About
This Month's Event
We're very excited that Richard Bock, Mellissa Seaman, and The
Quantum Light Breath Orchestra are coming back to Santa Cruz to
facilitate an evening of Quantum Light Breath Meditation and Shamanic
Heart Journey. Using deeply effective guidance, Richard will guide
us in exploring the healing power of the breath, combined with the
deep vibrational sounds of the didgeridoo and toning, as well as flute,
harmonium, Tibetan bells and bowls, drums, and other musical instruments.
In an atmosphere of permission and direct experience, old belief and
holding patterns can easily give way to reveal the radiance of our
true nature. Mellissa, Richard,
and Michael will then lead us in a Shamanic Heart Journey, utilizing
specific trance-inducing rhythms, breathing techniques, meditation,
and visualization to release the spirit to journey, free the ego,
quite the chattering brain… and allow our hearts to become our
guides to open our truest, most essential nature. The evening will
include a facilitated sharing circle to ground and integrate the experience.
All are welcome. Dress for movement. We look forward to seeing you
there!
About Our Special Guests
Richard Bock, Aquatic Bodyworker, CMT, is a well-known practitioner
of Watsu and Waterdance, and teaches at the School of Shiatsu and
Massage at Harbin Hot Springs. His work is characterized by constant
attention to the breath and by an extraordinary ability to connect
profoundly with each person on both a physical and energetic level.
Richard has been teaching meditation since 1978 and is a longtime
practitioner and facilitator of Quantum Light Breathwork. Richard's
style is warm, personal, and a direct extension of his being - a combination
of childlike joy and deep, passionate connection. A deeply spiritual,
loving, and present human being, Osher has been playing the
didjeridoo for over eight years and is a virtuoso with sound, vibrational,
and tonal healing. She performs and plays for music meditations, teaching,
rituals, and events, and offers sound vibrational healings in all
around the world. Jon has been performing and composing music
since he was very young, and currently records and produces music
out of his San Rafael-based Little Buddha Studio. His musical explorations
continue to lead him deeper into the experiential aspects of healing
through sound. Through Quantum Light Breath, Jon's musical sensitivity
enhances the breathwork experience. Mellissa
Seaman is a shamanic priestess channeling healing, wisdom, and
transformation. She shares her intuitive god-given gift for effecting
deep and powerful release of sexual trauma and re-balancing the sexual
creative energies in all people through profound shamanic healing,
and through teaching women the ecstatic practices of the Temple Priestess.
Mellissa also provides clarity and psychic channeled advise through
Tibetan Numerology Readings. Mellissa transmits profound healing energy
through her classes and private sessions while remaining accessible
to people of all backgrounds, traditions, and lifestyles. Her varied
experience and open sense of humor create in her a beautiful balance
between the spiritual and material worlds. For more information about

About
Sacred Saturdays
Each Sacred Saturday is unique, drawing from various traditions such
as Tantra, meditation, yoga, Buddhism, Sufism, Native American, dance,
chant, and other paths to help us connect with ourselves and each
other from a place of presence, awareness, and aliveness. Each monthly
evening provides the opportunity to participate in a special Tantric
Puja (sacred ritual) that may involve movement, music, breath practice,
energy work, dance, chanting, active and still meditations, guided
visualization, communication practices, and other ways to honor and
celebrate our bodies, hearts, and spirit. Practices and rituals may
be done alone, with a partner, or as part of the whole group. We strive
to create an environment that is safe, respectful, and comfortable
for those coming alone or as a couple, those coming for the first
time, and those who want to build an ongoing community of people devoted
to cultivating sacredness and joy in life.
