Reclaim Yourself: A Yoga and Reiki Infusion will take place at Luna Power Yoga, in Mahopac, on October 15, from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Studio owner Cate Bartilucci will provide a short but sweet grounding yoga practice in preparation for Jill Arena to lend her healing hands through a small-group restorative reiki session. 

Arena is a reiki master, yoga teacher and intuitive who specializes in blending intuitive energy healing with modern, Western approaches to nervous system regulation. A Brewster, New York, native, Arena now lives in North Carolina and takes clients from all over the country, both virtually and in person. 

“During this specialty class, you can expect to cozy up and drop into a resting pose with pillows and blankets,” says Bartilucci. “Jill will then perform reiki—a gentle form of energy healing— for 45 minutes. To wrap up this special class, you will have the opportunity to journal: Unlock your experience and highlight any breakthroughs that are unique to you through free writing and guided prompts.”

Journals and writing utensils will be provided to each participant. Participants are encouraged to wear cozy, comfortable clothing and bring their own pillow, light blanket and yoga mat. There will be plenty of time after the session to connect with one another with snacks and tea provided by the studio.
