Reiki for The Rock, by Live Zoom

Little Rock takes its name from a small stone outcropping on the south bank of the Arkansas River that French explorer Bénard de la Harpe called la petite roche in 1722, and early travelers used it as a marker to know where they stood. Part of that rock still rests beneath the Junction Bridge on the riverbank, even though much of the original formation was quarried away for railroad construction.

ASHA brings Reiki and energy work to Little Rock through the live Zoom class and through self-study courses, so a person in the city can learn from a home desk, a porch chair or a quiet bedroom. Our teacher Donna Lakes has been teaching since 1999, and each live Zoom class leaves room for questions, guided practice and honest conversation with other learners.

A Capital That Kept Its Simple Name

Little Rock was founded June 1, 1821 as the capital of Arkansas Territory, after the earlier territorial seat at Arkansas Post proved prone to flooding. An early effort tried to make the official name Arkopolis, but the plain name tied to the stone on the river stuck, and residents recently voted The Rock as the modern civic nickname.

That choice of a steady, plain name fits the way a beginning Reiki practice grows. A student in Little Rock might set aside a few calm moments each evening after the live Zoom class, repeating the same simple hand positions until they feel familiar, the way a landmark becomes familiar after you pass it often.

Practice Along the River and the Foothills

The Big Dam Bridge is a 4,226-foot pedestrian and bicycle span over the Arkansas River, and it forms part of the Arkansas River Trail, a paved loop of about 17 miles linking Little Rock and North Little Rock. A student in Little Rock might take a slow walk across that bridge to settle the mind, then come home and open a self-study lesson while the river breeze is still fresh.

Little Rock sits where the flat delta gives way to the Ouachita foothills, and Pinnacle Mountain State Park, a roughly 2,000-acre park with a cone-shaped peak, lies just west of the city. Our self-study courses can be paused and replayed, so a learner can practice a grounding exercise after a morning outdoors and return to the same lesson whenever it feels right.

Fitting Classes Around the Little Rock Calendar

Life in Little Rock has its own rhythm: the Little Rock Marathon on the first Saturday of March, the World Cheese Dip Championship crowning Big Dipper champions each October, Arkansas Travelers baseball, and Razorback football weekends when the golf course around War Memorial Stadium closes for tailgating. Self-study courses let a learner shift lessons around those busy weekends without falling behind.

Local temperatures have ranged from minus 12 degrees in 1899 to 114 degrees on August 3, 2011, so some days in Little Rock are best spent indoors. On a scorching August afternoon or an icy winter night, the live Zoom class is a comfortable way to keep learning Reiki with a teacher and a small group, right from your own chair.
