About Reiki:
Reiki is ….a gentle non-harmful use of CHI (universal life force) for the purpose of relaxation, relief from pain, to set intention, clear blocks, as a supplement to other therapies, and to promote one’s own intuition and healing. The energy involved in a Reiki treatment is said to be ‘from the Universe,’ rather than the personal energy of the practitioner, and is therefore inexhaustible. Chi has its own “healing intelligence” allowing there to be no “wrong way” or “harm” to be done to one who receives a Reiki treatment. The practitioner is trained to hold space for the person receiving the treatment and therefore focuses an intention of relaxation and healing in the environment of the treatment and directly in the body of the receiver. Reiki can be applied in a hands-on or hands-off application, sitting, standing or lying down, or from a distance. Reiki can be directed by a practitioner to others, or used for self-treatment.
About the Teacher:
Jennifer Dauphinais began her Reiki journey on a therapist’s couch in 1999 and quickly submersed herself education around energy work and healing. She obtained her Usui Reiki certification through Claire Bessinger of Clarity Reiki, and Master-Attunement through Scott Dezotell of Sun Source Healing.One method focused on the traditional facilitation of Reiki as a complimentary therapy to others, while the other focused on fine-tuning one’s inner healing potential. Through these teachers, as well as studying with Master-Teachers of Yoga, Sound Healing, and Native American Medicine, she has discovered commonalities and connections that can provide practitioners with tools for sustaining holistic balance and health. She has been teaching Reiki for five years. She is also a certified Pilates Mat instructor.
