Description

The Upstart Spring: Esalen and the Human Potential Movement: The First Twenty Years"The first responsible account of an important, uniquely American happening worthwhile reading for anyone who wants to piece together the social undercurrents of the '60s" Robert Marquand, Christian Science Monitor "A charming, gossipy multiple biography of the curious gurus who spawned Esalen . . . a complex story, but a sequential one nonetheless, with feuds and psychic shoot outs, games of capture the flag and smell the roses." Arthur Hough, San

"The first responsible account of an important, uniquely American happening - worthwhile reading for anyone who wants to piece together the social undercurrents of the '60s"
--Robert Marquand, Christian Science Monitor

"A charming, gossipy multiple biography of the curious gurus who spawned Esalen . . . a complex story, but a sequential one nonetheless, with feuds and psychic shoot-outs, games of capture the flag and smell the roses."
--Arthur Hough, San Francisco Chronicle

"Upstart Spring tells Esalen's riveting, unfinished story - even-handedly, entertainingly, with sympathy, and yet holding little back."
--David Toolan, Commonwealth

"An absolute delight: brimming with juicy gossip, and as carefully crafted as a page-turner novel. And it has substance, the gift of a therapist who also happens to be a cultural historian with a good eye for the telling meta-detail."
--Sandy McDonald, New Age Journal

"Walt Anderson has the requisite experience, humor, and affection (if not detachment, since Esalen teaches, indeed proves, that detachment is a universal impossibility) to carry off a wonderful account."
--Stewart Brand, Co-Evolution Quarterly

"A wonderful read, consistently entertaining on several levels."
--Michael Rossman, Associate for Humanistic Psychology Newsletter

"A superb wrap-up of a notable influence on our popular culture." --Rita Fink, Pacific Sun

Great coverage
Color: purple
I had the aerosol spray version of this and did not like it. Especially after I used it the second time and it stuck down spraying the entire container out. This one is so much easier to control and gives a lot nicer coverage. Pretty glitter for my daughter's hair and the smell is not overwhelming. Definitely recommend this.

Do not buy this product!
Color: purple
I use a hairspray on a regular basis. This spray is awful ! It supposed to give a glitzy effect, instead my hair looked like I did not wash my hair for a long time. I applied it after I styled my hair. My style was ruined:( It is impossible to brush your hair after:( unless you wash your hair and remove this hairspray. Please do not waste your money on it!!!

Shining Star glitter spray
Color: Silver, Color: Silver
I tried the Shining Star Glitter Spray and I love it ✨ It gives a beautiful shimmer without feeling sticky, and the glitter looks soft and natural. Perfect for adding a little glow to your skin for any occasion. Overall, it’s perfect if you want a little extra shine for everyday or special occasions, Definitely a fun product to have!
