3-days/2-nights
at
Rockywold-Deephaven Camps
(Holderness, NH)
Hello Reiki Community.
I am so excited to be sharing with all of you this incredible opportunity. We are fortunate to have secured time at Rockywold-Deephaven Camps, and I’m thrilled to be announcing the first of a yearly Reiki Retreat at this picturesque and pristine location. Here is a link to highlighting some of the aspects of Rockywold-Deephaven Camps.
The history and beauty of, not only Squam Lake and the White Mountains that border it, but of the Camps themselves, will foster layer upon layer of enriching experiences. Adding to the location and an all-inclusive retreat will be the gift of sharing community with other Reiki trained individuals and their partners. We have wonderful activities and Reiki Shares planned, as well as time to kayak, hike, swim, relax on a dock, listen to the loon’s call as the sun sets & rises over the lake, be warmed by your own cottages’s fireplace, join a morning or evening meditation, dream, and take in the beauty and magic of the surrounding landscape.
Come together to explore, ignite and share Reiki and each other.
* All lineages ~ All levels * (and partners)
So, SAVE THE DATE !!!!!!
All-inclusive 3-day/2-night retreat $485. Space is limited. Contact us for more information and to register.
Much has gone on in this past year. Through all my adventures: my massage & Reiki practice, teaching Reiki classes, water aerobics, infant toddler swim lessons, kayaking/hiking/skiing/snowshoeing, community, returning to North Sandwich, my son’s injury, and dancing with the challenges of the journey, I continue to be filled with gratitude & appreciation, and a clear knowing that the gift of each other and the breath of life offers profound opportunity & beauty.
Advancing my training in massage theory and technique has been a strong focus over the past year. Working with James Waslaski ~orthopedic massage~ has validated and enhanced what I bring to the table. Here is a terrific brief video describing many of my thoughts about pain and massage… Tom Myers. I feel it is ALL about the fascial system. I also think that, in the not too far future, medical science will label the fascial system as “the energy system of the body”. I continue investigating ongoing research, history, medical inclusion and advancement in the world of Reiki. I have recently accepted a position on the CoR Conference committee (a committee that organizes and coordinates a well attended yearly Reiki conference held in Boston, as well as coordinating symposiums and educational opportunities for the Reiki community).
I am fortunate to daily create opportunity for clients to reduce the impact of imbalances/injuries/pain/stress/tension. It is a privilege & a joy to witness clients identify and adjust life patterns, become educated and practiced with how to maintain improvements made on the massage table, and to find relief and comfort.
Restorative Yoga & Reiki Classes at Dragonfly Yoga Barn continue to be sold out events… ~over sold~ we always seem to make room for those added bodies. Katie & I join hearts, hands and talents to bring a completely bliss~filled class to participants.
Squam Reiki Retreat (SRR) (film of squam)(~date to be announced~). This is a unique opportunity to experience one of the most beautiful & pristine lakes to be found. A retreat for Reiki trained participants, of any lineage and level, to come together to explore, embrace, and share Reiki and each other. There will be a full program of Reiki Shares and activities, such as Restorative Reiki class, Sunday evening event, daily meditations, and open panel discussions. Participants enjoy RDC’s lakeside accommodations (each cabin has its own fireplace), delicious meals, kayaking, hiking, relaxing on your personal porch or dock, creating community and experiencing the magic and beauty of Squam. Contact Peace of Mind for this all inclusive opportunity.
Reiki training. I am in awe with every class, how different and wonderful each one is; always, just the right number, people & place. A 5 week level 1 training was held at Lakes Region Nutrition Center. We met Monday evenings for 2+ hours each week. Each class had the opportunity to review, question, and practice, along with gradually introducing new information. This style of program creates a stong platform for a personal practice. Where the retreat and weekend style trainings provides for creating a container of nurturing the whole being in a way that can profoundly shift things. Contact Peace of Mind for up coming trainings.
Reiki Share adventures. I am in the process of creating some all day opportunities for Reiki trained individuals to get together for outdoor adventures. Peace of Mind is fortunate to be in Paradise! So, why not share the gift of our hands, hearts and some good sweat as we play in the wilds of the Whites and beyond. Paddling ~ Hiking ~ Biking ~ and more. Contact Peace of Mind to inquire and find out when, where and how our next adventure will manifest.
Artisian’s Weekend at Purity Spring is now in it’s 3rd year. The weekend offers classes in a variety of mediums. I will be offering Meditation, Sound Healing, Reiki, & Journaling. Take some time to nourish all aspects of yourself: physical, emotional, spiritual and creative. There are two offerings. One incorporating meditation, supported by sound and Reiki, and concluding with journaling and discussion. The 2nd incorporates meditation, supported by sound and Reiki, ~followed by a silent walking meditation (with our journals) to the magical bog within the Audubon sanctuary, returning to share and close our experience. Contact the above link for all the information.

I look forward to the adventures ahead and hold gratitude for the gift of this life.

Included in this training are:
* Reiki aura clearing * crystal clearing * learning of and creating a crystal grid * attunement to the master level vibration (you’re attuned to the higher vibration of the master symbol. This strengthens and enhances Reiki energy. However, the actual attunement and training to use the master symbol is part of a master level training ) * meditation to more fully connect your chakras with Reiki energy * journaling * a review of Reiki and new information * clearing old habits, instilling new ones * support to keeping oneself clear and balanced.
Added to this training is a unique opportunity to explore and begin incorporating sound into your Reiki experience. This work combines the vibrations created as we say, sing or chant the names of Reiki symbols and ride them along the vibration of a sound instrument to bring powerful energy and focus to our practice.
Class size is limited to 8 participants. Contact Leslie to reserve your spot or inquire.

************************************* 2010 Our November Retreat was a powerful experience. The magnificent and spiritual setting of Dragonfly Yoga Barn, along with the beautiful spirits that joined us, provided a life changing event for all. Thank you Katie and Declan for your heart, beauty, humor, and yummy food. This setting truly provides the opportunity to invest ourselves in our training and bring the light and love of Reiki into our lives. Training in a Retreat setting allows the meditation, journaling, yoga, fellowship and spiritual practice to mold into a completeness that I’ve not found elsewhere. ************************************** I’ve just returned from the International Reiki Retreat in Lake George NY. What an amazing opportunity to commune with others living Reiki and sharing their Light. The program had a solid variety of informative and interactive sessions with many opportunities to talk with others and share ideas, plans, and yes, Reiki. I loved hearing about the studies involving Reiki and other Energy Medicines that are finding their way into mainstream science. I would encourage all who read this post to visit William Rand’s sites, as well as Peace Place in Sedona. Blessings and may the Light of Love shine in your heart. ******************************************** I find such joy in creating a Retreat and Training that infuses meditation, gentle yoga, journaling, music, walks in the forest, “Restorative Reiki,” Sound Healing, and so much more. I hope you’ll consider coming to these magical mountains to share in the amazing gift of Reiki and exploration. There is a strong focus on supporting a “SELF” practice. This is also a good opportunity for anyone who has already taken Reiki I and II to grow deeper into their practice. Blessings and Light to all. This is a unique opportunity to learn the art of Usui Tibetan Reiki in a sacred and spiritual place that mystics, yoga and Reiki teachers, Ki Gong masters, and visitors alike have called one of the “most beautiful and powerful places on earth.” email: peaceofmindreiki@gmail.com or call: (603) 284-7124 May the Light of Love Forever Dance in Your Heart
