Usui Reiki Level I Training & Certification
2023-07-29 10:00 - 15:00
Back back popular demand, Altruce will be leading another Reiki training and certification.
“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: $150
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.

Hatha Yoga (Outdoors)
2023-09-12 19:00 - 20:00
Taking time to honor ourselves by restoring balance in the mind and body with a guided Hatha Yoga Flow. Hatha can be broken down to “Ha” meaning sun/light and “Tha” meaning moon/dark.
In this practice, we heat the core, our power source, and send energy and strength through our entire body, while also stretching each muscle and cooling the body down to achieve a deep meditation.
If weather permits, this event will be outside. Otherwise, it will be moved indoors to our large great room.
