Group Reiki to Heal Your Mind and Spirit
Thursday, October 29th
6:30pm to 7:30pm
$50/person
4 spots only
With Dawn Piper, Level 3 Tera Mai™ Reiki practitioner
How are your thoughts? Are they kind, gentle & helpful or mean, critical, and judgmental?
If you’re like many people, you might not even realize how negative a lot of your thoughts are - but the good news is that you can start to change this pattern!
Join us for this amazing Reiki session to reprogram your thoughts, release old, negative patterns and create space for new ones so you can be your best. You will move forward and build energy for the life you want.
This group class is only offered in person at the studio. But, I do offer private sessions via distance healing through Zoom. So contact me for a session!
This is intentionally a small group setting of 4 so everyone will receive Reiki for them specifically and as a larger group.
