Livingston County, Michigan is where metro Detroit runs out of subdivisions and into lakes, at the crossing of I-96 and US-23. People across the county can join ASHA's live Zoom class from home, whether that home is in Howell, the county seat, or in Brighton, the largest city in the county. The screen is the classroom, and the lessons arrive wherever you are.
Donna Lakes has been teaching since 1999, and the live Zoom class gives a person in Livingston County the same lessons, practice time and open questions that every other group shares. Self-study courses fill the gaps for anyone whose week does not line up with a scheduled class, so you can review a hand position or a lesson again whenever it suits you.
Livingston County is part of the Detroit-Warren-Dearborn metropolitan area and has been among Michigan's fastest-growing counties. New households keep arriving, and growth like that can make a quiet, repeatable home practice feel welcome. A student in Brighton might set aside one corner of a new home for a short daily self-Reiki session guided by the live Zoom class.
With I-96, US-23 and M-59 all crossing the county, plenty of days here are full and fast. A student in Howell might want something calm to return to at the end of that kind of day, and a self-study course can be opened late in the evening, early in the morning, or on a slow Sunday without any schedule to meet.
The Huron River rises in the Livingston County area and flows south and east through the region, and the county holds a remarkable amount of open land. The Pinckney Recreation Area has more than 20 lakes and the 17-mile Potawatomi Trail, a regional institution for mountain biking. A student in Pinckney might come home from the trail and settle into a slow breathing and hand-position practice on the live Zoom class.
Kensington Metropark sits on Kent Lake along the Livingston and Oakland county line, and Island Lake State Recreation Area is the only Michigan state park with a hot air balloon launch area. In winter, Mount Brighton opens its runs to skiers and snowboarders. Reiki practice asks for very little gear by comparison: a chair, a quiet room and a connection to the live Zoom class.
The county was named for Edward Livingston, US secretary of state under Andrew Jackson, which makes it one of Michigan's ten cabinet counties. Howell was originally called Livingston Center, and the historic Howell Opera House downtown served as an Underground Railroad station sheltering freedom seekers. That sense of a community looking after people runs deep in this county's story.
The Michigan Challenge Balloonfest has been held in Howell since 1985, the Howell Melon Festival celebrates the locally grown Howell melon each August, and Hell, an unincorporated community inside the Pinckney Recreation Area, hand-postmarks mail at a seasonal postal substation. A student in Hell might join the live Zoom class on a winter night when the news is busy reporting that Hell has frozen over.
