Liz Haapanen, CMT has joined chiropractor, Eydi Bauer, DC. They have relocated their respective practices to Caspar situated in the Caspar Gardens.

Although locals know Liz from her work with the Alliance for Democracy, or from her former magazine, Sojourn, she has been exploring techniques in healing and pain relief since the mid-seventies.

This past year Liz has been seeing clients through the Fort Bragg Yoga Studio. Now FBYS clients will begin phasing in to the new space at the beautiful Caspar Gardens.

Liz was certified as a massage therapist in the mid-eighties, and has since been learning alternative therapeutic and restorative techniques. She has studied locally with teacher/healers Gene Dobkin, Karin Uphoff, and Barbara Birchard.

In addition to her unique approach to massage, Liz addresses the musculature with techniques taken from Deep Tissue, Orthobionomy, and Jin Shin Acupressure. She then infuses Cranio-Sacral therapy to help balance the nervous system. For more information you can call Liz directly at 964-1674.

We would like to bid farewell to our beloved instructor, Lauren Monko. We wish her abundance and blessings as she returns to graduate school. While she will be greatly missed by yogis, and yoginis, it might just happen that she pops in for a workshop or two in time to come.

So many exciting changes are upon us for the summer. Our goal is to keep you updated as comprehensively as possible. In keeping with this goal, we have a hefty list of dynamic announcements! So, get ready, here it comes.

Our most imminent, exciting piece of news is the soon-to-be opening of our new studio, which will likely take place in July, as the expansion of the Fort Bragg Yoga Studio. The new space is conveniently located right next door, and will house our future office, as well as be sporting a magnificent bamboo floor just waiting to be caressed by loving feet in all movement genres! We invite you to cruise by and take a peek while it's under construction, but by the end of July, if not sooner, YOU may be christening it with your footsteps.

In the CCT ™ Intro Class (2 _ hours) you learn how (and receive an activation) to set your energy fields. It only takes about two minutes to vibrationally place your positive intentions for the day in your energy fields. Anyone who has trouble being in groups or who suffers from pain, chronic illness or environmental sensitivities especially benefits from enhanced energy fields.

In the CCT ™ Basic Class (3 days, prerequisite Intro Class) you receive three activations and learn how to give a CCT ™ table healing session; how to give yourself a session; how to work in a distant format; how to interweave CCT ™ with other modalities, and also how to work with group energy. You will deepen your understanding of intention and give and receive several healings. You receive certification as a Basic CCT ™ practitioner and your contact info is on two websites, promoting your practice.

Because of free will and choice we can only intend for ourselves. However, we can positively affect any group we are a part of, by anchoring our positive intentions into the group energy grid, using CCT ™. Imagine the best for your families, friends, communities, and planet!

Whether Beginning or All Levels, I hope my classes will encourage you to:

• Come a bit further than where your mind believes you can go.
• Open the hips, shoulders, hamstrings in ways not previously discovered.
• Find the thrill & bliss of going upside down as you practice Inversions!
• Strengthen the core & allow the heart area to soar skyward in deep Backbends.
• Quiet & calm the mind as we open the back body in Forward Bending poses.
• Use the Balancing & Standing poses to take the strength & centeredness you discover in class & bring it into your everyday life.
• Use the left & right sides of the body equally to challenge that brain!
• Come and check it out! I really look forward to seeing you at the studio.
