Exhale. Day Spa
Pay it Forward this Holiday Season Wellness Programs for First Responders, Teachers and Seniors
A
s the holiday season approaches, so do heightened stress levels. Family coming in from out of town. Meals to plan. Gifts to buy. Year-end reports on deadline and our kids on winter break. The combination of it all can certainly have even the most organized planner needing an escape to take a deep breath and EXHALE. Exhale. Day Spa is more than just Kim Pursely an ordinary spa. While Exhale. offers a variety of services like massage, skin care, waxing, lash extensions, reiki and a variety of wellness treatments, Kim also had a vision to give back and show her gratitude to those that sacrifice so much for our communities. Exhale. offers exclusive wellness programs to first responders and teachers, as well as the local senior community. These programs are free to sign up for and offer exclusive discounts and complimentary treatments monthly. Exhale.’s Healing Heroes program is offered to all first responders, active and retired, including Police, Fire, Medical and Military Veterans. Kim grew up in a family of Law Enforcement and Corrections and her dad is a Veteran.
She knows firsthand the sacrifices made behind the scenes and created Healing Heroes to say thank you. Tender Touch is offered to those 65 and up. When Kim’s grandmother was ill with Alzheimer’s, her mom was taking care of her. During the many phases and all the doctors’ appointments Kim realized how little tender loving touch was being received by our senior community and wanted to find a way to offer healing touch. This inspired the Tender Touch program. Kim says, “There’s always time for hugs and TLC at Exhale.” If you’re a Teacher or work in the Scotts Valley or SLV School Districts, be sure to sign up for the Community Hero program. Exhale.’s Community Hero program was inspired as Kim volunteered in the parent club of her daughter’s
school and seeing the heart and soul that goes into every day of creating a bright future for our kids. Exhale. is happy to help with fundraisers and offers special promotions for teacher appreciation week, homecoming week and end-of-year celebrations. Being a mom of a teen she also customized Exhale.’s Teen skin care program. Kim says “Because if other teens are like mine, sometimes hearing the same advice from someone other than mom just might help our teens wash their face better. Teens struggle with so much. Clear clean skin builds confidence. The Teen program is our way of helping. We take the K.I.S.S approach. Keep it Super Simple!” Exhale. Day Spa is your premier relaxation destination for Scotts Valley and San Lorenzo Valley, offering the highest quality of wellness and beauty services for both men and women. One of Exhale’s clients described Exhale. as having “small town charm with big city services.” Kim Pursley,
Start each day with a grateful heart!

What You Need to Know About Living Trusts • Wills Asset Protection • Estate Planning Avoid Probate — Take Control! Wills alone DO NOT avoid probate! Learn how to pass your estate to your loved ones quickly and without court intervention. Are you confused about the differences between a Will and a Living Trust? Wondering if you even need either of them? You’re not alone! After all, you are single or hold the title to your home with your partner or spouse, isn’t that enough? You might be just starting out; have only
modest assets and not yet own a home, what do you need estate planning documents for? What is the difference between a revocable living trust and a will? Which is best suited for you? Revocable living trusts and wills both allow you to name beneficiaries for your property. Beyond that, they are useful for different purposes. For example, most people use
living trusts to avoid probate and transfer asset titles to your heirs more efficiently. But living trusts are more complicated to make and you can’t use a living trust to name an executor or guardians for your children. Even if you decide that you need a living trust, you will also need a will to name guardians for minor children. If you don’t make a will or a living
trust, your property will be distributed according to the laws of your state. With a Will or Living Trust you can ensure your assets are distributed according to your wishes and in a timely fashion. Find out the many differences and what’s best for your particular circumstances. ••• About presenter Attorney Julie King: Pierce King is a professional law corporation www.PierceKingLaw.com Julie King has been a practicing attorney for over 30 years.

CASA of Santa Cruz County Seeking Volunteers
E
ach year nearly 400 children in Santa Cruz County are involved in the Juvenile Dependency Care System (foster care) because they have been abused or neglected. The cases with the h i g h e s t needs are referred to CASA to be matched with a Volunteer Court Appointed Special Advocate. CASA trains and supports these volunteers as they commit to serve a child or
youth throughout the time they have an active case — sometimes up to two years or more. Volunteers are sworn in as Officers of the Court at the end of CASA’s 35-hour training and then choose a child or youth to serve whom they will spend a few hours a week getting to know. The volunteer gathers information from everyone involved in the child’s life, including family members, social workers and teachers; and learns and reports to the Court about the child’s unique needs. Court Appointed Special Advocates are an important part of the child’s team and are often one of the only consistent adults in their lives while they’re in the
Juvenile Dependency System (foster care). Although there is a great need for bilingual and male volunteers, people from all cultures and professions - and of all ethnic and educational backgrounds are encouraged to learn more. Another critical need right now is for volunteers who wish to work with children ages birth to five years old. These volunteers work with the entire family to make a significant positive impact. People interested in learning more can sign up to attend an information meeting at casaofsantacruz.org/ signup, or contact CASA’s Outreach and Recruitment Manager, Cita Rasul at
cita@casaofsanta cruz.org or (831) 7612956, ext. 102. ••• Upcoming Information meetings are: • W e d n e s d a y , November 6, 5:30 p.m. at CASA, located at 813 Freedom Blvd. in Watsonville. • Saturday, November 16, 10:00 a.m. at CASA, located at 813 Freedom Blvd. in Watsonville. • Tuesday, November 12, 6:00 p.m. at Live Oak Family Resource Center, located at 1740 17th Avenue in Santa Cruz.
