Hartford has long been called the insurance capital of the world, and even America's filing cabinet, ever since the Hartford Fire Insurance Company was chartered in 1810. A city built on careful records and long office days gives a person good reason to want a quiet stretch of time that belongs only to them. People in Hartford can join the live Zoom class from ASHA, a Reiki and energy healing school based in Ferndale, Michigan, from wherever they already are.
A student in Hartford might log in after a day at Aetna, Travelers or The Hartford, or after work in state government, and spend the evening learning hand positions and simple breathing practices. The live Zoom class keeps a real teacher and real classmates on the screen, so questions get answered as they come up and nobody has to learn alone.
Hartford holds an unusual record of longevity. The Wadsworth Atheneum is the oldest continuously operating public art museum in the United States, Bushnell Park is the second-oldest publicly funded park in the country, and the Hartford Courant, founded in 1764, is the oldest continuously published newspaper in the nation.
Reiki asks for the same patience that has kept those Hartford institutions going: you come back to the practice day after day. ASHA's self-study courses let a learner in Hartford move through lessons at a comfortable pace, then bring questions to the live Zoom class whenever they want a teacher's eye on their progress.
Mark Twain wrote Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer while living in Hartford and called it the most beautiful town he had seen. Harriet Beecher Stowe, author of Uncle Tom's Cabin, lived next door to him in the Nook Farm neighborhood, and in 1796 the first American cookbook, Amelia Simmons's American Cookery, was published in the city.
A student in Hartford might keep a short notebook after each session, in the spirit of a city so full of writers, noting what they noticed in their breath and posture. Our courses encourage that kind of steady reflection, and the live Zoom class is a friendly place to share what you wrote down.
Dutch traders built Fort Hoop, the House of Hope, here around 1623, and English settlers led by Thomas Hooker named the town for Hertford, England, in 1637. A 1638 sermon by Hooker helped inspire the Fundamental Orders of Connecticut, an early written framework of self-government that still shapes how Hartford tells its own story.
Self-government is a fitting idea for Reiki, which a person first learns to offer to themselves. People in Hartford can join ASHA through live Zoom classes or self-study courses and build a daily practice that fits around a Hartford Yard Goats game at Dunkin' Park or a night of theater at the Bushnell Center for the Performing Arts.
