Nebraska takes its name from Otoe and Omaha words meaning flat water, a description of the Platte River that crosses the state. Wherever you live along that river, in Omaha, in Lincoln, or out in the Panhandle, you can join the live Zoom class in Reiki and energy healing from the Ascension School of Healing Arts without leaving home.
Our teacher, Donna Lakes, has been teaching since 1999. Each live Zoom class gives you real time with her. You can ask questions, practice alongside others on screen, and hear how fellow learners describe their sessions. People across Nebraska can join from a kitchen table, a farmhouse office or a downtown apartment.
Two time zones divide Nebraska. Most of the state runs on Central time, while the Panhandle and neighboring counties run on Mountain time. When you register, check the class time against your own clock, since a session that begins at a given hour in Omaha or Lincoln starts one hour earlier by the clock in the Panhandle.
A student in the Sandhills or near the Wildcat Hills might find that the live Zoom class fits neatly around a working day on Mountain time. A student in Nebraska might also pair a live Zoom class with self-study lessons on the evenings that suit them best, so the two formats support each other.
So few trees grew on the Nebraska prairie that many of the first farming families built houses of sod, making good use of what the land offered. Self-study courses follow a similarly practical spirit: you work with the materials in front of you, at the pace your days allow, and return to them whenever you are ready.
Self-study works well when farm work, rail shifts or a busy household change your schedule from week to week. A student in Nebraska might read a lesson, practice the hand positions at home, and bring questions to the live Zoom class later, ready to talk them through with Donna and the group.
Nebraska is the only state in which every electric utility is publicly owned, a quiet reminder that shared resources can belong to the people who use them. Reiki fits that idea well. Once you learn it, the practice is yours to keep, and you can bring it into your own home and daily routine.
Arbor Day was founded at Nebraska City, and the patience of planting something that grows slowly suits Reiki practice too. A few minutes of steady practice each day can become as familiar as a row of trees you watched grow from saplings, season after season across the Cornhusker State.
