Seattle is the largest city in the Pacific Northwest, set between Puget Sound and Lake Washington beneath the gaze of Mount Rainier. For people in this lush, evergreen Emerald City who feel drawn to Reiki, the Ascension School of Healing Arts offers a simple way to begin: the live Zoom class and self-study courses, joined from wherever you already are.
ASHA is a Reiki and energy-healing school based in Ferndale, Michigan, and the live Zoom class lets people in Seattle learn alongside a real teacher and a real group, asking questions as they come up. The self-study courses sit beside that option for anyone who prefers to work through the material at their own pace.
Seattle's story is full of fresh starts. Settlers of the Denny Party landed at Alki Point in 1851 and soon relocated to the deeper harbor of Elliott Bay. After the Great Seattle Fire of 1889, the downtown business district was rebuilt at a higher grade, leaving the old street level below as today's Pioneer Square underground.
The city carries the name of Chief Si'ahl (Chief Seattle), a leader of the Duwamish and Suquamish peoples who were the region's original inhabitants. Reiki practice asks for a similar kind of patience with beginnings: you return to the basics, rest your attention, and build steadily, one session at a time.
Seattle earned the Jet City nickname from Boeing, founded here in 1916, and today Amazon is headquartered in the city as the state of Washington's largest private employer. The University of Washington is a major employer and research institution too, so many people in Seattle keep full, demanding calendars.
That is where the self-study courses can help, since you can open a lesson when your week allows. When you want the warmth of a group and a teacher's guidance, the live Zoom class brings that to your screen without asking you to rearrange your whole day.
The Seattle year has its own rhythm, from the Seattle Pride Parade in June to the Seafair Torchlight Parade in late July. This is the Coffee Capital of the World, where the original Starbucks opened in Pike Place Market in 1971 and fishmongers famously toss whole fish to fill customer orders.
In a city this lively, and in the gray months that gave Seattle the Rain City nickname, a calm Reiki practice can be a grounded counterweight. People in Seattle can join the live Zoom class from a favorite chair at home and carry what they learn into ordinary days.
