Ray-Key and Relax
Reiki is a Japanese treatment for relaxation and stress reduction that can promote physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. It is typically considered part of the broader fields of bodywork (along with massage) and alternative treatment methods (along with acupuncture and other forms of energy work). Basically, it is when a Reiki-attuned practitioner prays over, lays hands on, and works with the energy fields and/or chakras of someone who exchanges a positive form of energy (usually money) for the positive Reiki energy.
I feel strongly that all life, all energy, and all healing come from God and that as a Reiki practioner, I am just a vessel for that energy. My Reiki Master and Karuna Reiki Master is Shelly Wilson, and I have been attuned at the Reiki I, II, and III (Master) levels as well as attuned as a Karuna Reiki Master. Typically, a Reiki session lasts 30-45 minutes (all-inclusive), and my charge for a regular Reiki session of this length is $45. I also offer Relaxation add-ons, additional Reiki work, and Shamanic Journeying for an additional cost per service.
For the month of January, I am offering an introductory special for your first Reiki session of only $15! This does not apply to second and subsequent sessions. I am also offering a referral special for January--refer 5 people who get a Reiki session and your next session after they complete theirs is FREE!
We also offer other relaxation treatments based on Ayurvedic principles, as well as guided meditation, gentle yoga, and wellness consultations and plan to have a wellness retreat after our grand opening.

Home, Home on the Web
Finally, we are getting our website up and running. Please bare with us as we work over the next couple of weeks to make it fully functional. We plan to have information about each of our services, a calendar of events, and a way for you to register for classes, workshops, and retreats online. Our goal is to be as user-friendly as possible.
While we prepare for our grand opening, which is looking like March 1st, we want you to know that we are here for you now. We take limited appointments for Reiki and relaxation treatments, we are available to work with your youth group at school or church, and we will be teaching a FREE weekly marriage and relationship class, Laugh Your Way to a Better Marriage, starting Wednesday, January 22, 2014, at Anniston First United Methodist Church! This class is for married people or those who hope to be married one day and want to have the best relationship possible.
We are also thinking of having regular cooking nights in our gluten-free heathy kitchen once our center opens. You would come and bring a certain amount of money and then prepare dinners to freeze for your family to eat. We find a lot of people say they would eat healthier if they had more time or had healthy meals they could just heat up. There will be options for this, but all meals will be Gluten Free! We will announce more about this exciting option, as well as our plans for a community garden soon!

From "Services" to "Center"
In just a couple of weeks, we are scheduled to close on the purchase of our physical location. As we make this transition from Tree of Life Wellness Services to Tree of Life Wellness Center, we have been working to finalize details of our website building, programming, and open house weekend planning. We will have an Open House the last week in February, if all goes well, and our official Grand Opening the first weekend in March.
I decided to start keeping this blog and will highlight our different services and workshops and promote specials here.
The first service I want to tell you about is T'ai Chi. We will have a weekly Saturday T'ai Chi class. The time is still TBD but will be announced soon. These one-hour classes are taught by Brian Dunagan. Together with Brian, participants explore traditional temple style T’ai Chi, which is integrated with Qigong (Breath Art, or Chinese Yoga) and standing/seated guided meditation. T’ai Chi is a wonderful way to express yourself and is known to increase circulation, lower blood pressure, and improve balance. Wear comfortable clothes to move in and have a willingness to have fun.

Our Open House class will be offered for the suggested price of $10.00 per lesson (or whatever you can afford). Regular classes, which will begin the following week, will be $100 for 10 classes. If your purchase this 10-class pass by 3/1/2014, you will get a FREE Reiki Session (value $45).
Stay tuned for more information on our Open House event and our services. Also, you can "Like" us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/ALTreeofLife
If you are interested in our T'ai Chi classes, vote for the time that works best for you, as we will make that decision very soon.
