Testimonials from
students
about their experiences in classes and workshops:

Many different classes and workshops are offered each month
at The Place for Reiki and the schedule changes every three
months. So please stop by often to see what's new.
The schedule listed here only covers the events that are scheduled
three months in advance. I also offer a variety of 2-hour
workshops, classes and meditation and healing circles during
each month, including a Reiki exchange. However, these offerings
are scheduled only about a week in advance. If you would like
to receive notices about these events, please email me at
the-place-for-reiki@earthlink.net
and I will be glad to add you to my email list.
Following the current schedule of events are descriptions
of my monthly meditation and healing circles, and a more detailed
description of the Reiki Circle for Children with Special
Needs that I host monthly. Also, please check out myindividual
healing sessions, called Mind, Body and Soul Sessions.
They provide a unique opportunity for healing in a one-on-one
environment.
If you have any questions, or would like more information
about anything that is offered, please give me a call at 412-920-2911
or send me an email at the-place-for-reiki@earthlink.net.
Please put Reiki on the subject line. I’ll be glad to help
in any way that I can. Hope to see you soon!
Peace and blessings,


Classes and Workshops
 
Healing Attunements
Blockages in your energy system from past trauma,
repressed emotions, unmet needs or expectations and a variety
of other things may manifest in many ways, including: headaches,
back/neck pain, depression, anxiety, and poor self-esteem.
This powerful healing technique releases such blockages so
that you have more energy available to focus on your present
needs and move forward. A group healing circle follows to
help your body acclimate to the changes as the blocks are
released. Class size is limited to 12, so register early to
guarantee your space.
Date: Feb. 4 (Sat.)

The Power of Forgiveness

ourselves stuck in unforgiveness, it can be almost impossible.
This workshop will give you additional insights into the power
of forgiveness, including research findings that document
the benefits of forgiveness for your overall health and well-being.
It may also help you open the door to forgiveness in your
own life, not only forgiveness of others, but of yourself
also. A group healing circle will follow, to assist you in
moving out of the past, and into the power of forgiveness.

first, even though we know that when we are doing well, we
are better able to help those around us? This workshop may

on the bottom of your own priority list, and will hopefully
assist you in changing that pattern, so you can be better
for yourself and for those around you! Open to everyone. Please

who will walk the path with you, sharing
their stories as you share yours, while using the power of

days getting in touch with that Divine Source in a consistent
way to see just what can happen when we open that doorway

Meditation and Healing Circles
The
monthly meditation and healing circles are a great way to
participate in your own healing process. You will participate
in a guided meditation and then experience the power of a
group healing circle to enhance your own spiritual journey
and healing process.
The topic for each circle's guided meditation is different.
Some of the topics in the past have included: Healing the
Wounded Heart, Gratitude, The Gifts, Removing Blocks, Moving
Forward and Peace. By actively participating in the meditations,
you send a strong message to the Universe that you are actively
involved in your own healing and growing process. This then
allows the Universe (God) to kick in its support in an even
more powerful way.
After the meditation, we take time to journal and process
what's come up for participants during the meditation. You
may share or not; do what feels most comfortable for you.
However, there is often a synergy in the sharing process that
enhances what you receive during the meditation.
Once everyone has had the opportunity to share, I do a group
healing circle for everyone. Most Reiki practitioners only
work one-on-one with clients, however, as my Reiki abilities
have evolved, I have been gifted with the ability to do Reiki
on a group of people simultaneously.
During the group healing sessions, participants sit in a
circle as I stand in the middle of the circle, or walk around
the outside of the circle, doing Reiki for everyone in the
circle. There may be times, depending on individual needs,
that I may work on specific individuals; but that choice is
up to God, not me - as I am only the channel.
Once the circle begins, I leave it completely up to my Reiki
guides and my spirit guides to determine what occurs in the
circle. There have been times when loved ones, angels, and
other spiritual beings have joined the circle because they
have messages for one or more of the participants. . Sometimes
I channel the energies of a number of different Native American
spirits and may be guided to use a drum or a rattle; at other
times I begin to channel the voices of these spirits, and
my clients have recognized such languages as Cherokee, Lakota,
and other dialects of the Plains Indians, as well as dialects
from some of the South American cultures. Although neither
my clients nor myself fully comprehend the meaning of the
messages being channeled, everyone agrees that the intensity
of the healing experience is increased whenever this occurs.
Each circle is different, and each person will receive what
he or she most needs at the time they participate. The circles
can be extremely powerful vehicles for personal growth and
healing.
