. I have always experienced massage as therapeutic for both the one receiving it and the one giving it. Touch seems to affirm the physical nature of who we are as human beings - and there is something about massaging feet which speaks in particular to our rootedness on the earth.
Massage makes a deep connection for me between the physical, emotional and spiritual sides of our being. Healing touch reminds me that we can, and do, experience the divine in our physical humanity – affirmed long ago by the divine human, Jesus. So, thank you to all who lent me their feet – I hope it helped to keep you going to the end of the festival.
