Family Business in Santa Monica Robbed by Looters

Donation protected

This weekend has put so much strain on all of us and only added to a problem that Radiance Wellness Spa was already facing due to closures from COVID19.  
Though protests started out as peaceful expressions of injustices, looters took advantage of the opportunity and struck many businesses including 
Radiance Wellness Spa.  Smashing through a glass door and scavenging for items to steal, they left  a physical and emotional trail of destruction. They got away with computers and inventory that included jewelry and crystals (inventory and personal items are not covered by insurance) but more importantly they violated their fellow citizens in the name of violence. 


Due to COVID19, Radiance Wellness Spa  has been shut down since March 17th, 2020. With little to no income coming in these past months, they were already struggling. Radiance is run by mother-daughter Diana Ralys and Kristina Vystartaite (my son Matthew's girlfriend of over 10 years). This wonderful,  family owned business that was created to be a place for healing is now broken. We don’t know when this wonderful little sanctuary, in the heart of the Santa Monica will be able to operate again. 


Sending love and healing to ALL today and every day!
I have faith that we will rebuild our communities, make the changes needed for all citizens and trust in the loving and caring people in the world. 


If you’re in the position to help financially, Diana and her family would greatly appreciate it so they can replace what was taken and rebuild the business and their livelihood. If you’re not, please know that your loving thoughts are just as much appreciated! Please share within your circles if you feel called to do so. 


Thank you!
