Today we’d like to introduce you to Apollonia.
Hi Apollonia, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
I came to Atlanta when I was 30 years old, from growing up in New York City as an immigrant from Argentina with a mystical South American upbringing training. I fell in love with the nature, and began to study spiritually through yoga, Buddhism and deeper philosophies such as Alice Bailey and Eckhart Tolle.
I assisted my old-time friend Candace Apple to open Phoenix and Dragon Bookstore, and went on to birth the Center for Inner Knowing in Sandy Springs nearby. A long 25-year stay at Barfield Road in Sandy Springs created a nonprofit school, awareness and body detox center, focused on growing understanding, the love and care that needs to be grown in relationships, and the clarity of the body to be able to express the heart towards purpose and destiny. Through weekend and weeklong courses, we were lucky enough to produce dynamic group and transformational work that reached people from all over the world.
As Covid passed through, the structures moved into a more private setting in a place we now call “Casa,” which means home in Spanish. We train mindfulness, quality of attention, understanding of each other and heart openings. Consciousness work done through groups online that open to higher frequencies and other dimensions, all for the purpose of the inner alignment and full expression into the beauty of fulfillment through creative mission.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It has been a labor of love, creating an organization, staff and community, living alongside each other devoted to service. Covid was our greatest challenge. It shut down and shifted our clientele from personal experiential contact in large courserooms, with dance and song and transformational, shamanic movements that can best be filled by the body in person ~ to the challenge of communicating a consciousness frequency through the air to those on a screen. We were not prepared for this and still stumble in opening the ingenuity that it will take to do the work online.
We’ve been impressed with Awareness Studios , but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
We specialize in learning and studying what needs to truly be met in the shadows and the light of a human being in the human experience for the purpose of the connected energy that can infinitely feed us “prolonged entertainment” as the challenge of building what you love in this world.
I offer consciousness development through coaching and teaching for building purpose, Mission, and growing businesses in life, highlighting empowerment coaching for women and business. I work with clients in individual and classroom settings, both in-person and online, to help them achieve higher consciousness and creativity by moving from the left-brain hemisphere to the right-brain.
It is perhaps the creativity of the right-brain that highlights with people when they visit us and see all the different services we offer ~ our only requirement is that it creates the heart results in someone’s life.
We offer shamanic ceremonies and integration, as well as ketamine therapy with a licensed psychiatrist, to help clients unravel the trauma and knots of the past in order to energize their futures. We also provide astrology readings, ReUnion Kinesiology and Tarot Card readings.
We provide our clients with the latest technologies like the BioCharger®, the IonCleanse Foot Bath® and Mindfulness SoundChair® to facilitate this path to higher consciousness, as well as NAD+ Infusions and Injections that can help give clients the energy to continue breaking old patterns and moving forward to a higher consciousness.
We are in the process of opening a Gestalt Institute of Atlanta where the Buddhist principles of mindfulness, kindness, and care can be re-educated from inside the original expression of us humans together. With gestalt therapy the unconscious energy can be shifted to the heart, directly manifesting Spirit’s passionate desires and concretely changing your life.
We are most proud of continuously working to put in place the deep study of becoming a bodhisattva, one who serves the world. Care, quality of attention, and generosity…the appreciating of the deep beauty that can be reflected from inside a human as the original beautiful child that we were born to listen to in our hearts and be.
Let’s talk about our city – what do you love? What do you not love?
What I love the most are the trees and the beautiful and colorful yards in the spring full of Azaleas, Daffodils, and the smells of Jasmine and the vines of Wisteria. What I like the least is the lack of public transportation to the outer areas.
