Allen County sits in northwestern Ohio, with Lima as both its county seat and its largest city, and the 2020 census counted 102,206 residents across its 407 square miles. The Ascension School of Healing Arts, based in Ferndale, Michigan, offers Reiki and energy healing study to Allen County through the live Zoom class and through self-study courses. A student in Lima, Delphos, Bluffton or Spencerville can learn from home.
Allen County comprises the entire Lima metropolitan statistical area and the entire Lima, OH media market, so many households here share one regional calendar. That calendar includes the Allen County Fair every August, events at the Veterans Memorial Civic and Convention Center, and terms at the shared Ohio State University at Lima and Rhodes State College campus. Online classes and self-study courses let you fit Reiki around that full local life.
Allen County was formed in 1820 and is named for Colonel John Allen, who was killed leading his men at the Battle of Frenchtown during the War of 1812. The first permanent settlement inside its present bounds came in 1824, when Christopher S. Wood and his family settled in Bath Township. The first court was held in August 1831 at the cabin of James Daniels on the bank of the Ottawa River.
Oil was discovered in Lima in 1885, beginning a boom in Allen County that lasted until after 1910. Lima was also the home of the Lima Locomotive Works, which built the famous Shay geared steam locomotives and later super power steam engines. A county that built engines and refined oil understands steady, patient practice, and Reiki study rewards that same patient repetition, one session at a time.
Delphos grew along the old Miami and Erie Canal, completed in 1845, and the canal town of Spencerville was laid out along it in 1844. Bluffton is the village home to Bluffton University. Students from each of these Allen County communities can join the same live Zoom class, learning alongside classmates from Lima and the rest of the county without leaving home.
Allen County also offers good places for a quiet moment after a lesson. Faurot Park in Lima is a large historic public park with Schoonover Lake, and the Ottawa River flows through Lima and the county. The Allen County Museum, operated by the Allen County Historical Society, holds the MacDonell House and railroad exhibits that echo the county's locomotive past.
Donna Lakes, teaching since 1999, leads the live Zoom class with a warm, grounded, practical style. Reiki is taught as a gentle practice for relaxation and personal balance, and the live Zoom class gives you time to ask questions and practice with guidance. You join from your own space anywhere in Allen County, Ohio.
Self-study courses let you learn at your own pace. That helps whether your day runs by the four-faced clock on the Allen County Courthouse tower in Lima or by a farm schedule shaped around the August fair that has run in Lima since 1851. You can pair the self-study courses with the live Zoom class, or use either one on its own.
