Spring has Sprung! Out with the old and in with the new. We just finished the task of eliminating all product and display pieces that were not located on a wall. This opens up the central floor space.Why? Having dedicated space eliminates the need for us to break down and set back up again before and after events. It also creates a win-win situation because the space is now available to others for yoga, tai chi, meetings, workshops, breathwork, presentations, book clubs, guided meditation, classes, events, etc... If you're interested in using this space, please call Len for the details at 815-276-7173.

Curiositrees Anyone who knows me well, knows that trees are my favorite things. As so eloquently spoken by The Trees of Endor in J.R.R. Tolkien’s book, Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, "Trees purify the air; they also purify the mind . . . if you want to save your world, you must save the trees.”
You can imagine, then, how delighted I was to find Curiositrees -- a 52 card meditation deck of tree-faced photos and messages that provide insight -- and be able to make them available to you. Each deck is $18.95.
