The Drumroll Begins.....................
Sue and I took a drive down to Hawthorne on Monday to check things out, We were both soooo excited when we parked across the street and looked up, I never dreamed that a portapotty would make me smile but this one did, because it means the work has really begun and people will be there everyday doing what they do best and getting our space ready.
The ceiling was down and most of the walls as well and even though it still smelled like the fire and the dust was quite thick, we stood there and just enjoyed the moment.
As hard as this all has been, for the first time we envisioned our Barefoot Sage with busy managers, nurturing lmt's and amazing clients sitting on our new purple couches in our new space filled with new dreams and giving thanks that no one was hurt and that we can come back as a family.
As Holidays approach, we want to say THANK YOU! to all of you who continue to support us with your kind words of encouragement, your concern and your faith knowing that we are coming back.
Until the next time,
Adios,
Cuqui

We have been busy behind the scenes alongside our managers to stay on track with everything and anything that needs to be ready so that when demolition, cleaning, rebuild and remodel are done we can get in and get The Barefoot Sage ready for YOU, our family of loyal clients to be welcomed, nurtured, pampered and THANKED for your continuous support specially during this time.

Our Team is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GIVE THANKS FOR UNKNOWN BLESSINGS ALREADY ON THEIR WAY.
Native American WisdomAs we sat around the table last night celebrating Sam's birthday (one of our therapists), I looked around and realized that blessings are always there for us to find, in this case the fact that The Barefoot Sage will reopen with such wonderful caring, nurturing and supportive crew is definitely a BLESSING.
We are under the understanding that after six weeks of waiting a contractor has been hired to start the demolition process soon, I start feeling the excitement of what's to come and how fantastic it will be to bring our family together to do what they do best, care nurture and support YOU, our clients.
My hope is that once the demolition is done,and the rebuild process begins I will be writting in this blog every day with updates and news.
We will always be very grateful for your continuing support.
Always,
Cuqui and Sue

Hello All,
Days from Thanksgiving... and 5 weeks out from the fire. This holiday will be bitter sweet for myself, and Sue (Co-Owner of The Barefoot Sage). We count ourselves fortunate this season, despite the fire, and the temporary closure of our business, and we are still very thankful. Thankful that the fire happened in the wee hours of the morning, leaving the building empty of people. Thankful to have a strong and solid following of employees, clients and friends . Many of whom have shared with us their sympathies, and offered to help in any way they could. These are the things that make life full, and worth living.
We feel very hopeful that December will finally, begin to see activity starting at the spa. With that in mind, we continue to have online Gift Certificates available for purchase. Give the gift of The Barefoot Sage to someone special this holiday season. They will have an opportunity to experience not only the fantastic foot massage, we are sure they will receive, but also to enjoy it in our remodeled and fresh new space.
We wish you all a happy and safe holiday season, and look forward to seeing you and your loved ones in early 2010!!

Hurry up............and wait.
Hi Everyone!
It's been exactly 3 weeks tomorrow since the fire, and as my title says we're: Hurrying up to wait. Wow!! This is such a slow and tedious process. Everyday we seem to move a mere inch the direction we want, and a foot backwards, all at the same time. We are hopefully getting very close to getting some final answers on important questions.....
Behind the scenes however, the pace is picking up and staying steady. We are working hard to get our inventories done and the re-model plans solidified so when the time comes we can jump right in and get the show on the road!! Purple couches here we come!!
So, keep your chins up, sit back close your eyes and envision the amazing foot massage you'll be getting in (hopefully) a few short months!

On October 17th we at The Barefoot Sage found ourselves trying to make sense of what had happened. Our worlds of normal were no longer, our home away from home was devastated in a fire. As the days pass and our hearts begin to heal, our minds slow down a bit, we realize how desperately we want "our normal" back. That, will be the driving force for us to wake up every morning and step by step begin to build the bridge to what will be OUR new normal.
Sue and I have an incredible team, you are a gift. We are amazed by our loyal clients, you are all a gift. Our families that love and support us, you are a gift. We are both so blessed to have all of you be part of our lives and know that your thoughts and blessings will be with us as we embark on the reinvention of OUR new Barefoot Sage.
I will be steadfast in relaying our progress, for now we both will try to remember these words every day.
Flow with whatever is happening and let your mind be free.
Stay centered by accepting whatever you are doing.
This is the ultimate.
