A New Viewpoint: Introducing Ken McCain
An energy specialist on helping women find self-love & harmony
Hi. My name is Ken.
I’m honored and grateful to be a contributor to WOMAN. I was asked to be a WOMAN contributor and contribute to women’s lives because I have a passion.
A passion and intention to bring positive energy to helping women achieve greater state of wellness.
I believe this can be gained by helping you achieve a greater sense of Balance, Harmony and Self through my knowledge and personal and professional experiences so you can take the steps necessary in creating a better life for you.
The following is a brief introduction of myself and proof of what can be created through positive intention, hard work and determination.
Why I’m qualified to help you, professionally
I attended the National Holistic Institute College of Massage Therapy where I graduated with Honors and Letter of Excellence as a Massage Therapist and Health Educator. I am a California State Certified Massage Therapist, Professional Member of the American Massage Therapy Association, certified Prenatal Massage Therapist, a Reiki Master/teacher and a member of the Reiki Membership Association.
Before graduating from NHI, I performed approximately 100 hours of volunteer sports massage at 18 Bay Area sporting events where I had the privilege of meeting some fantastic individuals striving to become the best they can be.
Why I’m qualified to help, as an individual
Native to the Bay Area, I’m a devoted husband and father of two daughters. Wanting to contribute and maintain my own wellness, I’ve refereed my daughter’s soccer games, served as a docent for the Hall’s Valley Astronomy Group, and currently volunteer at my daughter’s parent participation school. An avid mountain bicyclist and backpack leader for the Sierra Club, my interest in anatomy and physiology started as student athlete in high school.
Not only do I have a keen interest and experience in sports massage, sports injury rehabilitation and therapeutic massage for pain management, I’m also a Reiki Master/Teacher and intuitive or Indigo with a desire to help others.
As a body and energy worker, I have helped amateur women athletes reach professional level in their field of competition. I have assisted business women and working moms in creating solutions to reach their greatest potential by managing physical and mental stress, fatigue, range of motion issues, chronic pain, sports injuries or low self esteem just to name a few.
And now, for you…
As you awoke this morning, what was on your mind? How good you did you feel between the covers? Did you make time to get a quick bite to eat before you join the other commuters in traffic getting to work to execute your plans to meet your daily, weekly and monthly goals?
Get up, go. This scenario probably repeats like clockwork. That’s a problem, if once you begin your 8, 10 or perhaps 12 hour work day, you lose sight of the most important person. That person is YOU. This is common with women, who take care of others.
When you lose sight of yourself, you move away from wellness.
It’s possible you then allow yourself to make the choices for your mind and body that aren’t the best.
Not making the best choices means that you are depriving yourself the best life you can have.
Since we only have one life to live that is significant and should not be ignored. This is especially important for women who historically have not had the opportunities men have in this world for one reason or another.
The consequences can be endless.
Being out of wellness may lead to lethargy, hormonal imbalance, tight muscles, low self esteem, insomnia, poor circulation of blood and lymph fluid, sore joints just to name a few.
Conversely, maintaining a higher state of wellness may contribute to better circulation, increase quality of sleep, stable hormonal levels contributing to higher self esteem, more enjoyable sex drive and a greater love for yourself and others around you. Women with higher states of wellness also generally maintain a greater awareness of personal goals that help sustain better health.
As a contributor to WOMAN, I plan to offer valuable information from my own experiences and share what I have read or viewed that generates that lightbulb moment in my head which may or may not help you find and maintain a greater sense of Balance, Harmony and Self as I continue my journey in becoming the best body and energy worker I can become.
Today, I have a greater appreciation and passion to empower women to help improve their lives by giving women the opportunity to connect with their body’s during their massage or Reiki session. This in turn helps me become a better human.
Love and Light,
Ken
