Group Reiki to Heal Your Mind & Spirit
Thursday
June 18th
6:30pm to 7:30pm
$50/person
5 spots only
Rest your body as you heal your mind and spirit.
Join Dawn for this restorative, loving session. You will receive Reiki either in person at the studio or via distance healing through Zoom.
This is intentionally a small group setting of 5 so everyone will receive 10 minutes of Reiki.
(I also do private sessions for $80 if you want to book one.)
This is a "Mental Reprogramming" session where you will release old, negative patterns to create space for the new. You will move forward by repeating affirmations to build energy for the life you want.
I love this practice! It is very healing.
