Mimi Rhys, LMT, of Phoenix Healing Arts, in Brighton, will present an encore class on Shamballa Reiki I from 1 to 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, May 20, Rhys, a Shamballa master healer who has been teaching and practicing since 2002, says Shamballa is a higher-energy level of Reiki than the more commonly known Usui style. “The healing abilities people acquire when they learn Shamballa are as powerful as any other Reiki, but they are only a by-product,” Rhys explains. “The major purpose of attunement is to allow students to bring in higher energies that will enhance the spiritual evolution and wholeness of the world.”

Rhys presented the Shamballa workshop earlier this year and is bringing it back by popular demand. “There were so many people who wanted the first class that I had to create a second one,” she says. She also will run a level 2 class for students. Shamballa classes require less time and money than traditional Reiki classes, says Rhys, which enables more people to participate. The $50 fee includes materials and a Reiki attunement, and a deposit is required to hold a place in the class. The Brighton location information will be given to all registrants.
