What Is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese healing technique that involves the transfer of energy from a practitioner’s hands to the recipient’s body. It comes from Japanese rei, meaning universal, and ki, which is life energy. It is based on the belief that this energy can promote physical, emotional, and spiritual healing by restoring balance and harmony within the individual.
During a session, practitioners place their hands over different areas of a person’s body and transfer healing energy. Reiki is often used as a complementary therapy in conjunction with conventional medical treatments to alleviate discomfort and stress.
What Are Sound Baths?
Participants relax and immerse themselves in the melodies from instruments such as crystal or Tibetan bowls, gongs, and chimes. The instructor strikes the instruments to bathe everyone in the sound waves carrying healing properties. The goal is to reach a meditative state of consciousness and allow the energy of the sound to balance your chakras and heal your body and mind.
What Are The Benefits?
The energy in Reiki heals us in so many ways; from physical aches and pains to emotional stress and trauma. It can:
- Reduce anxiety & depression.
- Improve effects of stress & fatigue.
- Enhance quality of life.
- Ease physical injuries & ailments.
Sound baths with crystal or Tibetan bowls offer many benefits for our mind and body too:
- Mental clarity
- Increased creativity
- Calm and peaceful feelings
- Mood balance

More About Picketpost Mountain
Just south of Superior, this mountain stands alone on the edge of the Sonoran Desert! It’s a mesa peak consisting of 18 million year old lava flows. With many connecting trails and several false summits it can be tricky to find the top. But following the painted arrows, you’ll know you found the true summit when you see a mailbox. It should be filled with notes from other hikers – feel free to leave your own message behind!
At 4,378′ high, the valley and other grand mountain ranges like the Superstitions are visible in the distance. Picketpost mountain is home to a variety of unique wildlife, so don’t be surprised if you see a Kudamundi near the trail!

Archetypal Dance Adventure Through the Major Arcana
Come dance the night away with us on Friday April 5th! We will have an ecstatic dancing class at 7:00pm the first Friday of every month at ZenLife Center for Healing. Led by our instructor Kristina Rich, the Archetypal Dance Adventure event includes tarot readings, visualizations, and embodied dancing.
What Is Ecstatic Dancing?
Ecstatic dancing is a style of free form movement that allows for all participants to move their bodies in whatever way feels right – there are no rules, steps, or expectations! This type of dance is extremely therapeutic. But it requires releasing all your constraints and inhibitions and surrendering to the rhythm of the music.
As you dance, you may experience a state of ecstasy (hence, “ecstatic” dancing) and bliss. This practice has roots in ancient Greece with religious ties to their gods and myths. The Greek origin of the word “ekstasis” means to get out of oneself. This type of self-expression was and is still a common religious practice in many cultures.
What Are The Benefits?
Allowing yourself the chance to let go and be free through healthy movement comes with a myriad of benefits! The exercise aspect alone is great for your health and produces endorphins that can improve your mood and outlook. The combination of music and rhythm, unrestrained movement, and meditative state of consciousness can lead to:
- Inspiration & revelation
- Self-confidence
- Healing from trauma
- Stress & anxiety relief
- Mind-body connection
- Releasing pent-up emotions
- Feelings of happiness and euphoria
First Friday Dance Night at ZenLife Center for Healing
Make ecstatic dancing part of your routine with our monthly class every first Friday! A dynamic, liberating experience awaits you. Sign up here for a spot in our class this month! We’ll see you there.
