Meet Our Newest Practitioners!
Andrew Pollak - Massage Therapy
Andrew began his career in massage therapy during the height of
his quarter-century existential inquiry. In his quest to evolve and
progress spiritually, he soon learned that intellectual divinity would
only take him so far and that deep healing in the physical and
emotional bodies is necessary throughout one's spiritual practice.
Indeed, we hold our issues in our tissues and talking about our
neuroses is like working away at an iceberg with but a pair of
disposable chopsticks.
Andrew specializes in Intuitive Relaxation Massage, Deep-Tissue
Therapy, Zen Shiatsu, Hot Stone, Cranio-Sacral Therapy, Trauma Work,
and Pre-Natal and Post-Partum Massage. He finds that despite his
extensive training, the true magic of massage happens the moment he
lets go of his agenda and expectations and simply allows the body to
show him what it wants to work on that session.
Andrew has also lived and worked in Japan, France and Canada, and
has found that his multicultural and multilingual foundations serve
him well to think outside the box and approach each situation
organically.
Andrew Pollak is a Certified and State-Registered Massage
Therapist who has also completed the Associate of Occupational Studies
(AOS) in Advanced Bodywork Studies at the Boulder College of Massage
Therapy. He has been in practice since March 2008. He is available
at the spa on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays.

October Astrology with Sylvia L. Wyant
 |
Well hold onto your hats Ladies and Gents, as the month of October will bring us lots of "opportunities for growth". Mercury turns direct on September 29th in Virgo - thus the rough month of technology nightmares - this then ushers in October with the full moon in Aires on Oct. 4-5th. Add this to Jupiter and Chiron moving direct in the sign of Aquarius (10/12 and 10/30, respectively), then mix in Saturn moving into Libra on the 29th, and we have got an interesting astrological cocktail to swallow.
Translated - Our communication efforts need to be balanced, yet strong in voicing our individual needs, particularly as it relates to how YOU intend to create a new life for yourself, in balance with the needs of your community. A life that not only heals you but brings your fellow man, woman and child along for the deal as well. Because with Saturn entering the sign of relatedness/relationship for the next 3 years - what does not serve the common good, will not serve you, and vice versa. So let yourself think outside the box to solve real issues - like finding what you value and valuing what you find - like really, really eating a healthy diet that keeps your body running at optimal speed. This IS the time to put your new health plan to work for you, your family and your community. Take time to care for your body/life, so your body is ready to care for others!

Eat well, Live well, Be well.
Sylvia L. Wyant began practicing astrology professionally over 15 years ago. She is also a practicing Body Psychotherapist and a faculty member of Regis University, School of Innovative Studies, MA department.

The Crystal Corner
The Mystery of Moonstone
The elemental guardian of Moonstone is Wind, associated with intuition and the goddess, which encourages one to pay attention to the cycles of life. Its crystal system is monoclinic and prismatic and was named after its blue-white sheen. It is found in Sri Lanka, Madagascar, Burma, Australia, India, and the United States. Varieties of Moonstone include: Cat's Eye Moonstone; Gray Moonstone; Peach Moonstone; White Moonstone and Rainbow Moonstone. My spotlight will be on Rainbow Moonstone.
Self-discovery is an important healing process to go through as well as learning to flow with the natural pace of Divine timing. Each cycle is a growth process and must be embraced before we move to the next level of wisdom. Moonstone can help sort through emotions so that a higher perspective of meaning and purpose is reached. Traditionally, Moonstone will tune one to the ebb and flow of the moon's energy. The pull of the moon is a proven fact thru the centuries of time by its recorded effect on all beings upon the planet Earth. The term 'lunatic' referred originally to someone believed to be 'moonstruck.'
Moonstone initiates the kundalini energy in females and awakens the right side of the brain, encouraging nonlinear thinking and emotional balance in males. In both sexes it can aid in clearing the aura, activating the Third Eye and Crown Chakras and the central spinal column of energy. Rainbow Moonstones vibrate at a higher level than the other varieties bringing a powerful alignment to all the chakras as well as a clear sense of groundedness and centeredness. Rainbow Moonstone is good for psychic protection and easing emotional trauma bringing with it the gifts of inner peace and harmony. Another most important aspect of its healing is to balance and integrate the male/female. To deny your other half means you will always be searching for a lost part of yourself (the fantasy twin soul) - what people refer to as their other half, outside of self, which can only be found within the self. In other words, the REAL twin soul is you!
This work is done thru the shamanic process of soul retrieval. Empower yourself and step up to the challenge of mystery, self-discovery, intuition, insight, dreams, and the wisdom of the goddess as the Rainbow Moonstone awaits your heartfelt calling. Sweet dreams and visions!
With Light
