The Journey of the Esoteric Breast Massage

An Esoteric Breast Massage (EBM) session lasts just under an hour in time, but in experience it often feels like a long journey has been taken, and the difference between how the body feels at the beginning of the massage, and how it feels at the end is worlds apart.
Before an EBM, in fact from the time the booking is made for the session, the body commences the journey.  The journey might be subtle, or it may be obvious.  What the journey is, is not known, and cannot be predicted. It is different for each and every woman. It won’t ever look a particular way even for one woman, for example if two EBM’s are planned the lead up to each might look or feel completely different. There is no predicting what the journey might be, and sometimes it may not feel prior to the session that anything has changed, but suffice to say, there is much preparation underway. 
 
At the beginning of the EBM session a short conversation with the practitioner may reveal the theme of the session (although no intention is given to this being needed). Every session is different, no matter how many EBMs are experienced. During the pre-talk a theme may appear, perhaps around self-worth, or raciness during the day, or even a numbness in life. The theme is particular to that woman and that session.
 
Once the session commences there can be a very physical awareness of the body. The practitioner will work on different areas of the body through the session, including the arms, the heart, the décolletage, and the breasts. For some the tender touch of a practitioner simply in the holding of the wrist while the arms are placed on the massage table is transformative.
Many women have commented that the tender touch of an EBM changes everything for them. They are aware that nothing is being asked of them, no judgments are present, there are no expectations of right or wrong, and there is a complete acceptance of the woman as the being she is.
During the session the journey will be different for everyone, but it is in fact a journey (with no destination). A woman may be aware of the movements of the hands on the body, of the warmth of the room and massage cream, of the quietness and stillness of the practitioner.  She may be aware of the physical sensation of the massage, and the opportunity to surrender into being cared for with nothing for her to do, and no expectations of her. All range of feelings may be had from tiredness or sadness, to numbness or anxiousness, to deep relaxation or ease.
 
Regardless of the journey of the session, the physical sensations and the emotional paths, at the end of the session, when the time is complete there is commonly a realisation that something extraordinarily profound has occurred.  It seems to belie what occurred during the session, and is in many ways alchemic. How can a simple massage offer such a transformation? Such is the way of the Esoteric Breast Massage modality that it offers each woman, in each session, an opportunity for her own healing and development in a manner that words can often not describe. It is a unique experience where the destination need not be known, but without doubt there will be a journey that leaves the woman knowing more of herself, her beauty and exquisiteness and what her particular way is, for each woman is unique and holds the quality of an essence that is particularly hers, while being equal and without comparison to others.
