amidst busy preparation time, PPN Astrology still percolates

I am having the time of my life here in December 2017. Not sure how, but I am getting a LOT done. Prepping for massage school upcoming in January – selling books, packing things, studying Ethics of Touch and Pathology, etc. On top of that I am still seeing about 5 – 8 clients aContinue reading “amidst busy preparation time, PPN Astrology still percolates”

I am so excited about massage school (want to donate to my massage education fund?)!

Hello dear readers, I am so very excited to be going to massage school in beautiful, sacred, pristine Crestone Colorado in January (later in the month). I will be driving out there, so just that road trip will be an adventure! I have started a Go Fund Me page to assist me in getting theContinue reading “I am so excited about massage school (want to donate to my massage education fund?)!”

an inspiring book (Tibetan Buddhism)

Every once in a while (or in my case, several times a year), I come across a rare book in Tibetan Buddhism which I wonder how it made its way to the public. Personally I am very inspired by some Dharma stories of previous Tibetan Masters – like Dzo Khyentse Rinpoche or his student, PatrulContinue reading “an inspiring book (Tibetan Buddhism)”

In spite of prepping to leave for school, staying busy!

Hello dear readers, As you probably have heard, I am heading off toward the setting sun in January, so I should say the low sun and cold days, driving West to go to a unique massage school. It is a heaven and earth school, meaning that in addition to massage techniques, they teach a lotContinue reading “In spite of prepping to leave for school, staying busy!”

got my books for massage school; need to study :-)

Hello dear readers! I just got my home study books for massage school. Exciting! And it is amazing how many chapters they have assigned to have finished in the next six weeks – I think 2 or 3 chapters a week of reading will be necessary, plus memorizing countless muscles. Thank goodness I have aContinue reading “got my books for massage school; need to study :-)”

marketing what I offer

A few months ago, I was speaking with a loving relative, when I told her about being a rare male in the field of Pre- and Perinatal therapy (PPN), plus offering biodynamic craniosacral therapy, Polyvagal bodywork, spiritual astrology and Tibetan Buddhist practices. I doubt there are many people on the planet who can offer whatContinue reading “marketing what I offer”

Ri Wo Sang Chod (Mountain of Burnt Offerings)

Had a good time this evening on Afton Mountain at a friend’s house. I led a practice of Ri Wo Sang Chod, which is a bit of a shamanic practice: making offerings to countless beings, most of whom are unknown and unseen. This vast generosity practice helps to purify negative karma or at least karmicContinue reading “Ri Wo Sang Chod (Mountain of Burnt Offerings)”

Differentiating levels and layers of healing

There seems to be a Ray Castellino theme on here… This most recent video discusses many things – including the functional range (how do we stay in the healthy range of our nervous system?), what it takes to be a Pre- and Perinatal (PPN) Practitioner, he differentiates PPN Practitioner from Educator from Trainer, and finallyContinue reading “Differentiating levels and layers of healing”

7 Principles for Harmonic Resonance & Natural Sequencing

I just have to post (promote) this video of Claudia McClean interviewing Ray Castellino. It is about Sequencing and more importantly (perhaps) about the Creative Collective Process – how can we work more efficiently in groups or as individuals. It references a number of Pre- and Perinatal Therapy (PPN) concepts but most of what theyContinue reading “7 Principles for Harmonic Resonance & Natural Sequencing”
