We will also explore the differences between concentration, visualization techniques, prayer and meditation. We will discuss raja yoga (royal path of meditation) and bhakti yoga (path of devotion and love) as well as koshas ( 5 levels of consciousness) and yantras (visual representations of consciousness). If one can not attend all three classes, there will be a short review before each new class so the student will be able to participate comfortably.</p>

<p>Unlike some stone work you see on new houses, Tom&#8217;s stone masonry looks like it has been around for hundreds of years &#8212; in a good way: built to last!  If he&#8217;s using cobble stones, he&#8217;s going to find stone with moss growing on them to give it the look of time.</p>
<p>Tom has also done installations with a cultured stone for a new look.  He prefers stones that are real or at a bare minimum made to look real.  Tom is quite versatile and will discuss your project to meet your needs.  He&#8217;s sometimes know to travel for important installations like building hundreds year old ruins.</p>
<p>Contact Tom by phone 734 645-9482 to discuss your project.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[For a massage that combines relaxation, music, massage and stretching and to feel great for days or weeks later, Jody Tull gives a great Thai yoga massage in Ann Arbor, MI.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-701" style="margin: 5px;" title="thaiyogashhoulders" src="http://www.directoryofannarbormi.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/thaiyogashhoulders-200x300.jpg" alt="thaiyogashhoulders" width="200" height="300" />It&#8217;s been quite a while since I had any kind of massage so when <a title="Jody Tull Blog" href="http://jodytull.com">Jody Tull, from Shaping Sound </a>in <strong>Ann Arbor</strong> described a <strong>Thai yoga massage</strong> to me I was intrigued.  At first I thought it was going to be something like having yoga done on your body and maybe not quite a massage but a lot of stretching.</p>
<p>It turned out to be one of the best massages I&#8217;d ever had.  It&#8217;s more than a massage in my opinion because it involves a lot of stretching of large muscle groups.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not a yoga practitioner and I don&#8217;t know anything about yoga except for the downward facing dog which I see my dog do about ten times a day so I may have my terminology off.  It was a combination of chanting and music that relaxes you, and a muscle massage and stretching of your body.  I&#8217;m in dire need this and I didn&#8217;t even know it existed.</p>
<p>It felt like some of the stretches were &#8220;challenging&#8221; but never into the pain zone.  Definitely what I needed.  Its not a soft touch massage which I don&#8217;t care for.  My muscles and connective tissues got moved around and at the end of it all I felt much better.  My body must have had a lot of tension. After the massage  and for over a week I felt more limber and much less tense. </p>
<p>You&#8217;ve got to try this out for yourself.  One more thing,  Jody gives these massages in this little hide away in the city near Cedar Bend.  It a very old and charming building with a nice garden, patio and screened in porch that she and her husband Rupert DeSalis are fixing up.  She calls it Shaping Sound.  An I will bring this to you in a future post.</p>
<p>Contact Jody Tull to set an appointment for a <a title="ann arbor thai yoga massage" href="http://jodytull.com/ann-arbor-thai-yoga-massage/">Thai Yoga Massage in Ann Arbor</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-688" style="margin: 5px;" title="stonestructure" src="http://www.directoryofannarbormi.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/stonestructure.jpg" alt="stonestructure" width="300" height="244" />You&#8217;ll see Tom Fuleky, our local <strong>Ann Arbor stone mason</strong>, diligently working on old and new stone projects around town.  Tom is the master stone mason when it comes to working with natural stone.  Using a technique called random rubble, Tom takes a pile of stone and carefully arranges it so that it is both structurally sound and harmoniously pieced together in a way that looks like it has been there for ages.</p>
<p>Speaking of the ages, Tom Fuleky&#8217;s talents have been utilized in several old world creations, creating ancient ruins for major garden shows and home owners throughout the country.</p>
<p>You can find more pictures of Toms work on his site <a title="ann arbor stone mason" href="http://www.tomfuleky.com">Ann Arbor Stone Mason Tom Fuleky</a>.</p>
