RESONANT REIKI
Reiki 1 Retreat
August 11-13, 2023

August 11th evening to 13th afternoon, $150
Come to western Catskills for a beautiful weekend retreat for an introduction to the Reiki healing system. Reiki therapy is a hands-on energy work healing practice that incorporates Buddhist principles of compassion and love. With reiki, you will learn to empower the non-physical aspects of self (spirit, qi, aura) to influence the energy of the client. Students will receive a reiki attunement (an empowering and healing transmission of the reiki energy), learn meditation skills and practice giving healing sessions. This class is open to participants of all levels of experience in healing modalities.
The retreat will be in the town of Franklin, NY in the western Catskills near Oneonta. Guests are invited to camp out on our beautiful property. You may reserve one of our spare tents or bring your own. This site is best suited to those comfortable with rustic camping without running water and using an outhouse. For those that would like more comforts, you are welcome to rent an AirBnB in the vicinity. One communal meal is planned for Saturday evening. Other meals can be prepared communally or separately depending on guest interest.
For those taking mass transit, rides from the Delhi, NY bus station can be arranged on Friday evening. https://trailways.com/schedules/bus-from-new-york-ny-to-delhi-ny/?language=en
