We've been talking to internet marketers and she and her husband and Spiro and his wife Connie are the new owners of Cellini Grill and cafe near here at the Sonoma County airport. Now we'll be back in just a moment. We'll be talking to chantal Osmond and

00:05:02.500 - 00:05:22.810

we'll be talking about the heart to heart counseling center. But first this pause I'm out here every week talking to people about sex. My message is simple if you're gonna have sex. A latex condom use consistently and correctly could help prevent the spread of HIV and

00:05:22.810 - 00:05:51.040

other stds. People out there gotta understand that's why I'll go anywhere to talk about latex condoms. Even into your living room. Welcome back to this edition of Sonoma County in the nineties on location at the beautiful Sonoma County Airport restaurant called Cellini Grill and cafe neo.

00:05:51.050 - 00:06:09.360

The lovely place. If you haven't been there, you should come out. My guest on this particular edition of the program is Chantelle Osmond who is a tell me licensed clinical social worker licensed clinical social worker but she is also a chancellor and a counselor at the

00:06:09.360 - 00:06:26.000

heart to heart healing center here in santa rosa. Now this is comparatively new. We're gonna learn more about as we go along. But let's start out with. So you're a therapist, right? Yes, that's what I'm supposed to be and that's what I'm called and um I

00:06:26.000 - 00:06:51.190

love being a therapist. It goes together with being a social worker as well and I've learned to use different methods and also a healer. Um social worker, a counselor, a therapist. So they all go together. What kind of therapy do you do tell? Well the therapy

00:06:51.190 - 00:07:17.840

that I do, the work that I do with clients as I would call them has to do with learning, teaching them and teaching myself derivatives out of social work which is what I've learned 20 years ago and working with people helping them helping myself. It is

00:07:17.850 - 00:07:38.590

out of Aikido which I have practiced for the last 10 years and I have a second review back belt And it is out of vibration which I have practiced for the last 10 years as well which comes out of breathing and integration of from negatives into

00:07:38.590 - 00:08:00.500

positives. So it's a, it's different. There are other kinds of therapy Just start floating in 12 step. How do you different from these? Well it's kind of what I do is kind of based on what the client brings to me. So I use what I've said.

00:08:00.500 - 00:08:20.410

I have like aikido. I use vivacious in. I use social work. Uh, it's not original, but it is what I find these people bring to me. So I work with them and I use whatever it takes to get people to feel good. That's the end result.

00:08:20.410 - 00:08:46.550

That sounds good to me. What is your philosophy on therapy? My philosophy has to do with what I live by. Basically I have five words that are important to me and those five words have to do with forgiveness, gratitude, detachment, Acceptance, which is probably the highest

00:08:46.550 - 00:09:14.250

form I know of and humility, which I mostly have problems with. That's one of my toughest one. And I'm not saying I lived by them 100%. But what I'm always reminded of that and love is probably the top what part of your, your job as a

00:09:14.260 - 00:09:37.070

counselor or a healer do you find most enjoyable and most meaningful? That's a difficult question. But it's basically all of it. Um, it's tough for me to say I love one area more than another. I love being involved with people and what people bring to me.

00:09:37.970 - 00:10:03.320

I work with. So it's usually a very powerful exciting process. Well, you're saying in essence that you have a completely open mind and whatever they feel in there you deal with. I work with. Yes. Yes, I do. You said something about a Liveness training as opposed

00:10:03.320 - 00:10:32.710

to what def deadness training uh, Alive in this training. I call the experiences that I've had through 20 years of work with people and I do workshops, I do um groups and I teach people how to find their center their own center of a liveness because

00:10:32.710 - 00:10:53.010

we all have our own identity and having a knowledge of what the Liveness means. I coined the phrase of Liveness because that to me is a very exciting experience and I love it and I can't teach what I don't love. Well, that's very honest of you.

00:10:53.380 - 00:11:15.570

Many people do, but I'm glad to hear you say you don't do that. What kind of people come to you and what kind of problems do they bring you? The problems come out of a lot of stress. People bring me stress all the time. People are

00:11:15.580 - 00:11:41.640

overworked. Um they feel depressed, they feel um like life is not giving them what they need. Um They have problems with families with Children with parents, it's endless. They come with all kinds of problems. But what I found in my experience is that people come to

00:11:41.640 - 00:12:00.560

me out of word of mouth, see, I've for the last seven years, I've been in private practice and the referrals that I have received from people that know me. So somebody knows this person and they said, you gotta go see her and somebody knows this person.

00:12:00.570 - 00:12:18.900

So I get referrals from that, and also from friends, friends that know me. Um and I work with anything that people present me with and I asked them what they need and they tell me what they need and then I tell them what I can do

00:12:18.900 - 00:12:39.360

and if they want to do something with themselves then I can work with them Well. It has to be very satisfying to know that you've helped someone. But do you work with, do you do groups? Yes workshops, group therapy, that sort of thing. Yes. Yes, I

00:12:39.360 - 00:12:58.350

do. As a matter of fact, I have a Liveliness Training workshop scheduled for july the 30th at the heart to heart healing center and it's called a Liveness Training. It's a four hour workshop and the information can be had through the heart to heart healing center.

00:12:59.620 - 00:13:21.990

And what I essentially do is I help people go through the process of what it spells out for them to feel alive and what it spells out for them to be involved with their own lives. Let me in here for a minute, Everybody has difficulties, everybody

00:13:21.990 - 00:13:42.850

has problems. What prompts a person to find the problems severe enough state to seek you out? Uh Sometimes it is because they have been at a length of time. They have been groping and struggling and trying to work out themselves and then they say I need

00:13:42.850 - 00:14:06.880

help and then they come to me and usually the people that I see are not severely disturbed. People, usually the people that I see are people that really want to do something about that they want, they really want to change and they don't know how and

00:14:06.880 - 00:14:26.780

I'm not pretentious enough to say that I know how. But when you put something through another person and you and you feed back to people um you hear something else about yourself and that's what I'm all about now. What is the heart of hearts the healing

00:14:26.780 - 00:14:54.060

center? And are you part of the center first of all, what is it? It's a group of very dedicated professionals that have gotten together being wanting to present a holistic form of helping that dedicated professionals. We have a medical director that's an acupuncturist. Also Western trained

00:14:54.070 - 00:15:15.080

an M. D. We have three different types of massage therapists. They have different forms. So depending sometimes which you might want to have a little bit more intense work. Physical body work. Sometimes you want to have it softer. Sometimes you want to have it very healing.

00:15:15.090 - 00:15:38.630

And these people present all these forms. We have a person that works as it's called the unicorn method. It's a form of therapy and it goes inside of a person helping them find their own truth. We have somebody that does a beautiful woman that does facials

00:15:38.640 - 00:16:05.450

and aromatherapy along with that and healing sounds. We have a what is it a manager. Somebody that keeps us honest and keeps us in line which we definitely need and we have another psychotherapist. She just joined in and myself and we even have a channeler and

00:16:05.460 - 00:16:27.120

a writer available. So it's a comprehensive type of. Your daughter is involved and your daughter is a medical director. She is, yes, she is the empty. Alright. We're gonna pause right here. That's the study of stadium stadium. Let the studio bring the public a public service

00:16:27.120 - 00:16:59.010

announcement. But then sean tolerant Osmond and I will come back and we'll talk more about the heart to hearts healing center. I think you'll find it very interesting. So we'll be back in just one minute alcohol and other drugs don't discriminate. They're equal opportunity destroyers. Yeah.

00:16:59.690 - 00:17:28.430

Imagine if nature packaged its products as wastefully as man. Fortunately nature doesn't because packaging already accounts for nearly a third of the garbage in our landfills. So buy products with less packaging for more ideas on what you can do. Call us High back coming back to

00:17:28.430 - 00:17:44.750

this edition of Sonoma County in the 90s at the on location I should say at the lovely Sonoma County airport restaurant. It's called Delaney's grill and cafe Neil, lovely place And there are hosts. So we wanted to be sure to mention that haven't been out here.

00:17:44.760 - 00:18:06.680

Come on out to the airport and enjoy the sort of the steakhouse for the mediterranean flavor of food. My guest on this edition of Sonoma County in the nineties is chantel Osmond and she is among other things, a licensed social worker. Why? That's so difficult. But

00:18:06.680 - 00:18:21.540

it's a lovely title and she is also a counselor at the heart to heart healing center here in santa rosa. And this is primarily what we're talking about. We left, we talked about the center itself and that you were a part of it. What other kinds

00:18:21.550 - 00:18:46.590

of, if you call them healers are at the center. Well, as I really talked about, they are massage therapists. There are a person that does facials, there is a channel are involved and a writer and our majorly our manager that keeps us honest, that keeps us

00:18:46.590 - 00:19:13.400

in line unicorn method person, which I'm beginning to learn about. These are new people And um, another psychotherapist that I've spoken to shortly, but all lovely, beautiful people that have all healing in mind. And we work with each other. The most wonderful part about that is

00:19:13.400 - 00:19:38.390

is been a lifelong dream of mine to be involved in a dedicated group of people that form a community that work together and care for each other. And we work out on everything. And I've been involved initially in helping to start the program? Um, In your

00:19:38.390 - 00:20:00.260

voice. I detect a slight accent. Yes. Where are you from? I was born raised in Germany. Yes. I was. How old when you came over here? I was 20 years old and I didn't speak a word of English then I've been here ever since you were

00:20:00.260 - 00:20:14.240

educated. You told me earlier you were educated. I believe it was in Washington. Yes. University of Washington Washington. Yeah, I got my master's degree in social work at the University of Washington. Now I know you've been in a successful practice and stopped it. Which you told

00:20:14.240 - 00:20:36.200

me earlier she has been on a successful practice and stopped. I shouldn't say she has been. She is now why did you move to the santa rosa area? Oh, I love the people. I love being in Sonoma County. It's the climate. It's the air, it's the

00:20:36.200 - 00:20:59.290

people. It's the beautiful hills. It's the ocean nearby. I mean I could go on and on how beautiful it is. Plus the beautiful group of friends, healers here. So it is like a family for me it's like a dream come true having a family being in

00:20:59.290 - 00:21:22.990

a beautiful magnificent setting. Speaker for the county Chamber of Commerce. Oh, I'm available for that. I love the way you discussed the amenities of the county. I love it. Lots of folks who want to come here. What about this? A keto. You talk to me about

00:21:23.000 - 00:21:43.250

this and I don't know what it is and also whatever it is. Do you teach it or take it both? Actually, I um I keto as it is pronounced. It's a japanese non violent martial art which is based and love and harmony. It's a self defense

00:21:43.260 - 00:22:00.210

mechanism or a system that teaches people how to stand up for themselves in a nonviolent way. So when you respond to somebody you don't have to be angry. You don't have to be violent. You just have to step aside and use their energy and let them

00:22:00.210 - 00:22:24.840

go telling me Letting them go, meaning they roll, you're telling me that people over 50 can show each other around on the floor and not break their bones. Well, first of all, um the way we teach that it's a very, very safe environment is we teach

00:22:24.850 - 00:22:42.780

basics on grounding and centering so you can stay in your body so you can feel your body and it's very safe to learn it that way. And, and then we slowly teach people how to roll backwards and then forwards and everybody needs to get familiar and

00:22:42.780 - 00:22:56.380

comfortable with the ground. You know, we are earth beings, so it's nice to be very comfortable with that ground and with that earth And I've done it for 10 years. So I know really how to teach it. As a matter of fact, I'm going to teach

00:22:56.380 - 00:23:19.160

a class when I was in Sonoma State, you know college, then university. Now I took 22 different courses. I took novice boxing for two quarters and I took beginning judo for two quarters and I was never so bruised in my life. The only boxer that was

00:23:19.160 - 00:23:32.270

small enough to box with me was 100 and £25 national champion and he made a box, you know, punching back out of me and then when I get into the judo, I was flying all over the air and that was, that was what 40 years ago,

00:23:32.280 - 00:23:50.750

I would have tried to do that now. Today, I'm sure I'd crack up everything. Well, you know, I could actually show you, but I'm wearing a dress. But uh, it is really becoming friendly with the ground and aikido is, is really not used to hurt anybody

00:23:50.760 - 00:24:13.630

ever. It was um founded by the founder, which whose name is Mario shiba for the purpose of teaching people positive self defense and standing up for yourself and that you don't have to fight in order to stand up for yourself that it is a human, right?

00:24:14.230 - 00:24:32.980

And oh, I'm sure it's fun to fight. And you know, and I think when you're really not that much fun, well not to me, but you gotta headgear on and it's not too bad And it has all its value. It's very valuable for different stages. We're

00:24:32.980 - 00:24:57.100

not just one being, you know, we have different stages in life that we address. You talked a moment ago, a little bit about why would a person 50, 60 years old want to take it? Well, the real reason I would think would be to get centered

00:24:57.110 - 00:25:14.160

because you, you need to be in your body and to be aware everything. Life is so fast and so multiple now. So it's very good to stay centered and be knowing that you are in your body. Aikido teaches you that. So you get a security, you

00:25:14.170 - 00:25:41.870

get a safety and you get a vibrant alive nous by knowing that you are inside your body at the healing center and the training center, it's actually called heart spiral that you're accepting new clients in either area. Of course, that's what I'm here for. I love

00:25:41.870 - 00:26:13.410

to have new clients. I love to play with new people. It's very important to do it. Yeah. And with your kindness very much and I and it's been a lot of people have talked about doing holistic health centers and and it's a lot happening here in

00:26:13.410 - 00:26:30.840

the community. And that's also why I picked the community because the climate for this is right. People are much more open here to healing than they are. Where I have been. One thing I need to do right now. Your phone number, how people can reach you

00:26:30.850 - 00:26:56.630

reach that. My phone number is 5-49640 52464. And that's the heart to heart healing center. And even if people inquire regarding Aikido, it's all there because that's where I'm attached. I'm attached to the healing center even though detachment I practice, but I'm attached to the healing

00:26:56.630 - 00:27:12.230

center, you're no neophyte to this whole field because you have been in practice in Stockton County for quite some number of years. Right? Well, I was, I'm in private practice for seven years, but I've been there for 16. I used to be a social work director

00:27:13.510 - 00:27:30.920

and I was very, or I'm still connected to the community and I still love the community, but it is time for a change. Well, it's, I mean, the reason I stress that I want the audience to realize that this certainly is no lark with you. Certainly

00:27:30.940 - 00:27:51.830

hoping that you and your aikido, I believe it's pronounced. How long have you been involved with that? 10 years? 10 years. And I have a second degree black belt in aikido. Second degree. Uh huh. Yeah. You're dangerous. No, no, no, no, no. You are dangerous. No,

00:27:52.360 - 00:28:12.390

A second degree black belt in anything. I once met. A second degree black belt in judo when he practically killed me. Well, maybe, but it's not a killer art. It's a harmony. So the higher the belts, the gentler one becomes, that's good. That's another view. It

00:28:12.390 - 00:28:26.890

is the more open you are. And the more you learn about a minute and I want to be sure to get this over. How can people get in touch with you? We can give that number again if you like. I'm at the heart to heart healing

00:28:26.890 - 00:28:51.290

center. And that number is 5 to 4964524964. And I'll get you in touch with it and they can ask for you. They can ask for me. Well, they can ask for any of the other practitioners and they'll get in touch with me. Yeah, chantal. This has

00:28:51.290 - 00:29:07.610

been this has been unique. You know, because we have not met anyone who was working in this particular field. So I want to thank you for being my guest. And as things move along better and you've been here a little longer, we'll have you back and

00:29:07.610 - 00:29:24.980

talk more about it. Thank you for inviting me. It's a pleasure. My pleasure. You always a pleasure. Thanks. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we've been talking to chantel Osmond and she is a right now here. She's a counselor at the heart to Heart healing center. This
