links. These are true gifts and provide some of the "tools" for
continuing to move forward with what I learned from you on Saturday." - Mark B.

Playshop was an extraordinary time for me. Besides learning numerous new
breathing, meditation, and visualization exercises, I was impressed with how

together as a group gave me the opportunity to learn with some of the lovely
women I already know, and to meet others." - Mary O.

"Thank
you for yet another wonderful, inspiring and creative workshop yesterday, at
the Abundance Wellness Center. I was very blessed to be a part of it and
learned so much. You just get better and better! You are TRULY a gifted
facilitator and one who practices what they preach. You are the embodiment of
Sat Nam! My favorite two things were the woman/man balancing movement piece -
LOVED it! Beautiful music, beautiful experience - it just really worked
for me. And of course, bountiful, beautiful blissful - I am so impressed
with the way you created these amazing movement exercises that were simple
in many ways yet profound in others. All I can say is WAHE GURU and keep
on teaching!!!!" - Jasbir

"Hi
Astara: I just wanted to let you know I thought your weekend Playshop was
amazing! And perfect timing at that! Sunday morning I practiced
both of the energy replenish and release techniques you shared! Thank you! I enjoyed meeting the people who
attended who I didn't know and reconnecting with the ones I did. Your workshop
helped me to strengthen my Courage and Self Confidence muscles. Now I think back on the class and recognize the Courageous Being
I AM! Thank you again! Love and Light!" - LaTanya
"Astara’s workshop was very healing! I particularly enjoyed
learning the breath meditation exercises, music and journey work. I
rediscovered feelings that I had forgotten and buried in my childhood for
years. The experience was fun, interactive and very inspiring. She is a true
intuitive and example that the journey never ends. When we are grounded in
consciousness and use our tools along the way, it keeps getting better!" - Ty A.
"Thank
you for class tonight. I got a lot out of it. I found it fascinating that the
first thing that came up right after balancing the chakras was incident from
childhood and the powerlessness of that day. What I found to be very
interesting is that self-confidence came right to me during the reclaim
portion. I really enjoyed your class and look forward to others like it. I am
fascinated by the fact that I let go of something bad and its opposite came
back to me. Thank you again!" - JD
"Thank
you so much for inviting me to your workshop; it was wonderful! I’ve already
told two of my friends about it and they would like to come with me to your
next one." - Kathy S.
"Sat
Nam beautiful wise wild woman. Thank you for such a lovely and profound
experience Saturday. You are a most gifted person in every way - what I
was impressed with the most was your confidence and ability to hold the space,
so that we all felt safe. Its one thing to say it, its another thing
entirely for the students to actually feel that it is true. I think that
is the highest compliment I could give to you because I think it is the most
important - without that, none of the activities matter." - Gobindria
"Thank
you Astara for facilitating this powerful workshop. It was a beautiful
fellowship of fun, playfulness, creativity, and personal growth... much like a
replication of our designed nature for this life experience. From the
opening with blessing the four directions, unifying the group and connecting to
Mother Earth, to the closing circle, I felt safe to be and remain open.
Providing the journals and time to reflect throughout the day was extremely
beneficial to me so that I could capture the moment and free myself to explore
additional insights. The body movement exercises took me out of my head so
I could simply feel, but then following that with stillness and meditation
allowed me to connect the two together, super cool! I learned a lot during
the group discussion, you have an uncanny ability to listen and relate to each
individual as well as the group in it's entirety. I feel you endowed
me with the knowledge and tools to continue what I learned in the workshop at
home. Much appreciation and love to you dearest teacher!" - Heather
"I
found out about Conscious Mastery® through a friend. I was having personal
problems dealing with relationships in my life, and wondering how I got to this
point? Had I forgotten everything I'd ever learned? Well, in short, I called
Astara on the phone, not really intending to find long-sought after answers in
ONE phone call! Her insight and wisdom, and her unique ability to say precisely
the right words so that I understood exactly what she was trying to convey was
amazing. When I was talking with her, I started jotting down some of the key
words that she used and after we hung up, I felt so much better, even uplifted.
I reread the words I had written down and I felt very clear-minded about how I
had gone wrong, what to do to get back on the right track, most of all I
[personally] had a stronger sense of self, knowing that my feelings matter and
compassion toward the other person. Thanks Astara!" - Katy C.
"Astara is a beautiful soul filled worker. She’s skilled in
harmonizing the inner being with the outer being. She has been a student of
life and spirit and has been given a beautiful array of healing modalities that
seem to know how to connect to your soul and merge with all of you, thus
enriching your soul and catapulting your being into new dimensions of soulful
existence. Astara truly lives up to her name. She comes from the tear of the
mighty one, she’s fearless yet able to get right to the matter and ride the
current into a new existence using the energy as a transformational device. How
fortunate we are to have a spiritual master of this degree in our presence
working in a manner that is of love." - Connie S.
"In my journey of self-awareness, knowledge, and growth I
sought to gain a deeper understanding of my unconscious patterns. Astara’s
amazing intuitive practice brought forth many personal truths that inspired,
challenged, and changed me. Months later I still reflect and share with others
the many insights I gained from my time with Astara as well as the simple
lessons she shared that had a profound impact on my attitude and perceptions of
life. I am grateful for and rewarded from my interactions with her." - Karen L.
"I am really grateful for my time spent with Astara who has
been a power guide as a hypno-therapist and counselor. Astara has assisted me
in breaking the current cycle of abuse and unhealthy sexual connections with my
ex-partner. Shifting my inner dialogue from negative, destructive to optimistic
and divine. Integrating inner child and bringing light to the parts of myself
that have needed love. Connecting with Divine essence and breaking unhealthy
patterns that no linger serve the highest good. Working with Astara helps me
formulate a vision of healthy self-love and creating a vision of healthy
relationship. I am able to recognize a turning point. In recognizing a turning
point I can make a new choice." - Diana H.
"For most of us in middle age life presents us with
opportunity to grow. Each of us responds differently to those challenges. My
most recent, was an emotional stumbling block with the loss of a relationship.
I found myself being hyper-critical and I was experiencing broken thoughts on
how to process through it. We all have a choice to go it alone or reach out for
guidance. I have done it both ways. Today however I choose to share with
someone I trust. I feel fortunate to know Astara from Conscious Mastery. Astara's
attentive listening skills, ancient intuition and direct energy is grounding. I
received a healthy dose of positive affirmations to help move me into solid
positive thinking of the world I live in. Astara I want to thank you for your
advice and the CD you made for me to reinforce the tools we talked about.
Everyday is a new day rising... peace." - Steve W.
