Arrive with an open mind and a light stomach. We recommend eating a small meal 2–3 hours before your session and avoiding heavy or rich foods.
Choose something light and grounding — fruit, soup, oatmeal, or a simple snack. Avoid caffeine and alcohol, which can overstimulate the system.

Changes in blood flow and energy movement can create temporary heaviness or numbness. This is normal and resolves after the session.
