Mission
Statement:
Let's get well, stay well,
and make the world beautiful in every sense... and have fun.
Holistic means that every
part
contains the whole; that no part can be separated from any other.
So getting well involves
physical,
psychological and spiritual aspects of the individual.
The individual is related as
cause and as result of the society.
Neil Anderson, L.M.T.
Neil gives amazing, sensitive, skillful massage sessions.
Formerly at the Lloyd House, Neil is now practicing at his own home in
Northside nearby. $65
is extremely reasonable for an hour massage. Half hours
available. Gift certificates available. Call for

What is The
Lloyd House?
Since 1957 my family has occupied this
wonderful
old home in Clifton. It is listed on the National Register of
Historic
Landmarks for its distinguished architecture (Richardson Romanesque
Revival,
1888) and because it was the residence from 1908 of John Uri Lloyd,
chemist,
pharmacist, educator, botanist and author. Dr. Lloyd, together
with
is also remarkable brothers founded the Lloyd Library on Plum Street,
an
internationally important repository of botanical - pharmacutical
knowledge.
In 1997 I began hosting here a various
assortment
of programs related to my interest in the holistic
approach.
We have had yoga classes, musical performances, cooking classes,
drumming
circles, shamanism classes, healings by Tibetan monks, performance art
and theater, ... even weddings. Most people, coming for the first
time to this house say, "Oh, I have noticed this house for years and
always
wanted to see the inside!"

The Alexander
Technique
My teaching room at the Lloyd HOuse
as of July, 2009
In a daring move, I began training as an
Alexander
Technique
teacher when I was 66. I just couldn't not do it. Now, in
the summer
of 2009, I have just completed the three year intensive training and am
having a wonderful time seeing many people for lessons. In the
interests of seeing as many students as possible I am offering
ridiculous low rates.* This
is an
opportunity you shouldn't pass up if you have ever had an interest in
the technique. Probably by Thanksgiving or before, I'll be
raising the
fee. My schedule has been completely booked since graduating and
offering this great deal, so if you want to take advantage of it, you
may have to wait.
If you have never heard of the amazing
Alexander Technique, it is
good for aches and pains of the muscles, good for over all health, good
for posture, good for artistic performance, good for athletic
performance, and good for your psychology, whether you issue is stress,
worry, time management, clutter control, ... the list goes on.
You can
read introductions to the technique at many, many websites around the
world. Two of my favorites are : http://www.alexandertechnique.com
and
http://www.missyvineyard.com
. Below, a link to some of my own writings on my path to
becoming a teacher and my thoughts about the technique.
Call me up and schedule a small budget
lesson!*
Ellen Bierhorst 513 221 1289
Link to a page with several
articles I am writing about the technique.
.................
* A word about fees. As of this moment, 7/25/09, I believe I will
offer any new pupil a free first lesson, followed by three lessons at
$10, followed by four more lessons at $20... probably with the proviso
that they pay in advance. The concept is that a brand-new student
cannot possibly groc the
relevance and importance of the Alexander Technique in their lives
short of that many lessons, so why not help them to get it?
