ABOUT PATRICIA

 


Instructor Patricia Gale has been practicing Massage Therapy since 1993. Her training with Kalena Babeshoff at the Foundation for Healthy Living in Sonoma, CA, earned her certification as an Instructor of Infant Massage.

 

 

Previously, she trained at the World School in San Francisco, CA in the program "Babies in Motion."  To complete Holistic Health Counseling Certification, Patricia delivered a paper about the importance of the birth experience in the design of a human life.

My Highest Purpose: 

To make things workable, connect people and resources for happy, effective and powerful results.

 

My Vision: 

All children are recognized for their being and are respected and loved from infancy on.  Within the next two years,15 thriving classes per week of infant massage are being taught under my auspices in Santa Rosa.

 

My Mission:  

Being an effective advocate for:

1) The conscious awareness of all children from birth on.

2) Children being loved, cared for and appreciated wherever they are in the world.

3) The recognition, support and respect of each child’s creative contribution to global culture.

 

My Legacy: 

Infant and family massage (touch communication) is a respected and integral part of parenting culture in the U.S. and in the world.

are not fantastic or grand.

 They are the moments when we touch one another."
