Santa Cruz Community invited to Annual Sparkle Party Celebration

SANTA CRUZ, California, December 16, 2013 -- The Lotus Collaborative is approaching their 2nd year serving Santa Cruz and surrounding counties with their specialized treatment in eating disorder recovery.  They hold an annual Sparkle Party Celebration and are inviting the community of Santa Cruz to join them on January 9, 2014 from 5-9pm.  At 5pm, the Santa Cruz Chamber of Commerce will commence an official ribbon cutting ceremony to honor their 2-year anniversary.  As a community connector, and a new member of Think Local First Santa Cruz, the Lotus Collaborative will be honoring local natural healers through self-care stations for guests to enjoy mini massage therapy sessions, polarity therapy, Breema bodywork, bio-feedback, naturopathic medicine, angel card readings and more.  DJ Sparkle, also local, will musically entertain guests inside a heated tent, featuring an impressive lighting display by Om Gallery of Santa Cruz. Tours of the treatment center will occur for the duration of the event, in addition to snacks, a sparkle photo booth, & networking. 

The Lotus Collaborative also invites the community to attend their weekly Eating Disorder Recovery Support group every Sunday from 1-2:30pm. Meet other people working towards recovery from their eating disorder in a safe environment with the opportunity to build relationships and practice recovery skills or recovery coaching skills. Lunchtime meal support is available at 12 Noon. Free and open to the community. 
Running parallel to the Recovery Support group, also weekly on Sundays from 1-2:30pm, is their Family & Supporters Recovery group. This free community support group is designed to provide parents, partners, siblings, roommates or other family members in the community with time devoted just to them; to recognize common struggles and learn new ways to cope.
