"The Wonder and Stress of Family Life"

Families are wonderful and very, very difficult things. One does not have to look far to find stories of warm family upbringings and well-launched children. On the other hand, one can also readily find stories of abuse, neglect and other dark things. Why is family life so fraught and is there anything on can do about it?

Upcoming Reiki Classes

Reiki, 1st & 2nd Levels

Are you ready to learn a simple practice that can bring you deep relaxation, lower your stress level, ease discomfort, and energize your body’s own healing systems on all levels - physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual? Then you’re ready for Reiki, a Japanese practice of inner focus that stimulates the autonomic nervous system to produce all of these effects. 

Join Reiki Master Teacher Lindsay Bates for “Being Reiki: Initiation and Instruction in Levels 1 and 2 of Usui/Holy Fire® Reiki.” This class will be held online on two consecutive Sundays, April 23 and April 30, 2023, from 10 AM to 6 PM Central Time.

The fee for this 2-day intensive class is $450 and includes your manual, your Certificate of Completion, and instruction in a spiritual and practical practice that will begin to benefit you on your first day.

Already completed the work for the Second Degree (Level)? Are you interested in advancing to Reiki Master Practitioner/Teacher? Please let me know. If interest is high enough, I’ll schedule a Master class in late Spring/early Summer.

If you’re interested in any of these classes but the timing won’t work, please let me know. Depending upon numbers and the flexibility of others, I may add a class or rearrange some dates to serve as many people as possible. As Mrs. Takata often said, “Reiki should be as common as aspirin!” I want to help more people start practicing!
