One of the coolest things about opening Heart, Body, & Soul has been the diversity of people coming in the door. Young and old and in-between. Students and college professors, skilled laborers and those struggling to find employment. Nurses, doctors, and lawyers. Car washers and mechanics. Artists and musicians, scientists and ministers. Christian, Pagan, Buddhist, Muslim, and none of the above. Energy workers and healers of long experience; and those brand new to even the idea that we live and breathe and move within an energetic body as well as a physical one — and feel better and live better when we learn to take care of both. People who are passionate about oils and herbs and crystals and people who haven’t a glance to spare at that stuff, but happily burrow into a stack of books and emerge only to refill their cup of tea. Folks who are open to trying it all and folks who really prefer not to go there.
Labels and appearances inevitably deceive. We’ve learned to stop guessing at what each new soul walking through the door may be seeking. Instead, we just enjoy the daily reminders of the rich diversity of life and energy, people and paths — and the stunning symphony that results when each of us is simply true to our own authentic self. (A lifetime journey that. Much easier to say than to do, but so VERY worth it.)
Want to know what we’re thankful for today? The music of the crossroads that is Heart, Body, & Soul. Every one of you is part of that song — and together? Friends, you rock the house. Blessed Be!
