Anita and Reiki

I discovered Reiki through a close friend. This friend was trained in Reiki Level I while she was going through Breast Cancer. Reiki brought much calm and peace into this person’s life during a very stressful time. This friend is alive and well to this very day. She graciously provided a Reiki session for me during one of my visits to stay with her and her family. The experience was intriguing! As she continued to share her experiences, I chose to explore further.

It was not until about three years later that the opportunity to learn Reiki appeared and seemed to fit well in my life. This was about a year and a half after my move to San Diego and during my exploration of different Yoga Studios in the area. The Soul of Yoga in Encinitas, CA was offering a training. I had taken several classes at this studio. This studio’s strong adherence to a spiritual approach in all that they do is what resonated strongly with me. As a result it made complete sense to join this studio in their offering of Reiki Level I in the spring of 2009 and then again Reiki Level II in the fall of 2009.

I completed my Reiki Master Certification through the Soul of Yoga and Tranquility Retreats in 2010.  Tranquility Retreats was developed by Alisha Olivier who was affiliated with the Soul of Yoga.  Alisha has been a powerful mentor in my life.  In addition to my Reiki Master Attunement Alisha also trained me in Yinki® which is the use of Reiki with Yin Yoga.

I have been providing Reiki services since my Reiki Level II attunement and have received fabulous responses.  My Yinki® classes have also received positive reviews.
