Anahata Massage – Healing from the Heart
Jean Zagrodnik, RYT, CMP, Certified in Esalen Massage
Normal Heights and North Park locations
Trained at the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, Jean brings a unique attention to detail and a close intuitive spiritual connection with her clients to the massage table. Known for its long t’ai chi-like integrative body strokes, Esalen Massage awakens awareness and opens/softens tissue and muscle restrictions, empowering each individual to regain a sense of harmony, reverence, and balance, and to awaken inner resources for healing.
Jean’s own personal transformation has instilled a deep respect for the human potential of healing touch through somatic mind-body healing and yoga, and her wish to share this gift with others.
Informed by sensory awareness, swedish massage, oriental medicine, meditation and gestalt practice, this work also borrows from Ida Rolf’s teachings, Moshe Feldenkrais’ sense of neural co-ordinates, Milton Trager’s passive movement to awaken the mind, yoga stretches, somatic mind-body psychology, and more energetically based modalities such as cranial-sacral work.
Pilgrimage members receive an introductory $60 rate for 75 minutes (typically $75)

We are not just our minds, nor our hearts, nor our bodies. We are seamlessly integrated beings without clear delineations between aspects of ourselves. Eric offers holistic support to help you to find your way through the jungle of life and more deeply into the grace of your heart and each moment.
Craniosacral therapy can, in and of itself, offer deep healing and reorganization of the nervous system and biology of the body. Offered on its own, or as in conjunction with Somatic Therapy, Eric has found that after many years of working in many of the popular modalities of bodywork, Biodynamic craniosacral therapy offers the most powerful yet gentle support he has found.

John Beaudry Landscape Design and Installation
John Beaudry, Horticulturist, Designer, Garden Writer, Teacher
I have thirty years experience designing gardens. Horticulture is my passion, my profession and my favorite past time. I specialize in Arts and Crafts style garden design. This is the style that Bungalows and Craftsman style homes evolved from. I create outdoor spaces that harmonize with the place, the architecture, and the people that inhabit the place. I achieve this harmony through the use of native and well-adapted plants, careful study of the built environment, and a thorough dialog with my clients. The result is a garden that is unique in every aspect of the word.
Guiding Principles of an Arts and Crafts Garden
- Unification of house and garden
- Nature as primary source of inspiration
- Use of local materials and plants
- Relaxed plantings
- Enclosure of the garden and its rooms
- Integration of the existing landscape
- Inclusion of edible plants
