Reiki with Beth Scibienski

Reiki is a Japanese technique 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. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words: Rei,which translates to “God’s Wisdom,” and Ki, which is “life force energy.” In this regard, Reiki actually means “spiritually guided life force energy.” Pastor of Grace Presbyterian Church and Reiki Master, Beth Scibienski, seeks to connect the personal energy to the moving, creative, healing energy that she calls the Holy Spirit.

Beth was trained in Usui Reiki by Andrew Appello, a clinical herbalist and licensed acupuncturist. Each session will include a chance to talk about what it is that brings you to a reiki session, a centering meditation and healing touch.

Location: Sand Hills Community Wellness Center, 57 Sand Hills Road, Kendall Park. To make an appointment for an individual session, email Beth at [email protected].
