Upcoming Events

New to Reiki?
Bring your questions, experiences, and curiosities. This is an open space to explore Reiki without judgment or expectation.
The evening will be guided by Heather Hovis, “The Midwife of Energy,” whose own Reiki journey has been shaped through devoted study and practice with respected Reiki teachers, including William Lee Rand, President of the International Center for Reiki Training, and Karen Williamson, St. Louis’ “Reiki Mama.”
Reiki is a Japanese technique that uses a channeled, spiritually guided, loving energy for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen life force energy flows through us and is what causes us to be alive.
Reiki works in harmony with all other kinds of treatment, including medical and psychological care. According to William Lee Rand, Reiki decreases recovery time from surgery, improves mental attitude, and reduces unwanted side effects of medications including chemotherapy, radiation, and other medical procedures.
A research study at Hartford Hospital in Hartford, Connecticut indicates that Reiki improved patient sleep by 86%, reduced pain by 78%, reduced nausea by 80%, and reduced anxiety during pregnancy by 94%.

New to Breathwork?
Breathwork is a form of controlled, conscious breathing, incorporating slow, deep breaths, that leads to a greater awareness of our emotions and thoughts; improves our flow of energy; and can improve both physical and mental health. This technique is enhanced by movement, meditation, sound, touch, and emotional release.
By activating the pararsympathetic nervous system, breathwork helps in the following ways:
📣 Reduces stress, anxiety, depression, anger, agitation, and grief
📣 Increases/boosts energy, immunity, mental clarity, focus, and concentration
📣 Lowers blood pressure & increases circulation
📣 Helps heal from trauma & manages post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
📣 Improves digestion, focus, creativity, muscle tone, mood, self-esteem, & sleep
📣 Helps manage pain
📣 Increases performance & lung capacity (for athletics, public speaking, or singing)
📣 Releases toxins from the body
📣 Helps to overcome addictions

Comprehensive training manual included
Whether you feel called to walk Reiki as a path of spiritual awakening or simply desire to learn how to heal yourself through energy work, this training offers a safe, heart-centered sanctuary for your growth.
You will be held in a compassionate, judgment-free space where empowerment unfolds naturally. Regardless of personal or worldly challenges, you are supported within a steadfast community devoted to integrity, ongoing guidance, and holistic learning.

If you have never experienced group breathwork, this is a beautiful doorway to discover its life-changing potential. When we breathe intentionally—especially in community—the breath becomes more than air. It becomes a bridge: between body and spirit, heart and mind, self and collective. Each inhale draws us inward; each exhale releases what no longer serves, creating space for clarity, calm, and renewal.
This immersive breathwork experience is lovingly enhanced with gentle movement, guided meditation, sound, Reiki, and supported emotional release, creating a safe and nurturing space for deep restoration and self-connection. You are encouraged to arrive as you are, allowing the breath to meet you exactly where you stand.
What to bring: Yoga mat, Blanket(s), Bolster/pillow, and eyemask (available for $1 if needed)
This is a FREE, IN-PERSON event, offered in the spirit of unity and shared healing, and to honor the sacred space, advance registration is REQUIRED!
Come breathe with us. Let your breath become a prayer, a grounding, and a quiet offering of peace to yourself—and to the world.

Client Love
I cannot say enough what an incredible experience breathwork with Heather Hovis was. If you’re looking for a way to get into your calm and relaxing element, look no further.
This experience takes your mind, soul, and body to a new level. I was pregnant during my experience and the connection with my baby and my body was something I’ve never felt. It was joyful and awakening.
Heather is extremely knowledgeable in her craft and makes the experience one that you’ll want to add to your everyday routine. This should be something everyone experiences!

Breathwork Client
When you have a one-on-one breathwork session with Heather, you can expect a supportive + self environment where you can feel free to explore your inner self.
She did a great job of going over the breathwork practice and explaining what to expect physically and mentally, tailoring the session to my needs.
The experience was amazing! My body felt so vibrant after the session was over.
I’m so grateful that Heather introduced me to breathwork and her magnetic energy. I will definitely do it again!
