There will be time before the ceremony to change into your sweat attire.
This is done with respect and in honor of the traditional ways, to purify, for the promotion and redemption of life and to honor and make relations with grandmother earth and our spiritual life.

People are also welcome to come observe and support without going into the sweat lodge.
To go into the lodge, please bring 1 or 2 towels and appropriate clothes to wear into lodge. Men should wear shorts and women should have long skirt and shirt covering shoulders. Traditionally, you bring a small tobacco offering for the firekeeper and the intercessor.

Usui Reiki Level I Training & Certification
2023-01-28 10:00 - 15:00
“Reiki” is Japanese for “Universal Life Force Energy”. As such, Reiki is a system of natural healing in which the practitioner transmits life force energy (or Qi) into a recipients energy field and body to facilitate healing. This will include a good amount of actual guided practice between the students.
The process of becoming a Reiki practitioner(or master) happens over 3 levels of training. In Reiki Level one, students are initiated into a greater connection to this life energy(through the attunement process) as well as the energy healing principles and precepts that come from the lineage of Dr. Mikao Usui.
In this course we will cover:

What is Reiki?
History of Reiki
Energetic cleanliness and protection
The Reiki Precepts
Self Healing with Reiki
Creative ways to use Reiki to empower ourselves
Offering treatments to others
No prior experience or certification. However this is also ideal for those who have received certifications in the past and want a refresher or more in-depth in person training.

During this workshop each student will receive a Reiki Level One attunement. This allows each student to connect with and channel greater levels of life energy to facilitate healing in oneself and begin to share this energy with others.
Reiki has been known to catalyze profound healings and transformations for many people across the planet on it’s own and it can be utilized to bolster and potentiate all other forms of healing, which makes it an excellent ally to have in your healing tool bag.
There will be a short lunch break so please bring something for a snack during the break. We will provide hot tea.
Cost: $120
Space is limited so a RSVP is required. Register by emailing Altruce.Ashe@gmail.com with the subject line “Reiki Level One”. To hold your spot, a 50% deposit is due at the time of registration, payment details will be shared upon receipt of your registration email.
About Altruce:
Altruce has been practicing and studying different forms of energy and somatic healing practices for the last 10 years. Being introduced to Reiki catalyzed an awakening that led him on a path of self healing and discovery which he continues to traverse every day.
Since then Altruce has offered energy healing workshops at many different events and summer festivals and has taught many in depth Reiki trainings.
Today Altruce is a Reiki Master and apprentice breathworker. He sees clients for private sessions, utilizing breath work, energy healing and parts work facilitation to hold space for rapid healing and transformation.

Come set your intentions for this cycle of this new moon with a slow, restorative practice, allowing yourself time to sink into each posture as they are held for several minutes. Focusing on thoroughly stretching the deep connective tissues, ligaments, joints, and fascia of the body. Gathering with the new moon every month, this practice aims to relax and center. As the dark moon is a time to turn inward and slow down, this practice invites connection with the depths of our beings and energy centers. Come with an open mind, leave with connections and a full heart & soul.
