This Weekend’s Oasis Oracle
A Little Weekly Inspiration to Keep You from Spiraling

“Turtle Spirit in Protection” : from the Spirit Animal Oracle Deck

Slow & steady wins the race this weekend. An old Norse saying sums the energy of this weekend perfectly, “We do without doing and everything gets done”.

Sometimes we get so caught up in the doing and striving of life that we forget to give ourselves permission to pause, feel into THIS moment, and trust that everything will work out perfectly.

I know how difficult that is, especially right now. But I invite you to trust that the insanity of this present moment is part of the evolution of our species and society.

It is so overwhelming that it is almost exactly what we need to be snapped out of this trance that we currently have with our technology. The “AI could end humanity by the end of the decade” messaging could be the perfect sign post for : put your phone down and enjoy some much needed time with our beautiful Mother Earth.

And, now is the perfect moment! Autumn in Wisconsin is SO beautiful.
Get outside. Take that drive. Have coffee by the lake.

Slow down. Be Here. On Mother Earth. With your Loved Ones.
That is this Weekend’s Invitation

🌕✨ FULL MOON SOUNDBATH & SWEET TREATS ✨🌕

What if you gave yourself one Sunday morning to simply lie down, receive, and listen?

Join Anna Clifford for a Frequency of Light © crystal sound healing experience at Bohemian Oasis.

🗓 Sunday, September 27
⏰ 10:00–11:00 AM
📍 Bohemian Oasis Healing Center
1956 Atwood Ave, Madison

Frequency of Light © is a multidimensional sound healing practice designed to support harmony throughout the energetic body, including the 12 chakra system and light body.

Each session is co-created in the moment, guided by the energy present in the room. You may experience sensation, emotion, imagery, deep stillness, profound rest... or something entirely your own. There is nothing you need to achieve. Simply arrive, get comfortable, and allow the sound to meet you where you are. 💫

And because coming back down to Earth deserves a little sweetness, we'll close with homemade treats to help you ground. 🍪🤍

✨ ALL are welcome!

Bring whatever you need to lie down comfortably. A yoga mat is recommended; blankets and bolsters are provided.

Space is limited and registration is confirmed once payment is received.

💫 To reserve your spot, Venmo

The Cozy Sauna Garden Lounge at Bohemian Oasis

With Autumn right around the corner, I wanted to highlight the OG of our two Sauna Experiences: The Cozy Sauna Garden Lounge.

This sweet little room is a perfect solo get-away or an intimate experience for you and a special friend. The Lounge is filled with tropical plants, nature sounds, and of course, our sweet little 1-2 person sauna.

This little sauna has the ability to run as an Infrared or traditional Finnish heat source.

What’s the difference, you might ask?
Well, the Infrared setting has heat emanating from the walls and tops out at 149 degrees, and this setting does not allow for steam. Infrared saunas get a lot of hype for having extra special, magical healing abilities, but from the research I have done, the “research” making those claims is marketing hype. Just my 2 cents, if you’re interested!

The Finnish setting uses a heating element that can get that little beast all the way up to 195 degrees! Not only that, you can pour water on the stones to create the most satisfying steam experience. Honestly, I much prefer the Finnish setting over the Infrared, but to each their own!

Taking a sauna a few times a week is not only good for the body, but it is SO good for the mind and soul too. When that heat hits the center of your being, it creates the most amazing sense of well-being. And, when your body has caught that Wisconsin chill (YOU know what I’m talking about), there is absolutely nothing that compares to the deep settling heat of a Finnish Sauna.

Notes from the Owner: Listening to Messages that are Sent through the Body

Man, I really feel like the Universe is pushing me to NOT be doing massage. Period. As the owner and manger I’ve already been on that path long before going to Paris. My plan was to cut back to just 2 massages per week starting this month, but then, of course, I could open up more days week-to-week if I felt like it or the business needed me to. But maybe that’s even too much?

I came home from being in Paris for 10 days, did 2 days of massage, and then immediately came down with a respiratory virus that knocked me out of commission for a full week.

Then, once I was recovered, I again did 2 days of massage (and was planning on covering for another ill employee and do 5 full days of massage), and I threw my back out. I mean really out. My back hasn’t hurst this much since my exciting “broken back in the mountains” story from 9 years ago…if you don’t know this story, you should ask me about it. I might actually do a post this week on the socials because it’s pretty funny (and not at the same time). Anywho, the back thing threw me out of massage for another week.

Then, on Monday, I had a hysteroscopy. Thankfully, I'm feeling pretty good after that. A little tired and crampy for a couple of days, but it's not knocking me out of all activity. Phew!! But, still!

Well, the moral of the story (maybe):
Life is asking me to focus on aspects of the business that are not “me doing the massages”. Lord knows there are definitely some areas I’ve been avoiding this summer (because I had to do more massages!). Haha. Have I learned the lesson yet? Yes, I think so. I hope so!

Here’s to not-so-gentle lessons that force us to slow down, lay in the grass and watch the leaves wave in the wind because that’s about where I’m at right now.

Much Love from the Oasis,
Alicia Hamilton, Founder and Owner

This Month's Featured Staff Member : Tiffany Miscik, LMT

How to decribe this most amazing of humans... She is one of the kindest, hardest working, most sincere, dependable, down-to-earth, funniest midwestern healers I know. She hates it when we call her a healer, but the magic that this girls does with your shoulders?! No other word for it.

Tiffany joined our little family 2. 5 years ago when me moved into our new home in Schenk's Corners and having her on board has been such a sweet blessing. Not only does she give an amazing massage, but she is also just such a pleasant human to be around and an amazing employee to boot.

Tiffany loves her gardens and her animals and going on adventures, especially if the adventures involve beaches with pretty rocks for her to scour for her ever expanding collection.

She specializes in Integrative and Deep Tissue Massage and will soon be adding Myfascial Release to her box of magical tricks.

She is available:
Tuesdays : 2-8pm
Wednesdays: 2-8pm
Fridays: 8am-2pm
And a spattering of weekends when she's feeling it.
