Course Description:
Truth is not always easy, nor is it always obvious. And in our practice of massage and bodywork, we often need to reflect in order to discover exactly what the truth of a situation is. Our professionalism requires that we embrace integrity with dignity, and that we know how to be honest with our clients without being hurtful. This class is designed to help you explore the meaning of integrity, to see more clearly how much integrity you already have, and to build on that core, developing and enhancing integrity in areas that might not be as strong as they could be.
