So Thursday night’s grand opening party at Inspiration Chiropractic Studio was a HUGE success. I want to thank all my family, friends (new and old), clients and everyone that came out to support the studio in becoming a community place of healing and wellness. The intention for the night was to raise the vibration of the studio and to bless it with joy and love. That was certainly accomplished.
I’d like to take some time to thank certain people in particular who have been an important part of my dream manifesting itself : )
First of to all my family; their love, encouragment and constant support have truly made me and the studio everything we are today. My brother Harry and my mom, Martha, as well as, my dad, were there all through school and right through to Thrusday night reminding me of my vision, purpose and possiblities even on the days I was too tired to remember for myself. There’s no way to express to them enough how much I love and appriecate them every day. And Kasey, a special thank you to you for being part of the vision … you are truly family.
Anna Ashton, my best friend! She held the vision with me the entire 5 yrs I’ve been on this path. She travled with me to find my first apartment to live in while in school, she visited me in California twice to make sure I was hanging in there … and also making time to have fun. Then she honored me with her presence at the party by traveling up from Tennessee just to help me make sure everything was perfect for our guests and share in the special evening with me. Thank you Anna. Your freindship means the world to me.
I have to mention Toni Smith who was my massage instructor 9 years ago. Toni was the first person to encourage me to continue my education and become a Chiropractor. Thank you for helping me become the health care practitioner I am today and for taking the time to travel from Belmar to be with me at the grand opening. Now that I think about it Toni, you were the one who also introduced me to Reiki! Hmmm … you just rock as a teacher and mentor : )
Karen Chambers … what can I say, Girl … you and your “Living Like You Mean It” class occured at just the right moment. As soon as I returned to NJ ready to set up practice and wanting a supportive friend and coach you appeared, the Earth angel that you truly are : ) When it came down to the nuts and bolts of the vision for the Studio you were my second set of eyes. I cannot thank you enough for all your creativity and dedication (and cleaning up after the party ; ) ). Karen is currently studying to be an Interfaith Minister to enhance her coaching style and she was kind enough to perform a profound, heart-felt blessing over the studio on Thrusday night. It was a very touching and emotional moment for my family and me. Thank you for creating that sacred moment. I look forward to many years of collaberation and friendship with you.
Barbara Lopez is the designer of the INSPIRATION logo, website and this blog. I’m so honored to have your creative pieces associated with the studio. From the first time I found your INSPIRATION photo, which is now prominently displayed in the studio, I knew that you and your work were the perfect match for creating the visual aspects of Inspiration Chiropractic. Thank you for your calm, kindness when I didn’t understand web technology and for your time and effort. All your art is receiving rave reviews. Most of all thank you for your sharing spirit, open-heart and friendship.
A special thank you to Janina Palach of PJ’S TOWNE FLORIST and her parents for their support and encouragement to see the dream of INSPIRATION come true. Janina you went waaaaaaaaay overboard with your generosity. Thank you! All the balloons, flowers, plants and centerpiece for the evening were made by the creative touch of Janina. They are all simply beautiful. And, YES, I’m watering the plants : )! Janina’s dad, Julien, was so sweet to have cleaned up the whole yard and parking lot to make sure it was pretty for the guests. Thank you.
Rev. Teresa Zatonski offered intuitive readings for the guests on Thursday evening. I understand that it takes much of ones energy to perform readings of this nature and I applaude Rev. Teresa for being able to maintain her focus and accuracy in atmosphere of a party setting. Thank you Teresa. Your presence there added tremendously to the vibration of joy and healing. Thank you for working over time so that everyone could have the benefit of your gift.
Also a quick thank you to Rhonda, owner of THE FINE GRIND, who supplied our hot beverages for the evening. You are a classy and creative business woman. I look forward to the growth of our friendship. Also thank you very much to Mike and Khaild at 123 BAGEL DELI for also going way overboard on the fantastic wraps we enjoyed that evening for dinner. Both THE FINE GRIND and 123 BAGEL DELI are located in Little Falls, NJ. Finally, thank you Juliette Foster for the impromptu photo session. It will be fun to see the party through your photographer’s eye!
Again, thank you to everyone that attended the grand opening party, from as near as next door and as far away as TN, to add your personal vibrant energy and support. I look forward to seeing all of you again either in the studio for Chiropractic care or at classes and events yet to come. Please check in with the website regularly for dates of upcoming and on-going happenings.
With much love and gratitude,
Dr. Paula
