THE POWER OF THE PELVIS
The pelvic floor (also known as the pelvic diaphragm) supports the lower abdominal organs, controls elimination, is an important basis for personal power in Eastern philosophies, and is the source of sexual sensation. When it is weak, we are prone to uterine prolapse and leaky urine, and can not engage life with full vitality. We will learn exercises from the Feldenkrais Method of Movement Education which will increase sensation and strength. These exercises go beyond Kegels in their depth and ability to create change. Bring a pad to lie on the floor.
BONES FOR LIFE
This system is an offshoot of the Feldenkrais Method of Movement Education. We will practice movement explorations that support posture and alignment. This works not by following usual postural rules, but by sensory-motor experiences that make standing and walking more comfortable and alive. These processes stimulate the spine in a way that may decrease the chances of osteoporosis.
Both classes require floor (or ground, but floor preferred) space for everyone to lie down, and a quiet atmosphere. In Bones for Life, we will do exercises that require the hands or feet to touch the wall, so we also need wall space, indoors or on the porch.
Ann Harman is an osteopathic physician, Guild Certified Practitioner of the Feldenkrais Method of Movement Education, student teacher of Bones for Life, Certified Hypnotherapist, and Licensed Massage Therapist.

MOONHAVEN IN MELLOW ROSE HOME SWEET HOME
by FLASH SILVERMOON
Moonhaven is an illuminating and mystical space and I feel that this place is my home to the very core of me. It is a space so familiar yet continually offers surprises when I take the time to wander amidst the citrus groves, listen to the night call of the many Barred owls, or sit beneath the welcoming arms of the ancient Grandmother Tree.
The Grandmother Tree is a 500 + year old Live Oak that was struck and split in two by lightning some 300 years ago. Now she presides over Moonhaven like some all-enveloping Druid Priestess.
What an incredible metaphor for Flash Silvermoon to live beside this Phoenix, this awesome earth sculpture that was struck by lightning and not only didn’t die but thrived winding its moss laden arms around my lavender house!
It would not be at all difficult to imagine or perhaps even see the Faeries playing around and under this Ancient One dancing draped in Spanish Moss with acorn caps.
This majestic tree enchanted my Pagan soul into buying this homestead and becoming her caretaker. I have been honored to be in service of such a profound offering from Mother.Earth.

Tree Magic at Moonhaven
Here at Moonhaven the trees have surely been teaching me. Some 10 years ago or so while in meditation my guides or perhaps the devas of this place spoke to me of what they wanted me to do for them and they were quite specific. They wanted me to arrange stumps bowls and stones around 4 particular trees. As I began to fulfill my task, I noticed that the 4 trees chosen actually made a cross in my yard. (read on…)

Lions and Tigers and Flash Oh My
Its been a long time since I had a day off of leisure without a new crisis rearing its head but this Sunday, I seized the moment to go to one of my favorite places on the planet, EARS Endangered Animal Rescue Sanctuary run by my 2 friends Gail and Jaye www.BigCatSanctuary.org check this place out if you want to see some gorgeous big cats.
I have been going there to treat and love these beautiful, awesome cats and other creatures for about9 years. During this time I havve built some wonderful relationships with many of the animals there. I have bottle fed some of the tigers that are there since they were no bigger than one of my house cats.

Healing Duke the Tiger*************
Date: 6/6/2005 Excerpt from my forthcoming book
LIFETIME COMPANIONS: LOVE NEVER DIES
This book is devoted to the marvelous and amazing animals that I have had the honor to share my life, many of which return again and again to teach and share their love.
One never expects to suddenly wind up in a tiger’s cage pulling this awesome animal from the jaws of death but sometimes, the Goddess has other plans for you and you had best be up to the task at hand!
May 16 was just such a day in my life.
The Full Moon in Sagittarius pushed me back to The Endangered Animal Rescue Sanctuary[EARS], to work on healing Duke, one of the biggest and most splendid tigers you will ever see. I had visited him on Saturday when I heard that he was not doing well and joined the “Duke team” of supporters many of whom have alternated sleeping near his cage for many nights as this case has evolved. As a matter of fact, between Jaye,Gail, Cristina,Morgan,Susan,Amy,Kelly, Craig, and me,Duke has not spent a minute without human company in at least two and a half weeks and believe me he is loving it!.

Creating Grids, a Fifth Dimensional Tool for Healing Yourself, Your Animals and the Planet.
by Flash Silvermoon
Are you willing to approach the possibility of creating a miniature temple for you and yours that cannot only offer you elevation of the body, mind and spirit but can actually facilitate healing? Are you willing to walk that Rainbow Bridge into the magical, mystical world of the Fifth Dimension, the place where the miraculous can unfold..if you believe?
To do this, we are required to entertain a “beginner’s mind,” that is, to approach these concepts as a willing, curious child open to wonder and magic!
Spirit is clearly telling me in every way that if I am to write about the Fifth Dimension, then I must also live it. As I write, I am daily given opportunities of how to live more attuned to this space and it is one of profound peace.
WHAT IS THE FIFTH DIMENSION? (read on…)

ALTERNATIVE HEALING FOR ANIMALS IN THE SHADOW OF EARTH CHANGES
For years we have been talking about,fearing,waiting for, gathering info and doing ritual, and otherwise praying to avoid or at least be in the best position to weather Earth Changes. The truth is they are upon us, here and now.
Spiritually, I believe that we still do have some choices as to how physically this planet needs to experience these traumas.
Scientists say that this is indeed a time of cataclysmic changes for the earth and its weather patterns that are cyclical over thousands of years. That does not even take into consideration the governmental manipulation of weather using H.A.R.P. The Elders of the Hopi, Mayans and other Ancient Ones tell of such changes. However, they also say that by raising the vibration of love and oneness we can avoid some of the more horrifying symptoms of such changes.
Clearly when the smallness and genocidal proclivities of the current regime raised their ugly heads during the series of Katrina disasters in the Gulf Coast, the deep goodness of the common people of this country shone brightly like a beacon for the poor and displaced.
During those difficult days,I rode through my little town of Melrose,in north Central Florida and saw any number of groups raising $$ collecting food and clothing for the survivors of this Diaspora. Left and Right, Pagan and Christian, regular people were hearing the call from within and responding in inspiring and profound ways.
This is a time of great polarities. What is good, is better and more elevating and inspiring than any outpouring I have seen in my life?

Flash Silvermoon Interview..for Pagan Pathways
Date: 10/2/2007 8:36:01 AM Eastern Daylight Time
Thank you so much for agreeing to share with us! Please do tell us about yourself and feel free to be as in depth as you like!We would love to print your picture too!
ok I will pick a couple for ya
Where were you born and raised and what are some of your earliest memories?
I was born in the presence of my mother on March 18, 1950, in Jersey City, NJ. I am quite sure that my room must have faced the Statue of Liberty because I have been a freedom fighter for as long as I can remember. They tell me that after singing Happy Birthday to me on my first birthday, I smiled and put my fist through the cake!
My first Feminist action took place in kindergarten at 4 yrs of age. I had been participating in the rhythm band for a couple of weeks just waiting for my turn to play the snare drum. I had clicked the claves and clanged the triangle but that magic moment when my sticks would strike the skin of the DRUM was awaiting me that morning or so I thought. I was not raised to think that girls were inferior to boys so imagine my surprise when I had the sticks taken from my hands and was told that girls could play anything but this and that I could go to the back of the line again.
My little egalitarian heart was breaking but I screwed up my courage to tell the teacher that this was unfair and was there something else that I could do during this time as I didn’t want to be a part of something so unfair. She told me that I could fingerprint and so I stood in the corner for the rest of the year and finger-painted during the rhythm band time.
This theme and connection with the drums has followed me all the way through adulthood and today am appreciated as an accomplished percussionist. (read on…)

Thawing the Body/releasing places where shock still lives
In dealing with the grief and loss that this season awakens,I have had a new insight.As I write this
I realize that these sudden shocks to our system leave scars and tears and disrupt the energy patterns that enable all the meridians to flow as naturally as they might..
I see myself as one who has had way too many blows and sudden tears in the past few years and that my body had become frozen into these points of shock sort of like a photo in a freeze frame where the electrical short circuiting and
explosions are still happening. I saw myself cringing and gripping myself tightly together as if this would protect me from the cataclysms bursting around me;as
if they are still present (read on…)
