Cincinnati rises on seven hills above a bend of the Ohio River, and people living anywhere on those hills can join the Ascension School of Healing Arts through the live Zoom class. You learn with a real teacher and real classmates in real time, from a kitchen table in Over-the-Rhine or a quiet room at home.
The Queen City has always been a place that kept things practical and unpretentious, and ASHA teaches Reiki the same way. Each live Zoom class gives you clear steps, time for questions, and a calm pace, so people in Cincinnati can learn energy healing without rearranging a whole week.
Cincinnati was settled in 1788 on the north bank near the confluence of the Licking and Ohio rivers, first called Losantiville before taking its current name in 1790. A town that began where two rivers meet has a long habit of gathering people together, and a shared Zoom class carries that spirit into a small group setting.
The city grew as a river port once the first steamboat arrived in 1811, and later served as a key Underground Railroad station and home to prominent abolitionists. That history of neighbors showing up for one another sits well with Reiki, which ASHA teaches as a quiet, caring practice shared between people.
Life in Cincinnati keeps a full calendar, from the Flying Pig Marathon to Oktoberfest Zinzinnati, which is billed as the largest Oktoberfest in America. Between Reds games, Bengals Sundays and Saturday mornings at Findlay Market, Ohio's oldest continuously operated public market, a Reiki session on Zoom fits easily into a busy week.
Cincinnati folks who love a 3-way from Skyline or a plate of goetta already know the value of a familiar ritual done well. A few calm minutes of Reiki practice can become a ritual of its own, whether you sit with it before work or after an evening by the riverfront at Smale Riverfront Park.
Not everyone in the Queen City can block out the same hour each week, so ASHA also offers self-study courses. You can move through the lessons at your own pace, replay what you need, and come back to the material whenever a quiet moment appears in your Cincinnati routine.
Donna Lakes has been teaching since 1999, and her approach stays warm, grounded and practical whether you join the live Zoom class or work through a self-study course. Some people like to carry what they learn into a peaceful spot such as Eden Park, the historic hilltop park overlooking the Ohio River, for a few still breaths.
