Change … growth … transformation …
“Change means we’re always beginners in some ways. We need to ask for wisdom and courage. We get it by listening, by praying, by meditating. When we ask, our Higher Power will teach us to be part of good changes.” – from Keep it Simple, by James Jennings
As of Friday, September 12, I will be providing Reiki healing sessions at Lotus of Life Chiropractic in downtown Decatur, GA. The office is only a mile or so outside the Atlanta city limits, adjacent to Agnes Scott College, and within walking distance to MARTA. Drs. Jamie Galperin, D.C and Liliana Warner, D.C are excited to have me work in their practice office and feel that Reiki is a natural complement to their subluxation-based chiropractic care that incorporates the release and integration of energy through a technique called BGI (Bio-Geometric Integration).
The move to Lotus of Life will allow me more time and flexibility to meet with clients. It will also allow me to grow in my Reiki journey. Drs. Jamie and Liliana facilitate regular talks on chiropractic and wellness topics, and I plan to join them to talk about the “energetic body” and health benefits of Reiki. Sharing knowledge is a passion of mine, and in early 2009, I also plan to provide Usui Levels 1 & 2 Reiki training so that others can learn this healing technique to share with themselves and their loved ones.
My longer-term dream is to provide a once-monthly Reiki “clinic”, where I can gather my Reiki colleagues to provide 10-15 minute “mini” treatments to the public for free. The local and global mission work I’ve done has exposed me to the ongoing suffering in the world. I don’t dare to presume that world peace is literally in my hands, but Reiki can help people become more relaxed, emotionally centered and increase physical comfort, which is a pretty good start if you ask me!
Many thanks to Dr. Lynn for allowing me to use her treatment room for the past few months at Candler Park Chiropractic. If it was not for her asking me to provide Reiki to one of her clients because she felt so strongly it would help, Dragonfly Reiki may never have unfurled its wings. Dr. Lynn and I look forward to partnering together on Reiki-related events in the future.
Onward and upward!

hey Dana – looking forward to corresponding with you more personally than with Meetup posts – I really admire your first-class website – helps make us all feel more truly understood in what we do when it’s presented so nicely…
my own Reiki practice has been significantly about education all these years…as it continues to be, no doubt for us all…
when we have an e-mail connection, I’ll send you some pictures of the healing space in Blue Ridge…
well-wishes…

Hi, Carol
I’m also a reiki master, and try to connect and make friends with other reiki people.
