FALLOWEEN PARTY

Falloween is almost here! Jen and Ruth look forward to seeing you this Sunday, October 20th, at 3 o'clock at their home at 400 Northridge Dr, Tiger, GA for games (complete with prizes), pumpkin carving, visiting, and good food - including the chili contest!


For those participating in the chili contest, please plan on arriving in time for chili to be set up and ready for tasting by 3:30. Carpooling is definitely appreciated as we may have to double stack the parking.

FIRST-DEGREE REIKI TRAINING CLASS

REIKI is the Japanese word for Universal Life Force Energy. REIKI is a gentle, non-manipulative type of energy therapy and relaxation technique with in-depth healing abilities for the body, mind, and spirit. During the first-degree Reiki class, you will learn universal principles of healing, the history of Reiki, and how to give full body treatments to yourself and others (family, friends, animals).

 

A Reiki master initiates you into Reiki and shares the philosophy and background about this hands-on healing. The class will be on Saturday morning November 16 and November 23.

 

Reiki instructor, Marie Dunkle, first began practicing Reiki in 1991 and achieved Reiki Master level in 1995. She was taught in the traditional Usui Shiki Reiki Ryoho natural healing system whose lineage of teachers is traced back to Dr. Mikao Usui, the founder of Reiki.

 

Interested in learning? Contact Marie Dunkle at 770.335.0967.
