Learn the Ancient Art of Reiki Healing June 8

There are hundreds, even thousands of cases of people being healed through non-traditional means, such as Usui Reiki. Some have even recovered from life-threatening illnesses using alternative therapies. The art of healing through touch is an ancient technique that has continued to thrive even in modern times. This June, you'll have a chance to learn more about this technique and find out how you can practice it.

Healing Through Touch

Go to the Usui Reiki training class on June 8. This is a Level I class for beginners who want to learn how to use this technique to channel energy and use positive forces to heal ailments of all types. Once you complete the class, you will know how to practice Reiki on yourself and on others.

There’s no experience needed to participate in this class, which will cover the history and origin of this ancient art. The class is a combination of lecture, discussion and practical, hands-on application. You will both give and receive a treatment using Reiki techniques. Class costs $175 and lasts all day from 10 am to 6 pm. Go to 2508 Wallace Avenue, and go learn more about energy healing.
