Ring in the new year with seasoned Reiki Master KAREN MEYER, assisted by STEPHANIE JOYCE on the gong, as we learn the fundamentals of Reiki. Learn why Einstein’s words “Everything is vibration” and “Everything is energy” are the language of Reiki practitioners worldwide.
Learn the basics of Reiki and experience it hands-on, discover the healing power of sound, the healing properties of instruments such as the gong, the crystal singing bowl, and tuning forks, and redefine scent as vibration as we examine the special properties of different essential oils. Then, immerse yourself in the deep relaxation of a sound bath with a guided meditation.
Participants are asked to wear comfortable clothing and bring a yoga mat and any other props for comfort with restorative poses. Chairs will be provided for those who prefer to sit.
