There is a distinct difference between "resting" and truly resetting. ✨

As we step away from summer and headlong into a busy autumn, most of us try to decompress by checking out mentally. But true, lasting relief doesn’t happen just by distracting our minds—it happens when we allow our bodies to change their literal frequency.
When you step into our Saturday morning sanctuary at Vigor Strength Studio, the world’s clock stops outside the door.

Your Nervous System Reset groups are designed to meet you exactly where you are. Lying fully clothed and supported on our professional massage tables—set up simply with a clean sheet and a comfortable face cradle—your body is given permission to drop its defenses. Through targeted, gentle Bowenwork and a shared space of community healing, we quietly guide your nervous system away from frantic, everyday static and back into its natural, deep rhythm.

No performance. No expectations. Just a table waiting for you to completely ground down.

📌 When: Every Saturday | 9:00 AM
📍 Where: Vigor Strength Studio (645 Main Street, Gorham)
🎟️ Investment: $40 per person

👇 How to Save Your Table:
Spaces are strictly capped at 10 tables per session to preserve an intimate, restful energy. To lock in your spot (or reserve a second table for a friend who needs a reset), text Sharon Little directly at 207-615-5380 with your name and your preferred Saturday time.

True healing and growth thrive when we don't do it alone. If you know someone whose battery is running completely on empty, reserve two tables and bring them into this community practice with you. See you on the table this Saturday! ✨

STRONG BODIES NEED RECOVERY, TOO.

We spend so much time taking care of everything and everyone else that we forget something important:

Your nervous system needs care, too.

When life keeps you in “go, go, go” mode, your body can have a hard time finding its way back to calm.

That’s why I created Your Nervous System Reset.

A small-group Saturday morning experience where we slow down, regulate, breathe, reconnect with the body and use gentle Bowenwork to support relaxation and nervous system balance.

And you don't have to do it alone.

Friends don’t let friends struggle alone.

We meet at **Vigor Strength Studio, 645 Main Street in Gorham**, because strength isn't just about how much weight you can lift.

Strong bodies need recovery, too.

9:00 AM Saturdays
60 minutes
10 people maximum
$40/session

If you’ve been saying, “I just need to slow down,” maybe it’s time to actually give your nervous system the reset it’s been asking for.

**Bring a friend. Your nervous system will thank you.**

How wonderful to have this study!!
‐-----

What a wonderful way to start the new academic year by sharing a new piece of research: a randomised controlled trial by Chen et al. (2025) exploring the effectiveness of Bowen Therapy for fibromyalgia.

The objective was to determine whether Bowen therapy can help alleviate pain, enhance functional capacity, reduce sleep and mood disturbances, and improve overall quality of life.

The study followed 78 participants split into two groups: one receiving eight sessions of Bowen therapy over 12 weeks alongside conventional care, and a control group continuing conventional care alone.

Positive Highlights & Percentage Changes
Lower Limb Endurance: An approximate 66.7% increase in successful stands from a baseline mean of 6 to 10 post-treatment, with benefits sustained for 12 weeks.

Dominant Arm Endurance: An approximate 54.5% increase in successful arm curls from a baseline mean of 11 to 17 post-treatment.

Non-Dominant Arm Endurance: An approximate 40.0% increase in successful curls from a baseline mean of 10 to 14 post-treatment.

Reduced Activity Interference: An approximate 17.5% reduction on the Brief Pain Inventory interference scale, dropping from a baseline mean of 5.7 to 4.7.

Mental Health-Related Quality of Life: An approximate 15.9% improvement in SF-36 Mental Component Summary scores, rising from a baseline mean of 33.3 to 38.6.

Safety: No serious adverse events or safety concerns were reported.

It is encouraging to see greater insight into how bodywork supports those navigating chronic conditions. We would love to hear from you if this was relevant for you.

WHO DO YOU LEAN ON?

You’re the strong one.

The one everyone calls when they need something.
The one who keeps things moving.
The one who holds everyone else together.

But what happens when you’re running on empty?

Who do *you* lean on?

You weren’t meant to carry everyone else while ignoring what your own nervous system is trying to tell you.

Sometimes healing starts with something very simple:

**Pause. Breathe. Receive.**

That’s what we’re creating in my **Saturday Your Nervous System Reset Group**.

A small group.
A safe space.
60 minutes to step out of doing and into receiving.

We begin with nervous system regulation, followed by **group Bowenwork** to help your body shift out of the constant “hold it all together” mode.

**Saturdays • 9 AM • $40**
60 minutes • Small group • 10 people max

Meet me at Vigor Strength Studio
645 Main St, Gorham
Open to everyone you don't need to be a member at the gym.

🧡 Friends don’t let friends struggle alone. We build a community, so bring someone who is always the strong one.

And if a group setting isn’t your thing, I also offer **private sessions** for those who want more individualized support with nervous system regulation, Bowenwork, and holistic body-based healing.

You take care of everyone else.
It’s okay to let someone take care of you.

Message me to reserve your Saturday spot or schedule a private session.

YOUR BODY HEARS WHAT YOUR MIND IS SAYING.

We talk about stress like it’s just part of life.

“I’m fine.”
“I just have a lot going on.”
“I’ll deal with it later.”

But chronic stress isn’t simply something you 'feel'.

Your nervous system responds to it.
Your hormones respond to it.
Your immune system responds to it.
Your body keeps the score.

Research continues to show that long-term stress can disrupt the body’s normal processes and contribute to inflammation, immune dysregulation and a higher risk of health problems. There is also growing evidence connecting chronic stress with autoimmune conditions.

And here’s the part I want you to hear:

You may not be responsible for everything that happens to you—but you are responsible for how you care for yourself through it.

Your mental health matters.
Your physical health matters.
Your nervous system matters.

You don't have to wait until your body is screaming at you to start listening.

That’s why I created my Saturday morning 'Your Nervous System Reset Group'.

We spend time helping your body shift out of that constant “go, go, go” state and into a place where regulation, rest and recovery are possible.

**Saturday mornings • 9 AM**
**60 minutes • $40**
Small group • Maximum 10 people

Where: Meet me at Vigor Strength Studio

And this is not something you have to do alone.

**BRING A FRIEND.**

Because sometimes the person who looks like they have it all together is the one running on empty.

Friends don’t let friends struggle alone. 🤗🤗

If your nervous system has been carrying too much for too long, maybe Saturday is your time to reset.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO STAY WHERE YOUR BODY LEARNED TO BE STRESSED.

Sometimes the hardest part of healing is realizing that your nervous system may still be living in an old environment—even after the situation has changed.

You can leave the job.
Leave the relationship.
Set the boundary.
Change the pattern.

But your body may still be carrying the stress in the fascia layer.

That’s why healing isn’t just about “moving on.”

It’s about teaching your nervous system that **it is safe to come out of survival mode.**

That’s what we work with in Your Nervous System Reset—using gentle Bowenwork and nervous-system regulation to help your body shift from tension and protection toward rest and regulation.

**Saturday mornings • 9 AM**
60-minute group session
**$40 per session**
Limited to 10 people

You don’t have to keep carrying the stress of a place, person, job, or chapter you’ve already left.

**Your body deserves to know that chapter is over, too.**

Message me if you’re ready to give your nervous system a reset. Text 207-615-5380 to RSVP

**ARE YOU BURNT OUT… OR ARE YOU JUST DONE LIVING IN SURVIVAL MODE?**

Sometimes burnout isn't about your job.

It's the job **plus** the relationship.
The responsibilities.
The constant decision-making.
Taking care of everyone else.
Being strong when you really needed support.
Holding everything together while quietly falling apart inside.

Eventually, your nervous system says:

**“I can't keep doing this.”**

You may feel exhausted even after sleeping.

You may become more irritable, anxious, emotional, disconnected or overwhelmed.

You may crave quiet but feel guilty for taking it.

You may not even recognize yourself anymore.

That's where recovery begins.

Not by pushing harder.

Not by adding another thing to your already overflowing to-do list.

But by teaching your body that it is finally safe to **slow down, breathe, release and recover.**

That's exactly what we're working with in my **Nervous System Reset Group.**

A small group.
60 minutes.
A combination of nervous system regulation and gentle Bowenwork designed to help your body shift out of constant “go mode.”

Because sometimes you don't need another strategy for managing your life.

**You need a body that isn't fighting to survive it.**

If you're burned out from work, career, relationships, caregiving, change—or simply years of being the strong one—

this group was created for you.

**Saturday mornings • 9:00 AM**
**10 max • $40/session**

Location: Vigor Strength Studio
645 Main St, Gorham

Come reset.
Come breathe.
Come let your body do some of the work.

**Your life may be demanding. Your nervous system doesn't have to pay the entire bill.**

Text 207-615-5380 to reserve your spot.... And bring a friend! Friends don't let friends struggle.
