Reiki (Japanese for “Universal Life Force”) is an ancient, hands-on system of natural healing originating from Asia. Through gentle touch by a practitioner on or off the body, Reiki promotes relaxation and general well being by bringing the body, mind and spirit into balance and alignment. Reiki amplifies the body’s ability to heal itself, and is a gentle and safe way to compliment traditional medicine, or deepen a spiritual practice.

The 1st Saturday of the Month
2:00-3:15pm

Yoga Nidra is an ancient practice extending the state between sleep and awareness where profound relaxation occurs. During this practice, our day to day barriers are lessened or removed, creating a gateway to deeper levels of consciousness. This creates the opportunity for greater physical, mental and emotional relaxation. After some gentle movement, you will be guided through an experience of profound tranquility - all you need to do is lay down and receive.
