About the practice

Two people. One practice.

Pattern recognition meets graduate-level integrative health and award-winning bodywork. The room reads both at once, because most lives arrive holding both at once.

An integrative holistic wellness practice held by two people. Most practices pick a lane. Evidence-minded or mystical. Clinical or alternative. Analytical or intuitive. We do not. The room reads the body and the inner life together because that is how they arrive. Anything else is a workflow problem dressed up as a philosophy.

Omnist by training, plain by habit. Fifty plus years of comparative study between us, sustained, not collected. One master's, one championship medal, one set of credentials each kept current. No lineage names on the public page because some material is meant to be carried, not advertised. What you receive in the room is the work, not a brand built on top of it.

A wooden desk under a brass oil lamp. On one side an anatomical spine, hot stones, an amber tincture bottle. On the other a leather-bound journal, a fountain pen, an inkwell. Two practices in one frame.

The crossover

Two disciplines. One way we work.

One side of the work reads bodies, structure, and what tension stores. The other reads habits, choices, and the story a week keeps confirming. Lost in the Astral lives where those lines stop being separate. The desk holds both at once on purpose.

Scott Hinojosaknown to the work as Sage

Pattern reader  ·  Comparative scholar  ·  SRP & 9-Self counsel

Scott reads patterns. The kind people thought they had hidden. The kind a week confirms three times before anyone says it out loud.

Thirty plus years of comparative religion and cultural analysis, sustained, not collected. The training that shows up in the room is mentalism (the craft of close observation, not stage tricks), comparative scholarship across many sincere paths, and the kind of pattern recognition that comes from spending decades watching how people choose, repeat themselves, and quietly disagree with the story they are telling out loud.

He is omnist in practice. Where a question asks something that can only be carried by a living tradition's initiate, he says so plainly and refers accordingly. Honest practice means knowing which calls are his to make and which are not.

Bodywork  ·  Integrative health  ·  SRP & 9-Self counsel

Kacie reads bodies. What the shoulders have been carrying, what the sleep refuses to do, what the appetite has stopped asking for. Bodywork is the door. It is also the diagnostic.

Master's in Integrative Health Care Sciences from the American College of Healthcare Sciences. BA in Health and Wellness. Certified researcher. At the 2024 Open Massage Championship Oregon she took gold in Wellness Massage, bronze in Sports, and bronze Overall. The medal is real and so is the work it represents: licensed, structural, and built on twenty plus years of comparative cultural and spiritual study running underneath it.

She does not treat symptoms in isolation. The body reports on a system that has been carrying weight the mind has been too polite to acknowledge. She reads what it keeps doing, ties it to depth psychology and academic herbalism, and works the harder edges (shadow, what people hide from themselves) when the room is ready for it. Bodywork stays the licensed practice. Everything else sits beside it, not in place of it.

Between us

Fifty plus years of study.

Not a wider vocabulary. The ability to recognize which framework actually fits the question in front of us, and to reach for it instead of forcing every situation through whichever lens we know best.

Body

Structural & integrative health

Anatomy, structure, depth-psychological reading of what tension stores. Graduate-level at ACHS. Championship-grade in practice.

Mind

Pattern & observation craft

Mentalism, depth psychology, sociology, folklore. Thirty plus years of comparative work watching how people actually choose and repeat themselves.

Spirit

Comparative religion

Sustained study across many sincere paths. Omnist by training, not by sticker. Respect for where each tradition lives and what it asks of a carrier.

Living world

Herbalism & ecology

Academic herbalism on the body side. Comparative cultural and ancient-world study on the mind side. The plant and the symbol arrive together in the room.

We do not guess. We look until it is clear, then we build the work around what we see. That combination is why people find us after everything else has failed.

Guardrails

What the practice is not.

Lost in the Astral is not a clinical or medical practice, with the exception of Kacie's licensed massage therapy. We do not provide licensed therapy, psychiatry, or medical treatment. SRP Pastoral Counseling is pastoral by definition; it is not mental-health counseling.

Our services are complementary. We work alongside licensed clinical professionals, never in place of them. Growth depends on the client's effort. We give you a clear read and an honest mirror. You do the work.

If you are in crisis, contact a licensed provider or call the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Where this goes

If the way we work makes sense, the next step is simple.

You do not need to agree with every word on the page. You need to know whether you are ready for plain seeing, clean feedback, and work that does not hide behind a softer label.
