Shoden (Reiki I) Training - In Person


Sometimes life is like hugging a cactus ✨🌵✨

The hardest part of life isn’t always what’s happening internally.

It’s how people treat you:

🌵 The disrespect.

🌵 The misunderstandings that implode.

🌵 The disappointments of life.

🌵 The love you wanted but never received.

🌵 When you show up for others with an open heart but only get that same toxic behavior again and again.

At its heart, Reiki is a practice of compassion, presence and self-healing.

It teaches you how not to harden when life is prickly.

Learning Reiki is an energetic practice that can help you when you are navigating pain, trauma, conflict or difficult people.
