Reiki Learning for Arequipa, Below Misti, Chachani and Pichu Pichu

In Arequipa, the Misti, Chachani and Pichu Pichu volcanoes are visible from almost any point in the city, and that steady view makes a fitting backdrop for a quiet Reiki practice. People in Arequipa can join the live Zoom class from home and keep those peaks in sight while they learn hand positions and grounding exercises.

The Ascension School of Healing Arts is based in Ferndale, Michigan, and Donna Lakes has been teaching since 1999. Through the live Zoom class and self-study courses, people living on either bank of the Chili River in Arequipa can learn Reiki without leaving their own neighborhood.

A Learning City Meets a Live Zoom Class

Arequipa joined the UNESCO Global Network of Learning Cities in 2020, a sign that this city in southern Peru values learning at every stage of life. Live Zoom classes and self-study courses in Reiki fit that spirit, giving adults in Arequipa one more way to keep studying something new.

Each live Zoom class lets you ask questions, practice alongside others and hear the teacher in real time. Self-study courses let you return to the material whenever your week allows, so you can build a steady habit at your own pace.

Quiet Practice in a City of Sillar Stone and Old Convents

In 2000 UNESCO inscribed 332 hectares of Arequipa's historic center as a World Heritage Site, and there eighteenth-century manor houses such as Casa del Moral and Casa Tristán del Pozo were built in sillar stone with baroque portals. A city shaped by that kind of patient, careful work may feel at home with a practice built on stillness and steady attention.

The convents of Santa Catalina and Santa Teresa became centers of sociability, written culture and artistic patronage in Arequipa. Reiki study carries a similar mix of quiet reflection and shared community, and the live Zoom class brings that to anyone in Arequipa with an internet connection.

Fitting Reiki Into Life in Peru's Legal Capital

Arequipa is known as the legal capital of Peru, is the official seat of the Constitutional Court of Peru, and is also the country's second most industrialized city. For people in Arequipa with full workdays in the courts, in manufacturing or in textiles made from camelid wool, self-study courses offer a flexible way to learn Reiki around a busy schedule.

As Peru's second most populous city after Lima, Arequipa keeps a lively pace, and a short Reiki practice each day can bring a calm pause. Whether you live near the picanterías, recognized in 2014 as cultural heritage of the nation, or toward the edge of Arequipa where the Andes rise to the north and east, the live Zoom class is open to you.
